Effect of Periprocedural Myocardial Infarction After Initial Revascularization With Left Main PCI in Patients With Recent Myocardial Infarction.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for left main coronary artery disease (LMCAD) may be particularly deleterious in patients with recent myocardial infarction (MI). We sought to determine the rates and prognostic relevance of PMI using different definitions and biomarker thresholds after PCI for LMCAD in patients with recent MI.

Methods

Between January 2004 and December 2016, 442 patients underwent PCI for LMCAD at a median of 3 days after presentation with MI. A total of 350 patients presented with elevated cardiac biomarker levels (349 with serial creatine kinase-myocardial band [CK-MB] and 219 with serial cardiac troponin I (cTnI) values) that were stable or falling before the PCI. In this cohort, PMI withi
