Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of administering a crushed prasugrel loading dose is uncertain in patients presenting with a large myocardial infarction and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). AIMS The aim of this study was to investigate if patients with a large myocardial infarction may benefit from prehospital administration of a crushed prasugrel loading dose. METHODS Patients from the CompareCrush trial with an available ambulance electrocardiography (ECG) were included in the study. An independent core laboratory confirmed a prehospital large myocardial area. We compared pre- and postprocedural angiographic markers, including Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) 3 flow in the infarct-related artery, high thrombus burden, and myocardial blush grade 3, in STEMI patients with and without a prehospital large myocardial area. RESULTS Ambulance ECG was available for 532 patients, of whom 331 patients were identified with a prehospital large myocardial area at risk. Crushed prasugrel significantly improved postprocedural TIMI 3 flow rates in STEMI patients with a prehospital large myocardial area at risk (92% vs 79%, odds ratio [OR] 3.00, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.50-6.00) but not in STEMI patients without a prehospital large myocardial area at risk (91% vs 95%, OR 0.47, 95% CI: 0.14-1.57; pinteraction=0.009). CONCLUSIONS Administration of crushed prasugrel may improve postprocedural TIMI 3 flow in STEMI patients with signs of a large myocardial area at risk on the ambulance ECG. The practice of crushing tablets of prasugrel loading dose might, therefore, represent a safe, fast and cost-effective strategy to improve myocardial reperfusion in this high-risk STEMI subgroup undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Direct stenting (DS) compared with conventional stenting (CS) after balloon predilatation may reduce distal embolization during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), thereby improving tissue reperfusion. In contrast, DS may increase the risk of stent underexpansion and target lesion failure. METHODS In this sub-study of the randomized COMPARE CRUSH trial (NCT03296540), we reviewed the efficacy of DS versus CS in a cohort of contemporary, pretreated ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients undergoing primary PCI. We compared DS versus CS, assessing (1) stent diameter in the culprit lesion, (2) thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow in the infarct-related artery post-PCI and complete ST-segment resolution (STR) one-hour post-PCI, and (3) target lesion failure at one year. For proportional variables, propensity score weighting was applied to account for potential treatment selection bias. RESULTS This prespecified sub-study included 446 patients, of whom 189 (42%) were treated with DS. Stent diameters were comparable between groups (3.2 ± 0.5 vs. 3.2 ± 0.5 mm, p = 0.17). Post-PCI TIMI 3 flow and complete STR post-PCI rates were similar between groups (DS 93% vs. CS 90%, adjusted OR 1.16 [95% CI, 0.56-2.39], p = 0.69, and DS 72% vs. CS 58%, adjusted OR 1.29 [95% CI 0.77-2.16], p = 0.34, respectively). Moreover, target lesion failure rates at one year were comparable (DS 2% vs. 1%, adjusted OR 2.93 [95% CI 0.52-16.49], p = 0.22). CONCLUSION In this contemporary pretreated STEMI cohort, we found no difference in early myocardial reperfusion outcomes between DS and CS. Moreover, DS seemed comparable to CS in terms of stent diameter and one-year vessel patency.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mechanisms underlying the increased risk of bleeding that female patients with ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) exhibit, remains unclear. The present report assessed sex-related differences in response to pre-hospital dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) initiation in patients with STEMI. METHODS The COMPARE CRUSH trial randomized patients presenting with STEMI to receive a pre-hospital loading dose of crushed or integral prasugrel tablets in the ambulance. In this substudy, we compared platelet reactivity levels and the occurrence of high platelet reactivity (HPR; defined as platelet reactivity ≥208) between sexes at 4 prespecified time points after DAPT initiation, and evaluated post-PCI bleeding between groups. RESULTS Out of 633 STEMI patients, 147 (23%) were female. Females compared with males presented with significantly higher levels of platelet reactivity and higher HPR rates at baseline (232 [IQR, 209-256] vs 195 [IQR, 171-220], P < .01, and 76% vs 41%, OR 4.58 [95%CI, 2.52-8.32], P < .01, respectively). Moreover, female sex was identified as the sole independent predictor of HPR at baseline (OR 5.67 [95%CI, 2.56-12.53], P < .01). Following DAPT initiation, levels of platelet reactivity and the incidence of HPR were similar between sexes. Post-PCI bleeding occurred more frequently in females compared with males (10% vs 2%, OR 6.02 [95%CI, 2.61-11.87], P < .01). Female sex was an independent predictor of post-PCI bleeding (OR 3.25 [95%CI, 1.09-9.72], P = .04). CONCLUSIONS In this contemporary STEMI cohort, female STEMI patients remain at risk of bleeding complications after primary PCI. However, this is not explained by sex-specific differences in the pharmacodynamic response to pre-hospital DAPT initiation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Direct stenting has been proposed to reduce vessel wall damage and distal embolization in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, studies comparing direct stenting with stenting after predilatation have shown mixed results so far. Patients presenting with high thrombus burden in the culprit lesion represent a subgroup of STEMI patients that may particularly benefit from direct stenting, as high thrombus burden is associated with suboptimal reperfusion and poor clinical outcomes.
