RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Increasing vasopressor dose is associated with increasing mortality in patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock (AMICS). It is unknown whether the use of vasopressors is independently harmful or if their use is secondary to decreasing intrinsic cardiac power output (CPO). Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices enhance CPO. We sought to evaluate the independent impact of increasing vasopressor dose on survival in the National Cardiogenic Shock Initiative (NCSI). METHODS: The NCSI is a single arm prospective trial evaluating outcomes associated with the use of MCS using Impella in patients with AMICS. Early initiation of MCS placement before percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and rapid de-escalation of vasopressors guided by systematic use of invasive hemodynamic measures led to 70% in-hospital survival for the first 300 patients enrolled from July 2016 to December 2019 in 57 U.S. sites. RESULTS: Hemodynamic measures were obtained immediately after MCS and PCI. Survival curves were constructed based on CPO and use of vasopressors. For patients with CPO ≤0.6 W, survival was 77.3%, 45.0%, and 35.3% when 0, 1, or ≥ 2 vasopressors were used (p = 0.02). Similarly, for patients with CPO >0.6 W survival was 81.7%, 72.6%, and 56.8%, respectively (p = 0.01). Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that increasing vasopressor requirements were independently associated with increasing mortality (p = 0.02). CONCLUSION: Increasing vasopressor requirement is associated with increased mortality in AMICS independent of underlying CPO. Methods to decrease the need for vasopressors may enhance survival in AMICS.

BACKGROUND: No previous reports have described the comprehensive care pathways involved in chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention (CTO PCI). METHODS: In a study of 1,000 consecutive patients undergoing CTO PCI using hybrid approach, a systematic algorithm of selecting CTO PCI strategies, the procedural characteristics, complication rates, and patient reported health status outcomes through 12 months were assessed. RESULTS: Technical success of the index CTO PCI was 86%, with 89% of patients having at least one successful CTO PCI within 12 months. A total of 13.8% underwent CTO PCI of another vessel or reattempt of index CTO PCI within 1 year. At 1 year, the unadjusted major adverse cardiac and cerebral event (MACCE) rate was lower in patients with successful index CTO PCI compared to patients with unsuccessful index CTO PCI (9.4% vs. 14.6%, p = .04). The adjusted hazard ratios of myocardial infarction and death at 12 months were numerically lower in patients with successful index CTO PCI, compared to patients with unsuccessful index CTO PCI. Patients with successful index CTO PCI reported significantly greater improvement in health status throughout 12-months compared to patients with unsuccessful index CTO PCI. CONCLUSION: CTO-PCI in the real-world often require treatment of second CTO, non-CTO PCI or repeat procedures to treat initially unsuccessful lesions. Successful CTO PCI is associated with numerically lower MACCE at 1 year and persistent symptomatic improvement compared to unsuccessful CTO PCI. Understanding the relationship between the care pathways following CTO PCI and health status benefit requires further study.

OBJECTIVES: We sought to assess in-hospital and long-term outcomes of retrograde compared with antegrade-only percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion (CTO PCI). BACKGROUND: Procedural and clinical outcomes following retrograde compared with antegrade-only CTO PCI remain unknown. METHODS: Using the core-lab adjudicated OPEN-CTO registry, we compared the outcomes of retrograde to antegrade-only CTO PCI. Primary endpoints included were in-hospital major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) (all-cause death, stroke, myocardial infarction [MI], emergency cardiac surgery, or clinically significant perforation) and MACCE at 1-year (all-cause death, MI, stroke, target lesion revascularization, or target vessel reocclusion). RESULTS: Among 885 single CTO procedures from the OPEN-CTO registry, 454 were retrograde and 431 were antegrade-only. Lesion complexity was higher (J-CTO score: 2.7 vs. 1.9; p < .001) and technical success lower (82.4 vs. 94.2%; p < .001) in retrograde compared with antegrade-only procedures. All-cause death was higher in the retrograde group in-hospital (2 vs. 0%; p = .003), but not at 1-year (4.9 vs. 3.3%; p = .29). Compared with antegrade-only procedures, in-hospital MACCE rates (composite of all-cause death, stroke, MI, emergency cardiac surgery, and clinically significant perforation) were higher in the retrograde group (10.8 vs. 3.3%; p < .001) and at 1-year (19.5 vs. 13.9%; p = .03). In sensitivity analyses landmarked at discharge, there was no difference in MACCE rates at 1 year following retrograde versus antegrade-only CTO PCI. Improvements in Seattle Angina Questionnaire Quality of Life scores at 1-year were similar between the retrograde and antegrade-only groups (29.9 vs 30.4; p = .58). CONCLUSIONS: In the OPEN-CTO registry, retrograde CTO procedures were associated with higher rates of in-hospital MACCE compared with antegrade-only; however, post-discharge outcomes, including quality of life improvements, were similar between technical modalities.

