Contemporary Status of Acute Myocardial Infarction in Korean Patients: Korean Registry of Acute Myocardial Infarction for Regional Cardiocerebrovascular Centers.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study aimed to present the development process and characteristics of the Korean Registry of Acute Myocardial Infarction for Regional Cardiocerebrovascular Centers (KRAMI-RCC).

Methods

We developed KRAMI-RCC, a web-based registry for patients with AMI. Patients from 14 RCCs were registered for more than three years from July 2016. It includes an automatic error-checking system, and user training and on-site monitoring are performed to manage data quality.

Results

A total of 11,700 AMI patients were registered in KRAMI-RCC over three years (73.9% men). The proportions of patients with ST-elevation and non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction at discharge were 43.4% and 56.6%, respectively. Of the total three-year patients, 5.6% died in the hospital, and 4.4% died 12 months after discharge. The case fatality within 12 months was 9.7%. Pre-hospital care data showed delayed arrival time after onset of symptoms (median 153 min) and low transportation rate by public ambulance (25.2%). Post-hospital care data showed lower participation rate in the second rehabilitation program (16.8%).

Conclusions

The recently developed KRAMI-RCC registry has been more focused on pre-hospital and post-hospital data, which will be helpful in understanding the current state of AMI disease management and in making policy decisions to reduce case fatality in Korea.

Project description:Background Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide, whereas social support is a known predictor of the prognosis after AMI. As a common factor influencing social support, the impact of marital status on care quality, in-hospital mortality, and long-term prognosis of patients with AMI remains largely unknown. Methods and Results The present study analyzed data from the CAMI (China Acute Myocardial Infarction) registry involving 19 912 patients with AMI admitted at 108 hospitals in China between January 2013 and September 2014 and aimed to evaluate marital status-based differences in acute management, medical therapies, and short-term and long-term outcomes. The primary end point was 2-year all-cause death. The secondary end points included in-hospital death and 2-year major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, or stroke). After multivariable adjustment, 1210 (6.1%) unmarried patients received less reperfusion treatment in patients with both ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction and non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 0.520 [95% CI, 0.437-0.618]; P<0.0001; adjusted OR, 0.489 [95% CI, 0.364-0.656]; P<0.0001). Being unmarried was not associated with poorer in-hospital outcome but with long-term all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events in both ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 1.225 [95% CI, 1.031-1.456]; P=0.0209; adjusted HR, 1.277 [95% CI, 1.089-1.498]; P=0.0027) and non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (adjusted HR, 1.302 [95% CI, 1.036-1.638]; P=0.0239; adjusted HR, 1.368 [95% CI, 1.105-1.694]; P=0.0040) populations. Conclusions The present study suggests that being unmarried is independently related to less reperfusion received, but could not explain the higher in-hospital mortality rate after covariate adjustment. Being unmarried is associated with a substantially increased risk of adverse events over at least the first 24 months after AMI.

Project description:BackgroundWith the growing burden of non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), developing countries face great challenges in providing equitable treatment nationwide. However, little is known about hospital-level disparities in the quality of NSTEMI care in China. We aimed to investigate the variations in NSTEMI care and patient outcomes across the three hospital levels (province-, prefecture- and county-level, with decreasing scale) in China.MethodsData were derived from the China Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry on patients with NSTEMI consecutively registered between January 2013 and November 2016 from 31 provinces and municipalities throughout mainland China. Patients were categorized according to the hospital level they were admitted to. Multilevel generalized mixed models were fitted to examine the relationship between the hospital level and in-hospital mortality risk.ResultsIn total, 8,054 patients with NSTEMI were included (province-level: 1,698 patients; prefecture-level: 5,240 patients; county-level: 1,116 patients). Patients in the prefecture- and county-level hospitals were older, more likely to be female, and presented worse cardiac function than those in the province-level hospitals (P <0.05). Compared with the province-level hospitals, the rate of invasive strategies was significantly lower in the prefecture- and county-level hospitals (65.3, 43.3, and 15.4%, respectively, P <0.001). Invasive strategies were performed within the guideline-recommended timeframe in 25.4, 9.7, and 1.7% of very-high-risk patients, and 16.4, 7.4, and 2.4% of high-risk patients in province-, prefecture- and county-level hospitals, respectively (both P <0.001). The use of dual antiplatelet therapy in the county-level hospitals (87.2%) remained inadequate compared to the province- (94.5%, P <0.001) and prefecture-level hospitals (94.5%, P <0.001). There was an incremental trend of in-hospital mortality from province- to prefecture- to county-level hospitals (3.0, 4.4, and 6.9%, respectively, P-trend <0.001). After stepwise adjustment for patient characteristics, presentation, hospital facilities and in-hospital treatments, the hospital-level gap in mortality risk gradually narrowed and lost statistical significance in the fully adjusted model [Odds ratio: province-level vs. prefecture-level: 1.23 (0.73-2.05), P = 0.441; province-level vs. county-level: 1.61 (0.80-3.26), P = 0.182; P-trend = 0.246].ConclusionsThere were significant variations in NSTEMI presentation and treatment patterns across the three hospital levels in China, which may largely explain the hospital-level disparity in in-hospital mortality. Quality improvement initiatives are warranted, especially among lower-level hospitals.
