RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Cerebrovascular accident (CVA) and transient ischemic attack (TIA) related to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are relatively rare complications, but they are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Given the evolution of both CVA risk and PCI techniques over time, this study was conducted to evaluate trends in CVA and TIA associated with PCI and to identify variables associated with neurologic events. METHODS: Consecutive patients undergoing PCI at the Washington Hospital Center between January 2002 and June 2015 were included. Prespecified data were prospectively collected, including baseline and procedural characteristics, in-hospital outcomes, and 1-year mortality. The subjects who had a CVA or TIA during or immediately after PCI were compared with those without procedure-associated CVA or TIA. RESULTS: Overall, 25,626 patients were included in the study. The mean age was 65.0 ± 12.4 years, 16,949 (65.2%) were male, and 7,436 (28.6%) were African American. From 2002 to 2015, 110 neurologic events post-PCI were diagnosed (0.43%); this included 86 CVAs (0.34%) and 24 TIAs (0.09%). The annual rate of postprocedural neurologic events was 0.42% ± 0.12%. There were significant changes in baseline risk factors over time, with increasing age, incidence of insulin-dependent diabetes, and chronic kidney disease. Patients with neurologic events were more often African American (43.6% vs 28.6%, P < .001) with prior history of CVA (24.5% vs 7.8%, P < .001), chronic renal insufficiency (26.6% vs 15.2%, P < .001), and insulin-dependent diabetes (19.1% vs 12.4%, P = .03). Acute myocardial infarction (56% vs 30.4%, P < .001) and cardiogenic shock (20.2% vs 3%, P < .001) were also more common among patients with neurologic events post-PCI. After multivariable adjustment, use of an intraaortic balloon pump was strongly associated with neurologic events (odds ratio [OR] 4.9, 95% CI 2.7-8.8, P < .001), as was prior CVA (OR 2.4, 95% CI 1.4-4.4, P = .002) and African American race (OR 2.4, 95% CI 1.5-3.9, P < .001); there was a borderline association with the use of a thrombus extraction device (OR 1.7, 95% CI 0.9-3.2, P = .09). In-hospital mortality (20.0% vs 1.5%, P < .001) and 1-year mortality (45.0% vs 7.3%, P < .001) were also much higher in patients with neurologic events. CONCLUSION: Neurologic events post-PCI are associated with markedly worse in-hospital outcomes. The incidence of CVA and TIA post-PCI, however, remained stable over the last 12 years despite an increase in risk factors for CVA.

BACKGROUND: Conflicting results have been reported regarding impact of body mass index (BMI) on outcome of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) patients. This study evaluates the impact of BMI on 1 year mortality in patients undergoing TAVR via the transfemoral (TF) access. METHODS: Aortic stenosis (AS) patients undergoing TAVR via a TF access between May 2007 and December 2014 were categorized to 4 groups by BMI: low (<20), normal (20-24.9), overweight (25-30), and obese (>30). Baseline parameters were compared, and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression models were generated to assess outcome differences. RESULTS: Among 491 severe AS TAVR patients, 43 had low BMI, 148 had normal BMI, 162 were overweight, and 138 were obese. Obese patients were younger with lower Society of Thoracic Surgeons scores and higher rates of preserved ejection fraction and diabetes. There was a higher rate of women in the BMI extremes. Aortic valve area was higher among obese patients; however, the indexed area was inversely correlated with BMI. Vascular complications and transfusions were more common in the low-BMI group, while acute kidney injury was more common in obese patients. All-cause mortality at 1 year was higher in the low-BMI group (log-rank p = 0.003) with no significant difference among normal and above-normal BMI patients. In a multivariate model, BMI <20 kg/m(2) was an independent predictor of mortality (HR = 2.45, p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: BMI <20 kg/m(2) should be considered a frailty marker during the screening process of severe AS TAVR patients as it is associated with higher mortality, while obesity confers similar mortality risk as normal weight. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Our objective was to determine in children in the intensive care unit (ICU) the incidence of hyperchloremia (>110 mmol/L) and hypochloremia (<98 mmol/L), the association of diagnoses with chloride abnormalities, and the associations of mortality and acute kidney injury (AKI) with chloride abnormalities. We analyzed the initial, maximum, and minimum chloride measurements of 14,684 children in the ICU with ≥1 chloride measurement in the Health Facts database between 2009 and 2016. For hyperchloremia and hypochloremia compared with normochloremia, mortality rates increased three to fivefold and AKI rates increased 1.5 to threefold. The highest mortality rate (7.7%; n = 95/1,234) occurred with hyperchloremia in the minimum chloride measurement group and the highest AKI rate (7.7%; n = 72/930) occurred with hypochloremia in the initial chloride measurement group. The most common diagnostic categories associated with chloride abnormalities were injury and poisoning; respiratory; central nervous system; infectious and parasitic diseases; and endocrine, nutritional, metabolic, and immunity disorders. Controlled for race, gender, age, and diagnostic categories, mortality odds ratios, and AKI odds ratios were significantly higher for hyperchloremia and hypochloremia compared with normochloremia. In conclusion, hyperchloremia and hypochloremia are independently associated with mortality and AKI in children in the ICU.