OBJECTIVES: We sought to determine the impact of subintimal plaque modification (SPM) on early health status following unsuccessful chronic total occlusion (CTO) PCI. BACKGROUND: Intentionally dilating the subintimal space during unsuccessful CTO PCI to facilitate flow through dissection planes and improve success of repeat PCI attempts is a technique used by some hybrid operators, and may improve health status by restoring distal vessel flow despite unsuccessful CTO PCI. METHODS: We studied 138 patients who underwent unsuccessful CTO PCI in a 12-center CTO PCI registry. Safety was assessed by comparing in-hospital outcomes of patients undergoing unsuccessful CTO PCI with and without SPM. The association between SPM and health status was quantified using the Seattle Angina Questionnaire Summary Score (SAQ SS), and the association between SPM and SAQ SS was determined using multivariable regression. RESULTS: SPM was performed in 59 patients (42.8%). Complication rates were similar comparing those with and without SPM. At 1-month, patients treated with SPM had larger increases in SAQ SS compared to patients who were not (28.3 ± 21.7 vs. 16.8 ±20.2, P = 0.012), and SPM was associated with an adjusted mean 10.5 point (95% CI 1.4-19.7, P = 0.02) greater SAQ SS improvement through 30 days. CONCLUSION: SPM was performed in almost half of unsuccessful CTO PCIs and was not associated with increased procedural complications. SPM was independently associated with better patient-reported health status at 30 days. Further studies are needed to assess the necessity of subsequent PCI in patients with significant health status improvements after SPM.

BACKGROUND: Acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices increase systemic blood pressure and end organ perfusion while reducing cardiac filling pressures. METHODS AND RESULTS: The National Cardiogenic Shock Initiative (NCT03677180) is a single-arm, multicenter study. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of utilizing early MCS with Impella in patients presenting with AMI-CS. The primary end point was in-hospital mortality. A total of 406 patients were enrolled at 80 sites between 2016 and 2020. Average age was 64±12 years, 24% were female, 17% had a witnessed out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, 27% had in-hospital cardiac arrest, and 9% were under active cardiopulmonary resuscitation during MCS implantation. Patients presented with a mean systolic blood pressure of 77.2±19.2 mm Hg, 85% of patients were on vasopressors or inotropes, mean lactate was 4.8±3.9 mmol/L and cardiac power output was 0.67±0.29 watts. At 24 hours, mean systolic blood pressure improved to 103.9±17.8 mm Hg, lactate to 2.7±2.8 mmol/L, and cardiac power output to 1.0±1.3 watts. Procedural survival, survival to discharge, survival to 30 days, and survival to 1 year were 99%, 71%, 68%, and 53%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Early use of MCS in AMI-CS is feasible across varying health care settings and resulted in improvements to early hemodynamics and perfusion. Survival rates to hospital discharge were high. Given the encouraging results from our analysis, randomized clinical trials are warranted to assess the role of utilizing early MCS, using a standardized, multidisciplinary approach.

