ABSTRACT
Worldwide primary angioplasty is a recommended strategy of reperfusion in patient with acute myocardial infarction as because it ensures reperfusion of the infarct-related vessels more than 90% whereas, with thrombolytics it is only 60-70%. This retrospective observational study includes all patients treated with primary angioplasty at United Hospital from Between March 2007 to January 2011. Total 114 consecutive patients with acute myocardial infarction were treated with primary angioplasty included. Those presented beyond 12 hours of onset of chest pain, in cardiogenic shock, resuscitate and intubated before the procedure were excluded from the study. Majority (89%) of the patient were male, age was minimum 30 years and maximum 90 years, 41.5% were diabetics, 58.4% were hypertensive, 43.5% were dyslipidaemic, 17% were smoker, 29.3% with positive family history. Fifty seven percent patients presented with anterior MI , 42 % with inferior MI and 1% with lateral MI. Left anterior descending (LAD) is the most common vessel involved (57%), followed by Right coronary artery (RCA) 31%, Left circumflex artery (LCX) 8 %, Ramus 1.3% and Graft vessel 2.7%. Our door to balloon time was minimum 23 min, maximum 184 min. We used drug eluting stents for most of the patients, GP IIb- IIIa receptor blockers used in 50% cases and thrombus suction device were used when indicated. We faced complications like arrhythmias in 24%, hypotension in18%, no flow or slow flow in 45%, cardiac arrest in 3% and coronary perforation in 1%. Our overall survival was 97.9%. Primary angioplasty is an emerging area in context of our country. Many of the new centers start this novel strategy which helps to save many lives Primary angioplasty is feasible and safe method of reperfusion in patient with acute myocardial infarction in our center. With the help of our initial experience we can perform PAMI with confidence to those who can afford and who need most.
