Relative risks (RR) with two-side 95% CI were reported, and these associations were adjusted for the TIMI Risk Score for STEMI.

22 PI Strategy: Rescue angiography 40% STEMI pts presenting <3 h failed to reperfuse & received rescue angiography ~ 130 min post TNK Had higher baseline risk by clinical and ECG parameters ; Only ant MI & body weight predicted need for rescue; Following rescue PCI, ECG metrics and angio outcomes worse than those undergoing schedule angio post TNK Had increased 30 day events compared to successful fibrinolysis & ppci Welsh et al AHA 2013

23 Welsh et al AHA 2013 PI Strategy: Scheduled Angiography 60% of STEMI pts presenting < 3 h Sx onset successfully reperfused. Subsequent scheduled angio 18 hours revealed: Excellent angiographic, ECG metrics & clinical outcomes; A 2 fold lower risk of the composite 30 day endpoint than those receiving primary PCI (caveat post hoc sub gp) Measured approach to revasc: more medical Rx & CABG 1/5 th pts were managed medically i.e. no clinical need for revascularization after successful fibrinolysis 5.4% underwent CABG vs. 2.2% with primary PCI

24 Rescue: Clinical Implications* Pre-specified evaluation STEMI pts presenting <3 hrs affirms: Importance of vigilance with prompt coronary angio for STEMI pts who fail to reperfuse following fibrinolysis Enhanced understanding of PI strategy dynamics in early presenting STEMI pts unable to receive ppci < 60 min Key prognostic insights provided by post reperfusion worst lead residual ST elevation Per protocol, post hoc sub groups but unique large data set & pre-specified analysis * Welsh et al AHA 2013

25 Reperfusion Decision Making Overview Brief re-cap key primary result PCI-related delay: It s about time Rescue PCI Aborted MI Aligning STEMI care with guidelines: a reality check

26 Aborted MI Pre Reperfusion Post

27 Aborted MI: Background Aborted MI is defined by : 50 % resolution in ST-segment elevation Absent or minimal rise in cardiac biomarkers AbMI has been associated with smaller infarcts, better LV function and improved outcomes. 3 Prior studies examined AbMI after both fibrinolysis & P- PCI but no direct prospective comparison has been performed. ¹ Lamfers EJ et al., Am J Cardiol. 1999; ² Taher T et al. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2004; ³ Patel MR et al., Am Heart J 2013

29 Aborted MI: Objectives Compare incidence AbMI in pharmaco-invasive vs. P-PCI arms of STREAM (pre-specified) Evaluate characteristics associated with AbMI & relationship to 30-day events irrespective of Rx Examine the relationship between AbMI & the clinical outcomes according to Rx

30 Aborted MI: Study Cohort Study Population 1754 Group A, Pharmaco-invasive (893) Group B, Primary PCI (861) AbMI (99:11.1%) P <0.001 AbMI (59: 6.9%)

31 STREAM Group A Aborted MI (for presentation AHA 2013) Baseline 90-min post TNK Pre-cath Baseline ECG Random ization TNK 90min post T ECG :22 12:33 12:40 14:11 11 July 2009

32 AbMI: Sig Associated Factors Significant factors Q wave at baseline in the infarct territory ΣST-deviation at baseline per mm OR, 95% CI Wald P value 0.44 ( ) 0.96 ( ) 12.6 < Symptom onset to first medical contact (hr) 0.74 ( )

33 * Adjusted for the TIMI Risk Score. AbMI: Clinical Outcomes

34 AbMI: Conclusions Overall incidence of AbMI was 9.0% (n=158) Rate of AbMI significantly higher for pharmaco-invasive strategy vs P-PCI, (11.1 vs. 6.9%). AbMI was associated with: improved overall 30-day outcomes; less frequent baseline Q waves; shorter time to FMC from symptom onset; less extensive territory at risk i.e. less ΣST-deviation at baseline. AbMI after pharmaco-invasive therapy had better outcomes primarily related to less shock & heart failure.

35 Reperfusion Decision Making Overview Brief re-cap key primary result PCI-related delay: It s about time Rescue PCI Aborted MI Aligning STEMI care with guidelines: a reality check

36 Questions have been raised about the overreliance on primary PCI for reperfusion, especially in the United States, and the unintended consequences that have evolved as familiarity with fibrinolysis has waned. The writing committee reiterates the principle highlighted in the 2004 ACC/AHA STEMI guideline, namely that the appropriate and timely use of some form of reperfusion therapy is likely more important than the choice of therapy. Greatest emphasis is to be placed on the delivery of reperfusion therapy to the individual patient as rapidly as possible. ACC/AHA STEMI Guidelines 2013

37 STEMI 2014 Take Home Messages We are all interventionalists Time from Sx onset is often imprecise: think baseline Q Rx delayed is Rx denied & costs myocardium & lives Time to reliably achieve successful PCI in an expert 24/7 facility is difficult to predict Dynamic Intersection between risk & time ~ efficacy Build effective STEMI teams: use systems approach incorporating full power novel IT in practice & research

38 Reperfusion Decision-Making 2014 Develop nimble & versatile pre hospital care system including ability to use fibrinolysis: and don t forget the large cohort of STEMI that self present Assess risk of MI & of lysis: ½ dose in 75 yrs* If lysis given: evaluate need rescue/urgent intervention especially in first few hours Transfer high risk lytic pts to PCI centre using a well organized systems based approach(with frequent QA)

39 FAST MI 2005: 5 yr Survival n=1492 Danchin et al ESC 2013

40 If the reperfusion therapy is primary PCI, the goal should be a delay (FMC to wire passage into the culprit artery) of 90 min In high-risk cases with large anterior infarcts & early presenters < 2 h, it should be 60 min) If reperfusion therapy is fibrinolysis, goal is to reduce this delay (FMC to needle) to 30 min.

41 Let s Settle on Achieving Quality Effective: Right drugs / procedures Timely: at right time Rapid Dx and treatment Safe: at right dose and done right Equitable: in all eligible pts Patient centered: considering the individual risks benefits, and values of this patient Cost-effective: and avoiding over-treatment IOM Definition
