Abstract
Background: Physical and emotional stress are recognized triggers of acute coronary syndromes, including ST segment elevation-myocardial infarction (STEMI). We have previously shown that identifiable triggers precede symptoms in over one-third of STEMI patients and inversely correlate with the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD). This study aims to investigate the association between trigger type (physical vs. emotional) and long-term mortality in STEMI patients treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods: This retrospective, single-center observational study included all patients admitted with an STEMI diagnosis from January 2008 to December 2013. Physical and emotional triggers were identified retrospectively from patient records. Mortality data were obtained from the Israeli Ministry of Health.
Results: Of 1345 consecutive STEMI patients treated with primary PCI, mortality data were available for 1267 patients (median age: 61 years). A trigger preceding symptoms onset was identified in 36.5% of patients, with 85% experiencing physical stress and 15% emotional stress. Triggered STEMI patients tended to be younger with fewer comorbidities and lower incidence of multiple vessel CAD compared with nontriggered patients. Notably, emotionally triggered STEMI patients exhibited improved long-term survival compared with those without emotional triggers or with physical triggers. predictor of enhanced long-term survival post-PCI compared with physical triggering. Emotional triggering was identified as an independent.
Conclusion: Patients with emotionally triggered STEMI showed less extensive CAD and improved long-term survival following PCI compared with those with physically triggered STEMI. These findings highlight the importance of considering both the presence and type of trigger in the management of STEMI patients and their long-term prognosis.
期刊介绍:
Coronary Artery Disease welcomes reports of original research with a clinical emphasis, including observational studies, clinical trials, translational research, novel imaging, pharmacology and interventional approaches as well as advances in laboratory research that contribute to the understanding of coronary artery disease. Each issue of Coronary Artery Disease is divided into four areas of focus: Original Research articles, Review in Depth articles by leading experts in the field, Editorials and Images in Coronary Artery Disease. The Editorials will comment on selected original research published in each issue of Coronary Artery Disease, as well as highlight controversies in coronary artery disease understanding and management.
Submitted artcles undergo a preliminary review by the editor. Some articles may be returned to authors without further consideration. Those being considered for publication will undergo further assessment and peer-review by the editors and those invited to do so from a reviewer pool.