OBJECTIVES: This study sought to describe the angiographic characteristics, strategy associated with perforation, and the management of perforation during chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention (CTO PCI). BACKGROUND: The incidence of perforation is higher during CTO PCI compared with non-CTO PCI and is reportedly highest among retrograde procedures. METHODS: Among 1,000 consecutive patients who underwent CTO PCI in a 12-center registry, 89 (8.9%) had core lab-adjudicated angiographic perforations. Clinical perforation was defined as any perforation requiring treatment. Major adverse cardiac events (MAEs) were defined as in-hospital death, cardiac tamponade, and pericardial effusion. RESULTS: Among the 89 perforations, 43 (48.3%) were clinically significant, and 46 (51.7%) were simply observed. MAE occurred in 25 (28.0%), and in-hospital death occurred in 9 (10.1%). Compared with nonclinical perforations, clinical perforations were larger in size, more often at a collateral location, had a high-risk shape, and less likely to cause staining or fast filling. Compared with perforations not associated with MAE, perforations associated with MAE were larger in size, more proximal or at collateral location, and had a high-risk shape. When the core lab attributed the perforation to the approach used when the perforation occurred, 61% of retrograde perforations by other classifications were actually antegrade. CONCLUSIONS: Larger size, proximal or collateral location, and high-risk shapes of a coronary perforation were associated with MAE. Six of 10 perforations occurred with antegrade approaches among patients who had both strategies attempted. These finding will help emerging CTO operators understand high-risk features of the perforation that require treatment and inform future comparisons of retrograde and antegrade complications.

BACKGROUND: Health status and quality of life improvement after chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) among patients with refractory angina has not been reported. We sought to determine the degree of quality of life improvement after CTO PCI in patients with refractory angina. METHODS AND RESULTS: Among 1000 consecutive patients who underwent CTO PCI in a 12-center registry, refractory angina was defined as any angina (baseline Seattle Angina Questionnaire [SAQ] Angina Frequency score of ≤90) despite treatment with ≥3 antianginal medications. Health status at baseline and 1-year follow-up was quantified using the SAQ. Refractory angina was present at baseline in 148 patients (14.8%). Technical success was achieved in 120 (81.1%) at the initial attempt and major adverse cardiac and cerebral events occurred in 10 (6.8%). There were no procedural deaths. Refractory angina patients were highly symptomatic at baseline with mean SAQ Angina Frequency of 51.1±23.8, SAQ quality of life of 35.3±21.2, and SAQ Summary Score of 47.2±17.9, improving by 32.0±27.8, 35.7±23.9, and 32.1±20.1 at 1 year. Through 1-year follow-up, patients with successful CTO PCI had significantly larger degree of improvement of SAQ Angina Frequency and SAQ Summary Score (35.0±26.8 versus 18.8±28.9, P<0.01; 34.2±19.4 versus 22.5±20.8, P<0.01) compared with unsuccessful CTO PCI. CONCLUSIONS: Refractory angina was present in 1 of 7 patients in the OPEN-CTO (Outcomes, Patient Health Status, and Efficiency in Chronic Total Occlusion Hybrid Procedures) registry. Patients with refractory angina experienced large, clinically significant health status improvements that persisted through 12 months, and patients with successful CTO PCI had larger health status improvement than those without.

BACKGROUND: Patients with chronic total occlusions of a coronary artery represent a complex, yet common, clinical conundrum among patients with ischemic heart disease. Chronic total occlusion angioplasty is increasingly being used as a treatment for these complex lesions. There is a compelling need to better quantify the safety, efficacy, benefits, and costs of the procedure. METHODS: To address these gaps in knowledge, we designed the Outcomes, Patient Health Status, and Efficiency IN Chronic Total Occlusion Hybrid Procedures (OPEN CTO) study, an investigator-initiated multicenter, single-arm registry including 12 centers with a planned enrollment of 1000 patients. To ensure the accuracy of our observations, we used a unique auditing process through the National Cardiovascular Disease Registries' Cath/PCI Registry, angiographic core lab analysis, clinical events adjudication, and a systematic collection of patient-reported outcomes and costs. RESULTS: Between 21 January 2014 and 22 July 2015, 1000 patients were enrolled in OPEN CTO. A total of 28 patients either refused (N=26) or were missed by the screening process (N=2). In the National Cardiovascular Disease Registry Cath/PCI registry audit, there were 1096 chronic total occlusion-percutaneous coronary intervention procedures that were performed by participating operators during the time they enrolled in OPEN CTO. Overall, 987 of those patients could be definitively matched to an OPEN CTO enrolled patient (enrolled group). The remaining 109 were considered to be not enrolled in OPEN CTO (not enrolled group). Compared with the enrolled group, the patients in the nonenrolled group were less frequently of White race and more frequently of Hispanic origin. Procedural outcomes including National Cardiovascular Disease Registry-defined technical success, procedural success, and major adverse coronary events rates were similar. CONCLUSION: OPEN CTO is the most comprehensive and rigorously collected dataset to date that will provide unique insights into the success, safety, benefits, and the costs of chronic total occlusion-percutaneous coronary intervention using a reproducible technical approach to patients with these complex lesions.

