Key result
The no-reflow phenomenon after PCI for acute anterior myocardial infarction was associated with a higher 6-month incidence of major adverse cardiac events compared to reflow (53.85% vs 8.11%, P<0.001).
Why the study?
Does the no-reflow phenomenon worsen ventricular systolic synchrony and clinical outcomes in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction after PCI?
Population
100 patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
Comparison
No-reflow phenomenon vs Reflow phenomenon
Design
Cohort
Follow-up
6 months

No-reflow after anterior MI PCI was associated with higher 6-month MACE; leaves open causal role and need for prospective validation.

Does the no-reflow phenomenon worsen ventricular systolic synchrony and clinical outcomes in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction after PCI?
Absolute Event Rate: 53.85% vs 8.11%
p-value: p=<0.001
The no-reflow phenomenon after PCI for acute anterior myocardial infarction is associated with reduced left ventricular systolic synchrony and a significantly higher rate of major adverse cardiac events at 6 months.
Li et al. (2016) conducted a cohort in Acute anterior myocardial infarction (n=100). No-reflow phenomenon vs. Reflow was evaluated on Major adverse cardiac events (p=<0.001). The no-reflow phenomenon after PCI for acute anterior myocardial infarction was associated with a higher 6-month incidence of major adverse cardiac events compared to reflow (53.85% vs 8.11%, P<0.001).
