Association of Total Ischemia Time with No-Reflow Phenomenon in Patients Presenting with ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction, Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
2023
Overview
ABSTRACT Objective: To find out the association of total ischemic time with no-reflow phenomenon, in terms of Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow grade, in patients presenting with ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction and undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention(PPCI). Study Design: Analytical Cross-Sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Armed Forces Institute of Cardiology/National Institute of Heart Diseases Rawalpindi Pakistan, from Nov, 2022 to Jan, 2023. Methodology: This analytical cross-sectional study was conducted on n=184 patients, recruited through consecutive sampling technique to collect data prospectively. Patients were divided into no-reflow and normal flow group. Patients' total ischemictime was documented and pre and post-procedural TIMI flow was noted. SPSS version-24:00 was used to enter and analyze data. Chi-square, Fisher exact test and t-test were applied and p-value≤0.05 was taken as statistically significant. Results: Out of 184 study participants, 17(9.2%) were females as compared to 167(90.8%) males. The mean age was 60.23±10.28 years. No-reflow phenomenon was observed in 20(10.9%) patients. The mean age was higher in the no-reflow group than that of the normal flow group (62.65±11.61 vs 59.94±10.12 years). Total ischemic time, pre and post-procedural TIMI flow were found to be significantly associated with no-reflow phenomenon (p<0.05). Conclusion: There exists a strong association between total ischemic time and the occurrence of no-reflow phenomenon. Patients with delayed reperfusion present with greater frequency of no-reflow and low TIMI grade and vice versa.
