Association between the magnitude of periprocedural myocardial injury and prognosis in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention.


ABSTRACT:

Aims

This study aimed to investigate the prognostic implications of increased post-procedural cardiac troponin levels in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to define the threshold of prognostically relevant periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI).

Methods and results

A total of 3249 patients with normal baseline troponin levels referred for elective PCI were enrolled and followed up for a median period of 20 months. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) comprising all-cause death, myocardial injury (MI), and ischaemic stroke. Post-PCI high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) >99% upper reference limit (URL) occurred in 78.3% of the patients and did not increase the risk of MACEs [adjusted hazard ratio (adHR) 1.00, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.58-1.74, P = 0.990], nor did 'major PMI', defined as post-PCI hs-cTnT >5× URL (adHR 1.30, 95% CI 0.76-2.23, P = 0.340). Post-PCI troponin >8× URL, with an incidence of 15.2%, started to show an association with a higher risk of MACEs (adHR 1.89, 95% CI 1.06-3.37, P = 0.032), mainly driven by myocardial infarction (adHR 2.38, 95% CI 1.05-5.38, P = 0.037) and ischaemic stroke (adHR 3.35, 95% CI 1.17-9.64, P = 0.025).

Conclusion

In patients with normal baseline troponin values undergoing elective PCI, PMI defined as hs-cTnT >8× URL after PCI was more appropriate for identifying patients with an increased risk of MACEs, which may help guide clinical practice in this population.
