ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Revascularization procedures are considered the cornerstone of therapy in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) and multiple procedures are often required to attain limb salvage. The aim of the present study is to determine the prevalence of peri-procedural complications after endovascular procedure, and to determine the clinical and biological characteristics of patients associated to the risk of peri-procedural complications.METHODS:
From November 2013 to May 2021, 324 consecutive patients were retrospectively included, of whom 99 underwent more than one revascularization procedure for contralateral CLI or clinical recurrence of CLI. A total of 532 revascularizations were performed. Clinical and biological parameters were recorded at baseline before endovascular revascularization. The occurrence of a peri-procedural complication (local complications, fatal and non-fatal major bleeding or cardiovascular events) was recorded up to 30days after revascularization. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to study the parameters associated with per-procedural complications. A P<0.05 was considered as statistically significant.RESULTS:
A total of 324 consecutive patients were included, 177 men and 147 women with CLI, with a mean age of 77.6±11.9years. Most of these patients had cardiovascular comorbidities (41% with a history of coronary heart disease, 78% treated hypertensive patients, 49% diabetic patients). Peri-procedural mortality occurred in 13 patients (4%) and 9 patients (2.8%) experienced major amputation at one-month following revascularization. Among the 532 revascularization procedures, 99 major bleeding events (22.8% of the cohort population) and 31 cardiovascular events (8.6% of the cohort population), were recorded in the peri-procedural period. Cardiovascular events were associated with peri-procedural mortality. Complications at the puncture site occurred during 38 of the 532 procedures (10.2% of the cohort population). Compared with patients undergoing a single revascularization procedure, patients with multiple procedures presented a higher risk of major bleeding events (48.5% vs. 11.6%, P<0.0001) and access site complications (20.2% vs. 5.78%, P<0.0001). In multivariate analysis, pulse pressure <60mmHg and hemoglobin level <10g/dl were correlated with the occurrence of major bleeding events; left ventricular ejection fraction<60% and the absence of statin treatment were correlated with the occurrence of cardiovascular complications; a high chronological rank of revascularization was correlated with the occurrence of local complication. Finally, age and gender were not associated with the occurrence of peri-procedural complication.CONCLUSION:
The present results highlight that multiple revascularization procedures for limb salvage are required in almost one third of the population with critical limb ischemia and were associated with the risk of major bleeding events and access site complications. The most frequent complications of peripheral vascular interventions were major bleeding events. Adverse cardiovascular events were related with peri-procedural mortality. Anemia, blood pressure, left ventricular ejection fraction and statin treatment are important parameters to consider for peri-procedural outcomes, independently of age, gender and the chronological rank of revascularization procedure.Palabras clave
