ABSTRACT
Direct stenting (DS) without pre-dilatation of the culprit lesion might improve myocardial perfusion and prognosis in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI); however, some studies report conflicting results. We investigated whether DS provides incremental myocardial benefits over conventional stenting (CS) in STEMI patients based on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) measures. Reperfused patients who underwent CMR examinations within 1 week of STEMI onset were selected from a multicenter CMR registry of STEMI (NCT 03768453). Patients were stratified into either a DS or CS group. Each group comprised 137 patients after 11 propensity score matching. Major adverse events (MACEs), including death, myocardial re-infarction, re-admission for heart failure, and stroke were noted during a median period of 44 months (interquartile range 32-58 months). DS was associated with larger (p = 0.007) and shorter (p = 0.005) stent sizes than CS. DS and CS achieved comparable angiographic TIMI-3 flow grades (p = 0.86) and myocardial blush grades (p = 0.70). There were no group differences regarding the incidence of CMR manifestations of microvascular dysfunction, including microvascular obstruction (MVO) (p = 0.89) and intramyocardial hemorrhage (p = 0.47), the extent of MVO (p = 0.21), infarction size (p = 0.83), or left ventricular ejection fraction (p = 0.57). Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed similar risks of MACEs (log rank p = 0.909), which occurred in 23.4% of DS and 26.3% of CS patients (p = 0.576). DS did not show any incremental benefits over CS on myocardial impairments as evaluated using CMR.Clinical Trial Registration Clinicaltrials.gov, NCT 03768453.