Purpose
We sought to determine the efficacy of direct stenting compared with stenting after predilatation in STEMI patients presenting with high thrombus burden.
Methods
The randomized COMPARE CRUSH trial assessed the efficacy of pre-hospital administration of crushed versus integral prasugrel tablets in patients presenting with STEMI planned for primary PCI. We assessed Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow, corrected TIMI frame count (cTFC) and myocardial blush grade at the end of primary PCI, as well as the occurrence of complete (≥70%) ST-segment resolution 1 hour post-PCI in STEMI patients presenting with high thrombus burden in the culprit lesion (defined as a TIMI thrombus grade ≥3).
Results
A total of 417 STEMI patients were included in the current analysis of which 336 (81%) presented with high thrombus burden on initial angiography with 144 patients (43%) being treated with direct stenting. Patients undergoing direct stenting exhibited significantly lower cTFC post-PCI compared with stenting after predilatation (16 [12–24] vs. 20 [13–29], p=0.02). Moreover, direct stenting patients more frequently exhibited complete ST-segment resolution 1 hour post-PCI compared with stenting after predilatation (72% vs. 59%, OR 1.82 [95% CI, 1.11–2.99], p=0.02). In contrast, we found no differences in the occurrence of TIMI 3 flow (DS 92% vs. 92%, OR 1.02 [0.47–2.22], p=0.97) or myocardial blush grade 3 (DS 63% vs. 54%, OR 1.45 [95% CI, 0.83–2.52], p=0.19) post-PCI between groups.
Conclusion
STEMI patients presenting with high thrombus burden treated with direct stenting showed improved markers of early myocardial reperfusion compared with patients treated with stenting after predilatation, indicating that a direct stenting strategy may benefit the subgroup of STEMI patients that present with high thrombus burden. Randomized trials are warranted to further investigate whether the potential benefits of direct stenting outweigh potential hazards over the long-term.

Abstract
The present research letter reports the 1-year clinical outcomes of the randomized COMPARE CRUSH trial, which allocated STEMI patients at first medical contact in the ambulance to receive either crushed or integral tablets of prasugrel loading dose. This trial aimed to investigate whether early enhanced antiplatelet effect constituted by the crushed potent oral P2Y12 inhibitor prasugrel could lead to improved early myocardial reperfusion and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Background The use of large‐bore (LB) arterial access and guiding catheters has been advocated for complex percutaneous coronary intervention. However, the impact of LB transradial access (TRA) and transfemoral access (TFA) on extremity dysfunction is currently unknown. Methods and Results The predefined substudy of the COLOR (Complex Large‐Bore Radial PCI) trial aimed to assess upper and lower‐extremity dysfunction after LB radial and femoral access. Upper‐extremity function was assessed in LB TRA‐treated patients by the Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand questionnaire and lower‐extremity function in LB TFA‐treated patients by the Lower Extremity Functional Scale questionnaire. Extremity pain and effect of access site complications and risk factors on extremity dysfunction was also analyzed. There were 343 patients who completed analyzable questionnaires. Overall, upper and lower‐extremity function did not decrease over time when LB TRA and TFA were used for complex percutaneous coronary intervention, as represented by the median Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand score (6.8 at baseline and 2.1 at follow‐up, higher is worse) and Lower Extremity Functional Scale score (56 at baseline and 58 at follow‐up, lower is worse). Clinically relevant extremity dysfunction occurred in 6% after TRA and 9% after TFA. A trend for more pronounced upper‐limb dysfunction was present in female patients after LB TRA (P=0.05). Lower‐extremity pain at discharge was significantly higher in patients with femoral access site complications (P=0.02). Conclusions Following LB TRA and TFA, self‐reported upper and lower‐limb function did not decrease over time in the majority of patients. Clinically relevant limb dysfunction occurs in a small minority of patients regardless of radial or femoral access. Registration URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov; Unique identifier: NCT03846752.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Females presenting with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are characterized by an increased risk of bleeding after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) compared with males. The reason for increased bleeding rates is multifactorial, including age, comorbidities, vessel anatomy and possible differences in platelet biology. Data about platelet reactivity levels in females versus males presenting with STEMI is scarce.
