ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the effect of statin pretreatment on prognosis of octogenarian patients with coronary heart disease with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).METHODS:
A total of 90 patients aged at 85 years old and over with coronary heart disease (CAD) undergoing stenting were enrolled. The duration of statin, hospitalization and one-year clinical follow-up outcome including all-cause mortality, major adverse cardiac event (MACE), stroke and other major hemorrhages were collected and analyzed.RESULTS:
Among these patients, 33 (36.7%) received a statin pre-treatment for at least 2 days and 57 (63.3%) did not. Patients on a statin pre-treatment were more likely to have hypertension, hyperlipidemia and a history of myocardial infraction and PCI. The procedure characteristics were similar between two groups. Despite the higher risk profile, the patients on a statin pre-treatment had a lower hospitalization MACE rate (3.0% vs 10.5%, P = 0.05). However, at one year, the patients on a statin pre-treatment had a similar MACE rate (6.1% vs 3.8%, P = 0.07) as the other group.CONCLUSION:
The statin pretreatment in octogenarian CAD patients with PCI may be associated with a reduced hospitalization MACE rate.
