Successful emergent transcatheter aortic valve implantation and left ventricular unloading by Impella in a patient with severe aortic stenosis who experienced cardiogenic shock after primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ST-elevation myocardial infarction: a case report.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Determining the treatment strategy for cardiogenic shock following ST-elevation myocardial infarction in a patient with severe aortic stenosis remains challenging and is a matter of debate.

Case summary

An 84-year-old man with chest pain was transferred to our institute and subsequently diagnosed with ST-elevation myocardial infarction and Killip class III heart failure. The patient was intubated, and urgent coronary angiography revealed severe tandem stenosis from the proximal to mid-left anterior descending coronary artery. We performed a primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and deployed drug-eluting stents from the left main trunk to mid-left anterior descending coronary artery. Although the procedure was successful, the patient went into cardiogenic shock a few hours later. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed low cardiac function and severe aortic stenosis. We decided to perform transcatheter aortic valve implantation using a self-expandable valve, followed by the insertion of a left ventricular assist device. The combination of procedures achieved haemodynamic stability.

Discussion

It is difficult to treat cardiogenic shock that develops in patients with severe aortic stenosis and ST-elevation myocardial infarction. This case report demonstrates that combined transcatheter aortic valve replacement using a self-expanding valve and left ventricular assist device placement can be safe and effective after a primary PCI.

Project description:BackgroundGuidelines strongly recommend additional intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) therapy in STEMI patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) treated by primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, there is no randomised evidence suggesting survival benefit of IABP treatment in CS. It is suggested that timing of initiation of IABP therapy could be of great importance. Therefore, we compared mortality rates of IABP therapy versus no IABP therapy in the setting of STEMI complicated by CS. In addition, we investigated the effect of initiation of IABP therapy on mortality.MethodsFrom a cohort of 292 STEMI patients with CS treated by primary PCI, 199 patients received IABP therapy (IABP group) and 93 patients received no support (no IABP group). The IABP group was divided into two subgroups based on timing of initiation of support, i.e. 'IABP pre PCI' (n = 59) and 'IABP post PCI' (n = 140). Outcomes were assessed by propensity stratification and multivariate logistic regression.ResultsAll-cause 30-day mortality for the IABP versus the no IABP group was 47 % vs. 28 %, respectively, in univariate analysis resulting in an odds ratio (OR) of 1.67 (95%CI, 1.16 to 2.39). However, analyses adjusting outcomes by propensity stratification and logistic regression, respectively, neutralised this OR. In the IABP pre-PCI group vs. the post-PCI group 30-day mortality was 64 % vs. 40 %, resulting in an OR of 1.56 (95 % CI, 1.18 to 2.08). However, after propensity stratification analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis, there were no significant differences in odds of 30-day mortality.ConclusionIn our cohort of patients with STEMI complicated by CS treated with primary PCI we observed a difference in mortality between those treated with IABP and those treated without IABP in favour of the 'no IABP' group. The mortality difference was eliminated after adjustment for differences in case mix by propensity stratification or by logistic regression analysis. Neither did we observe any difference in mortality between patients whose IABP treatment was initiated before or immediately after PCI.

Project description:BackgroundThe approved use of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for aortic stenosis has expanded substantially over time. However, gaps remain with respect to accurately delineating risk for poor clinical and patient-centered outcomes. Our objective was to develop prediction models for 30-day clinical and patient-centered outcomes after TAVR within a large, diverse community-based population.MethodsWe identified all adults who underwent TAVR between 2013-2019 at Kaiser Permanente Northern California, an integrated healthcare delivery system, and were monitored for the following 30-day outcomes: all-cause death, improvement in quality of life, all-cause hospitalizations, all-cause emergency department (ED) visits, heart failure (HF)-related hospitalizations, and HF-related ED visits. We developed prediction models using gradient boosting machines using linked demographic, clinical and other data from the Society for Thoracic Surgeons (STS)/American College of Cardiology (ACC) TVT Registry and electronic health records. We evaluated model performance using area under the curve (AUC) for model discrimination and associated calibration plots. We also evaluated the association of individual predictors with outcomes using logistic regression for quality of life and Cox proportional hazards regression for all other outcomes.ResultsWe identified 1,565 eligible patients who received TAVR. The risks of adverse 30-day post-TAVR outcomes ranged from 1.3% (HF hospitalizations) to 15.3% (all-cause ED visits). In models with the highest discrimination, discrimination was only moderate for death (AUC 0.60) and quality of life (AUC 0.62), but better for HF-related ED visits (AUC 0.76). Calibration also varied for different outcomes. Importantly, STS risk score only independently predicted death and all-cause hospitalization but no other outcomes. Older age also only independently predicted HF-related ED visits, and race/ethnicity was not significantly associated with any outcomes.ConclusionsDespite using a combination of detailed STS/ACC TVT Registry and electronic health record data, predicting short-term clinical and patient-centered outcomes after TAVR remains challenging. More work is needed to identify more accurate predictors for post-TAVR outcomes to support personalized clinical decision making and monitoring strategies.