Purpose
Investigation of gender-driven variances in platelet reactivity and bleeding outcomes in STEMI patients planned to undergo pPCI.
Methods
The COMPARE CRUSH trial was a randomized multicenter ambulance trial assessing the effect of prehospital administration of P2Y12 inhibitor loading dose with crushed versus integral prasugrel tablets in STEMI patients. We assessed the occurrence of high platelet reactivity (HPR), predictors of HPR at baseline and bleeding outcomes between females and males. Blood samples were analyzed at four prespecified time points using VerifyNow.
Results
The COMPARE CRUSH trial included 633 STEMI patients in the period between November 2017 and March 2020. Females more frequently exhibited HPR at baseline than males (76% vs. 41%, odds ratio (OR), 4.58 [95% CI, 2.52 to 8.32], p<0.01). Moreover, female sex was a strong, independent predictor for HPR at baseline (OR, 4.93 [95% CI, 2.30 to 10.57], p<0.01). HPR rates at other time points were not significantly different between females and males. The risk of bleeding within the first 48 hours was significantly increased in females (OR, 6.02 [95% CI, 2.58 to 14.08], p<0.01), but after adjustment for baseline characteristics this increased risk was no longer statistically significant (OR, 2.61 [95% CI, 0.73 to 9.32], p=0.14).
Conclusion
Female sex is an independent predictor for occurrence of HPR at baseline in STEMI patients. However, females exhibit a stronger platelet inhibition effect by oral P2Y12 inhibitors than males, which may contribute to an increased bleeding risk. A more tailored antiplatelet therapy approach should be considered for female STEMI patients to reduce bleeding risk.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study sought to compare the pharmacodynamic effects of pre-hospitally administered P2Y12 inhibitor prasugrel in crushed versus integral tablet formulation in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). BACKGROUND Early dual antiplatelet therapy is recommended in STEMI patients. Yet, onset of oral P2Y12 inhibitor effect is delayed and varies according to formulation administered. METHODS The COMPARE CRUSH (Comparison of Pre-hospital Crushed Versus Uncrushed Prasugrel Tablets in Patients With STEMI Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Interventions) trial randomized patients with suspected STEMI to crushed or integral prasugrel 60-mg loading dose in the ambulance. Pharmacodynamic measurements were performed at 4 time points: before antiplatelet treatment, at the beginning and end of pPCI, and 4 h after study treatment onset. The primary endpoint was high platelet reactivity at the end of pPCI. The secondary endpoint was impact of platelet reactivity status on markers of coronary reperfusion. RESULTS A total of 441 patients were included. In patients with crushed prasugrel, the occurrence of high platelet reactivity at the end of pPCI was reduced by almost one-half (crushed 34.7% vs. uncrushed 61.6%; odds ratio [OR] = 0.33; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.22 to 0.50; p < 0.01). Platelet reactivity <150 P2Y12 reactivity units at the beginning of coronary angiography correlated with improved Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction flow grade 3 in the infarct artery pre-pPCI (OR: 1.78; 95% CI: 1.08 to 2.94; p = 0.02) but not ST-segment resolution (OR: 0.80; 95% CI: 0.48 to 1.34; p = 0.40). CONCLUSIONS Oral administration of crushed compared with integral prasugrel significantly improves platelet inhibition during the acute phase in STEMI patients undergoing pPCI. However, a considerable number of patients still exhibit inadequate platelet inhibition at the end of pPCI, suggesting the need for alternative agents to bridge the gap in platelet inhibition.

Abstract
Background:
Early treatment with a potent oral platelet P2Y
12
inhibitor is recommended in patients presenting with ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction scheduled to undergo primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). The impact on coronary reperfusion of crushed P2Y
12
inhibitor tablets, which lead to more prompt and potent platelet inhibition, is unknown.
