Heart-Brain Team Approach of Acute Myocardial Infarction Complicating Acute Stroke: Characteristics of Guideline-Recommended Coronary Revascularization and Antithrombotic Therapy and Cardiovascular and Bleeding Outcomes.

ABSTRACT: Background Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) infrequently occurs after acute stroke. The Heart-brain team approach has a potential to appropriately manage this poststroke cardiovascular complication. However, clinical outcomes of AMI complicating acute stroke (AMI-CAS) with the heart-brain team approach have not been characterized. The current study investigated cardiovascular outcomes in patients with AMI-CAS managed by a heart-brain team. Methods and Results We retrospectively analyzed 2390 patients with AMI at our institute (January 1, 2007-September 30, 2020). AMI-CAS was defined as the occurrence of AMI within 14 days after acute stroke. Major adverse cerebral/cardiovascular events (cardiac-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and nonfatal stroke) and major bleeding events were compared in subjects with AMI-CAS and those without acute stroke. AMI-CAS was identified in 1.6% of the subjects. Most AMI-CASs (37/39=94.9%) presented ischemic stroke. Median duration of AMI from the onset of acute stroke was 2 days. Patients with AMI-CAS less frequently received primary percutaneous coronary intervention (43.6% versus 84.7%; P<0.001) and dual-antiplatelet therapy (38.5% versus 85.7%; P<0.001), and 33.3% of them did not receive any antithrombotic agents (versus 1.3%; P<0.001). During the observational period (median, 2.4 years [interquartile range, 1.1-4.4 years]), patients with AMI-CAS exhibited a greater likelihood of experiencing major adverse cerebral/cardiovascular events (hazard ratio [HR], 3.47 [95% CI, 1.99-6.05]; P<0.001) and major bleeding events (HR, 3.30 [95% CI, 1.34-8.10]; P=0.009). These relationships still existed even after adjusting for clinical characteristics and medication use (major adverse cerebral/cardiovascular event: HR, 1.87 [95% CI, 1.02-3.42]; P=0.04; major bleeding: HR, 2.67 [95% CI, 1.03-6.93]; P=0.04). Conclusions Under the heart-brain team approach, AMI-CAS was still a challenging disease, reflected by less adoption of primary percutaneous coronary intervention and antithrombotic therapies, with substantially elevated cardiovascular and major bleeding risks. Our findings underscore the need for a further refined approach to mitigate their ischemic/bleeding risks.

Project description:ImportanceAntithrombotic treatment after myocardial infarction (MI) should be individualized based on the patient's risk of ischemic and bleeding events. Uncertainty remains regarding the relative prognostic importance of the 2 types of events, and further study would be useful.ObjectivesTo compare the association of ischemic vs bleeding events with mortality in patients with a recent MI and assess whether the relative mortality risk for the 2 types of events has changed over the past 2 decades.Design, setting, and participantsA cohort study based on nationwide registers in Sweden, 2012-2017, was conducted. Data were analyzed between July 2021 and May 2022. Patients with MI who were discharged alive with antithrombotic therapy (antiplatelet therapy or oral anticoagulation) were included in the analysis.Main outcomes and measuresThe incidence of a first ischemic event (hospitalization for MI or ischemic stroke) or bleeding event (hospitalization with bleeding) up to 1 year after discharge and the mortality risk up to 1 year after each type of event were assessed. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to estimate adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) for 1-year mortality after an ischemic and bleeding event vs no event, and after an ischemic vs bleeding event. Adjusted HRs for mortality after ischemic vs bleeding events were compared among patients discharged in 1997-2000, 2001-2011, and 2012-2017.ResultsOf 86 736 patients discharged after MI in 2012-2017 (median age, 71 [IQR, 62-80] years; 57 287 [66.0%] men), 4039 individuals experienced a first ischemic event (5.7 per 100 person-years) and 3399 experienced a first bleeding event (4.8 per 100 person-years). The mortality rate was 46.2 per 100 person-years after an ischemic event and 27.1 per 100 person-years after a bleeding event. The aHR for 1-year mortality vs no event was 4.16 (95% CI, 3.91-4.43) after an ischemic event and 3.43 (95% CI, 3.17-3.71) after a bleeding event. When the 2 types of events were compared, the aHR was 1.27 (95% CI, 1.15-1.40) for an ischemic vs bleeding event. There was no statistically significant difference in the aHR of an ischemic vs bleeding event in 1997-2000, 2001-2011, and 2012-2017.Conclusions and relevanceIn this nationwide cohort study of patients with a recent MI, postdischarge ischemic events were more common and associated with higher mortality risk compared with bleeding events.
