Abstract
BACKGROUND In the acute management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors (GPIs) bolus not followed by intravenous infusion is potentially advantageous given their fast onset and offset of action, but clinical evidence in a contemporary setting is limited. METHODS We collected data from consecutive STEMI patients admitted to the cardiac catheterization laboratory of the IRCCS A. Gemelli University Polyclinic Foundation from October 2017 to September 2019. RESULTS Out of 423 consecutive STEMI patients, 297 met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and were included in the study. Of them, 107/297 (36%) received an intracoronary GPI bolus-only during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) not followed by intravenous infusion and 190/297 (64%) received standard antithrombotic therapy. Of the 107 GPI-treated, 22/107 (21%) had P2Y<inf>12</inf> inhibitor pretreatment (adjunctive strategy) and 85/107 (79%) did not (bridging strategy). During hospital staying, there was no difference in the primary safety endpoint of TIMI major+minor bleeding (P=0.283), TIMI major (P=0.267) or TIMI minor (P=0.685) bleeding between groups. No stroke event occurred in the GPI group. Despite patients receiving GPI having a significantly higher intraprocedural ischemic burden, no significant differences were found in the efficacy outcomes between groups. Consistent findings were observed for patients receiving GPIs bolus before (bridging strategy) or after (adjunctive strategy) P2Y<inf>12</inf> inhibitors, compared to those receiving standard therapy. Multivariate logistic regression analyses did not find any independent predictors significantly associated to the primary and secondary composite endpoints. CONCLUSIONS In a contemporary real-world population of STEMI patients undergoing PPCI, the use of intracoronary GPIs bolus-only in selected patients at high ischemic risk is safe and could represent a useful antithrombotic strategy both in those pretreated and in those naïve to P2Y<inf>12</inf> inhibitors.