Methods:
We conducted a randomized controlled, multicenter trial in the Netherlands, enrolling patients with ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction scheduled to undergo pPCI. Patients were randomly allocated to receive in the ambulance, before transfer, a 60-mg loading dose of prasugrel either as crushed or integral tablets. The independent primary end points were thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) 3 flow in the infarct-related artery at initial coronary angiography, and complete (≥70%) ST-segment resolution 1 hour after pPCI. The safety end points were TIMI major and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium ≥3 bleedings. Secondary end points included platelet reactivity and ischemic outcomes.
Results:
A total of 727 patients were assigned to either crushed or integral tablets of prasugrel loading dose. The median time from study treatment to wire-crossing during pPCI was 57 (47–70) minutes. The primary end point TIMI 3 flow in the infarct-related artery before pPCI occurred in 31.0% in the crushed group versus 32.7% in the integral group (odds ratio, 0.92 [95% CI, 0.65–1.30],
P
=0.64). Complete ST-segment resolution 1 hour after pPCI was present in 59.9% in the crushed group versus 57.3% in the integral group (odds ratio, 1.11 [95% CI, 0.78–1.58],
P
=0.55). Platelet reactivity at the beginning of pPCI, measured as P2Y
12
reactivity unit, differed significantly between groups (crushed, 192 [132–245] versus integral, 227 [184–254],
P
≤0.01). TIMI major and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium ≥3 bleeding occurred in 0% in the crushed group versus 0.8% in the integral group, and in 0.3% in the crushed group versus 1.1% in the integral group, respectively. There were no differences observed between groups regarding ischemic events at 30 days.
Conclusions:
Prehospital administration of crushed prasugrel tablets does not improve TIMI 3 flow in the infarct-related artery before pPCI or complete ST-segment resolution 1 h after pPCI in patients presenting with ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction scheduled for pPCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dual antiplatelet therapy constitutes the cornerstone of medical treatment in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, oral antiplatelet agents, such as prasugrel or ticagrelor, are characterized by slow gastrointestinal drug absorption in the acute phase of STEMI, leading to decreased bioavailability and therefore delayed onset of platelet inhibition. Evidence suggests that administration of crushed tablets of the P2Y12 inhibitor prasugrel improves drug absorption and achieves earlier antiplatelet effects in STEMI patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, the clinical implications of these pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic findings are unknown. HYPOTHESIS The present study is designed to test the hypothesis that patients presenting with STEMI planned for primary PCI will have improved markers of optimal reperfusion and clinical outcomes by prehospital administration of crushed tablets of prasugrel loading dose. STUDY DESIGN COMPARE CRUSH (NCT03296540) is a randomized trial in a regionally organized ambulance care setting evaluating the efficacy and safety of pre-hospital loading dose with prasugrel crushed tablets versus integral tablets in approximately 674 patients presenting with STEMI planned for primary PCI. The independent primary endpoints are percentage of patients reaching thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade 3 in the infarct-related artery at initial angiography, or achieving ≥70% ST-segment elevation resolution at 1 hour post-PCI. Secondary clinical endpoints are death, myocardial infarction, revascularization, and stent thrombosis followed up to 1 year. Moreover, the primary safety endpoint is bleeding events assessed at 48 hours. CONCLUSIONS The COMPARE CRUSH trial will assess whether prehospital administration of loading dose prasugrel in form of crushed tablets - which is expected to provide faster platelet inhibition compared to standard treatment with integral tablets - results in improved reperfusion and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) fractional flow reserve (FFR) is a significant predictor of major adverse cardiac events (MACE). The rationale for low post procedural FFR values often remains elusive based on angiographic findings alone, warranting further assessment using an FFR pullback or additional intravascular imaging. It is currently unknown if additional interventions intended to improve the PCI, decrease MACE rates. STUDY DESIGN The FFR REACT trial is a prospective, single-center randomized controlled trial in which 290 patients with a post PCI FFR <0.90 will be randomized (1:1) to either standard of care (no additional intervention) or intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-directed optimization of the FFR (treatment arm). Eligible patients are those treated with angiographically successful PCI for (un)stable angina or non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (MI). Assuming 45% of patients will have a post PCI FFR <0.90, approximately 640 patients undergoing PCI will need to be enrolled. Patients with a post PCI FFR ≥ 0.90 will be enrolled in a prospective registry. The primary end point is defined as a composite of cardiac death, target vessel MI and clinically driven target vessel revascularisation (target vessel failure) at 1 year. Secondary end points will consist of individual components of the primary end point, procedural success, stent thrombosis and correlations on clinical outcome, changes in post PCI Pd/Pa and FFR and IVUS derived dimensions. All patients will be followed for 3 years. CONCLUSION The FFR-REACT trial is designed to explore the potential benefit of HD-IVUS-guided PCI optimization in patients with a post PCI FFR <0.90 (Dutch trial register: NTR6711).