OBJECTIVES: This study sought to accurately describe the success rate, risks, and patient-reported benefits of contemporary chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). BACKGROUND: In light of the evolving techniques to successfully revascularize CTO lesions, there remains a compelling need to more accurately quantify the success rates, risks, and benefits of these complex procedures. METHODS: Using a uniquely comprehensive, core-lab adjudicated, single-arm, multicenter registry of 1,000 consecutive patients undergoing CTO PCI by the hybrid approach, we evaluated the technical success rates, complication rates, and raw and adjusted health status benefits at 1 month among successfully as compared to unsuccessfully treated patients. RESULTS: Technical success was high (86%). In-hospital and 1-month mortality was 0.9% and 1.3%, respectively, and perforations requiring treatment occurred in 48 patients (4.8%). Among those who survived and completed the 1-month interview (n = 947), mean ± SEM Seattle Angina Questionnaire quality of life scores improved from 49.4 ± 0.9 to 75.0 ± 0.7 (p < 0.01), mean Rose Dyspnea Scale scores improved (decreased) from 2.0 ± 0.1 to 1.1 ± 0.1 (p < 0.01), and physician health questionnaire (for depression) scores improved (decreased) from 6.2 ± 0.2 to 3.5 ± 0.1 (p < 0.01) at 1 month. After adjusting for baseline differences the mean group difference in Seattle Angina Questionnaire quality of life between successful and unsuccessful CTO PCI was 10.8 (95% confidence interval: 6.3 to 15.3; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Clarifying the success rates, risks, and benefits of CTO PCI will help to more accurately contextualize the informed consent process for these procedures so that patients with appropriate indications for CTO PCI can more effectively share in the decision to pursue this or other therapeutic options.

Healthcare reform is upon the United States (US) healthcare system. Prioritisation of preventative efforts will guide necessary transitions within the US healthcare system. While annual deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) costs have recently been defined at the US national level, annual pulmonary embolism (PE) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) costs have not yet been defined. A decision tree and cost model were developed to estimate US health care costs for total PE, total hospital-acquired PE, and total hospital-acquired "preventable" PE. The previously published DVT cost model was modified, updated and combined with the PE cost model to elucidate the same three categories of costs for VTE. Direct and indirect costs were also delineated. For VTE in the base model, annual cost ranges in 2011 US dollars for total, hospital- acquired, and hospital-acquired "preventable" costs and were $13.5-$27.2, $9.0-$18.2, and $4.5-$14.2 billion, respectively. The first sensitivity analysis, with higher incidence rates and costs, demonstrated annual US total, hospital-acquired, and hospital-acquired "preventable" VTE costs ranging from $32.1-$69.3, $23.7-$51.5, and $11.9-$39.3 billion, respectively. The second sensitivity analysis with long-term attack rates (LTAR) for recurrent events and post-thrombotic syndrome and chronic pulmonary thromboembolic hypertension demonstrated annual US total, hospital-acquired, and hospital-acquired "preventable" VTE costs ranging from $15.4-$34.4, $10.3-$25.4, and $5.1-$19.1 billion, respectively. PE costs comprised a majority of the VTE costs. Prioritisation of effective VTE preventative strategies will reduce significant costs, morbidity and mortality within the US healthcare system. The cost models may be utilised to estimate other countries' costs or VTE-specific disease states.
