ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
This study aimed to assess the mortality and prognosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) initially admitted to Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care in comparison with patients initially admitted to Cardiac Centre (CC).BACKGROUND:
Global acute coronary syndrome (ACS) registries often omit patients with OHCA initially admitted to anaesthesiology and intensive care units. This exclusion may lead to underestimated mortality rates in patients following acute MI worldwide.METHODS:
A retrospective analysis was conducted in patients admitted in 2014 to the (Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care) at a single center, J.A. Reiman Teaching Hospital in Presov, Slovakia. Survival rates were evaluated in-hospital, at 30 days, and annually over a five-year period. Patients with STEMI and NSTEMI were analyzed separately, particularly during the early in-hospital phase.RESULTS:
In the OHCA group, 52% of STEMI patients experienced in-hospital mortality, whereas the CC group reported only 3% mortality. The total hospital mortality for STEMI patients was 6.69%. Among NSTEMI patients in the OHCA group, in-hospital mortality reached 50%, compared to 4.33% in the CC group. The total center mortality for all NSTEMI patients was 6.09%.CONCLUSION:
Although the short-term prognosis for MI patients with OHCA is unfavorable, with a 30-day mortality rate of 54.9%, for those who survive the initial 30 days following cardiac arrest and are successfully discharged from the hospital, the long-term prognosis aligns with MI patients without OHCA. In light of these findings, the inclusion of all patients with MI (from both OHCA and CC groups) in global ACS registries could significantly raise in-hospital and 30-day mortality rates (Tab. 3, Fig. 4, Ref. 21).Key words