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dedicated data on the prevalence of incidental findings (IF) stratified according to overall clinical relevance and their subsequent correlation to outcome are lacking. The aim of the present study was to describe the prevalence and consequences of noncardiac IF on computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging in the workup for interventional cardiovascular procedures. METHODS A total of 916 patients underwent preprocedural computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging in the workup for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), renal sympathetic denervation (RDN), or MitraClip implantation. RESULTS IF were found in 395 of 916 patients (43.1%), with an average of 1.8 IF per patient. Classifying the IF resulted in 155 patients with minor, 171 patients with moderate, and 69 patients with major IF. The intended procedure was delayed or canceled in only 15 of 916 (1.6%) of the patients because of the presence of potential malignant IF. In patients that did undergo the intended procedure (n = 774), the presence of a moderate or major IF (23.8%) did not impact 1-year mortality compared to no or minor IF (adjusted HR 0.90, 95% CI 0.56-1.44, P value = .65). These findings were consistent among patients referred for TAVI, RDN, or MitraClip. CONCLUSIONS IF are frequent in patients referred for cardiovascular procedures. IF did not result in a delay or cancellation of the intended procedure in the vast majority of cases, irrespective of their clinical relevance. The presence of a major or moderate IF did not significantly impact 1-year mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Significant left main (LM) stem disease is potentially life-threatening and mandates revascularization. This study aimed to assess how patients rate the importance of particular features of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), how this determines their preference for a particular treatment strategy, and whether particular personality characteristics influence this preference. METHODS AND RESULTS In total, 1145 patients who visited the outpatient clinic of the Erasmus Medical Center for stable coronary artery disease were asked to complete a case vignette-questionnaire on a hypothetical significant LM stenosis amenable to PCI or CABG. To assess the individual's personality disposition and general distress level, each patient had to complete a set of 3 standardized, validated questionnaires with satisfactory psychometric properties. Overall 89% of patients preferred PCI to CABG. PCI was the preferred strategy despite a higher risk for repeat revascularization and need for more medication. Remarkably, the fact that a risk for repeat revascularization is more common in the PCI group is less important for the patients who opt for PCI. Risk for stroke and bleeding were the most important arguments to opt for PCI over CABG. Type D personality, depression, and anxiety were all associated with a relatively higher preference for CABG as revascularization strategy. CONCLUSION Overall, when given the choice patients seem to have a clear preference for PCI over CABG and consider stroke and bleeding important procedure-related complications. Patients with Type D personality, depression, or anxiety favor CABG.

Abstract
Background Coronary artery perforation (CAP) is a potentially lethal complication of percutaneous coronary intervention. We report on the incidence, clinical characteristics, and management of iatrogenic coronary perforations based on an 11‐year single‐center experience. Methods and Results From February 9, 2005, through November 20, 2016, 150 CAP cases were identified from our percutaneous coronary intervention database of 21 212 procedures (0.71%). Mean age of CAP patients was 66±11 years, and 62.7% were male. Treated lesion type was B2/C in 94.6%, and 31.3% were chronic total occlusions. Nonworkhorse guidewires were applied in 74.3%. CAP types were Ellis type I in 2.9%, Ellis type II in 40.4%, Ellis type III in 54.8%, and Ellis type III cavity spilling in 1.9%. CAP treatment was conservative (including prolonged balloon inflation) in 73.3%. Covered stents, coiling, and fat embolization were used in 24.0%, 0.7%, and 2.0%, respectively. Pericardiocentesis for tamponade was required for 72 patients (48.0%), of whom 28 were initially unrecognized. Twelve patients (12.7%) required emergency cardiac surgery to alleviate tamponade. Periprocedural myocardial infarction occurred in 34.0%, and in‐hospital all‐cause mortality was 8.0%. All‐cause mortality accrued to 10.7% at 30 days and 17.8% at 1 year. Conclusions CAP is a rare complication of percutaneous coronary intervention, but morbidity and mortality are considerable. Early recognition and adequate management are of paramount importance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Continuous improvements in stent technology make percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) a potential alternative to surgery in selected patients with unprotected left main coronary artery (uLMCA) disease. The optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in these patients remains undetermined, and in addition, new stent designs using a bioabsorbable polymer might allow shorter duration of DAPT. STUDY DESIGN IDEAL-LM is a prospective, randomized, multicenter study that will enroll 818 patients undergoing uLMCA PCI. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to intravascular ultrasound-guided PCI with the novel everolimus-eluting platinum-chromium Synergy stent with a biodegradable polymer (Boston Scientific, Natick, MA) followed by 4 months of DAPT or the everolimus-eluting cobalt-chromium Xience stent (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA) followed by 12 months of DAPT. The total follow-up period will be 5 years. A subset of 100 patients will undergo optical coherence tomography at 3 months. END POINTS The primary end point will be major adverse cardiovascular events (composite of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, and ischemia-driven target vessel revascularization) at 2 years. Secondary end points will consist of the individual components of the primary end point, procedural success, a device-oriented composite end point, stent thrombosis as per Academic Research Consortium criteria, and bleeding as per Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria. SUMMARY IDEAL-LM is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of the novel Synergy stent followed by 4 months of DAPT vs the Xience stent followed by 12 months of DAPT in patients undergoing uLMCA PCI. The study will provide novel insights regarding optimal treatment strategy for patients undergoing PCI of uLMCA disease (www.clinicaltrials.gov, NCT 02303717).

Abstract
AIMS Ventricular arrhythmia (VA) bursts following recanalisation in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are related to larger infarct size (IS). Inadequate microvascular reperfusion, as determined by microvascular obstruction (MVO) using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR), is also known to be associated with larger IS. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that VA bursts identify larger infarct size in spite of optimal microvascular reperfusion. METHODS All 65 STEMI patients from the Maastricht ST elevation (MAST) study with brisk epicardial flow (TIMI 3), complete ST recovery post-percutaneous coronary intervention and early CMR were included. Using 24-hour Holter registrations from the time of admission, VA bursts were identified against subject-specific Holter background VA rates using a statistical outlier method. MVO and final IS were determined using delayed enhancement CMR. RESULTS MVO was present in 37/65 (57%) of patients. IS was significantly smaller in the group without MVO (median 9.4% vs. 20.5%; p < 0.001). IS in the group with MVO did not differ depending on VA burst ( n = 28/37; median 20.8% vs. 19.7%; p = 0.64). However, in the group without MVO, VA burst was associated with significantly larger IS ( n = 17/28; median 10.5% vs. 4.1%; p = 0.037). In multivariable analyses, VA burst as well as anterior infarct location remained independent predictors of larger infarct size. CONCLUSION In the presence of suboptimal reperfusion with MVO by CMR, VA burst does not further define MI size. However, with optimal TIMI 3 reperfusion and optimal microvascular perfusion (i.e. no MVO), VA burst is associated with larger IS, indicating that VA burst is a marker of additional cell death.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early reperfusion of ischemic myocytes is essential for optimal salvage in acute myocardial infarction. VA (ventricular arrhythmia) bursts after recanalization of the culprit vessel have been found to be related to larger infarct size (IS), using SPECT. OBJECTIVE The hypothesis was tested that this finding could be confirmed in an independent cohort using a more accurate technique, i.e. delayed-enhancement cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (DE-CMR). METHODS All 196 patients from the PREPARE and MAST studies who had 24-hour, continuous, 12-lead Holter, started before primary percutaneous coronary intervention resulting in brisk TIMI (thrombolysis in myocardial infarction) 3 flow and stable ST-recovery were included. VA bursts were identified against subject-specific background VA rates using a previously published statistical outlier method. IS was assessed using DE-CMR. Angiography, Holter and DE-CMR results were assessed in core laboratories, blinded to all other data. RESULTS VA bursts were present in 154/196 (79%) of patients. Baseline characteristics between the groups with and without bursts were similar. VA burst was associated with significantly larger infarct size in the population as a whole (median 11.3% vs 5.3%; p=0.001) and also when divided in non-anterior (median 9.9% vs 4.9%; p=0.003) and anterior myocardial infarction (median 21.4% vs 12.0%; p=0.48), the latter not reaching statistical significance due to the small subset of patients. CONCLUSION Beyond the classical markers of "optimal" reperfusion such as TIMI 3 flow and stable ST-segment recovery, VA bursts occurring during the reperfusion phase are an early electrobiomarker of larger IS.
