Guideline adherence and long-term clinical outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction: a Japanese Registry of Acute Myocardial Infarction Diagnosed by Universal Definition (J-MINUET) substudy

Abstract: Background: The association between guideline adherence and long-term outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction in real-world clinical practice remains unclear. Methods: We investigated 3283 consecutive patients with acute myocardial infarction who were selected from a prospective, nation-wide, multicentre registry (J-MINUET) database covering 28 institutions in Japan between July 2012 and March 2014. Among the 2757 eligible patients, we evaluated the use of seven guideline-recommended therapies, i… Show more

“…Acute myocardial infarction (AMI), the myocardial ischemic necrosis resulting from the blockage of coronary arteries, is a common critical illness with the characteristics such as rapid disease progression, poor clinical prognosis, and high mortality [ 1 , 2 ]. Early reperfusion is the key to rescuing patients, and studies have found that [ 3 ] the case fatality rate reaches 6% in those who received reperfusion with onset >6 h and decreases to 2% in those who received reperfusion with onset <1 h, indicating that prompt rescue is significant in reducing the mortality of AMI patients [ 4 , 5 ]. Routine first aid processes are cumbersome and significantly delay the rescue time, so optimization is necessary [ 6 , 7 ].…”

“…More importantly, the encouraging findings of the absence of a July effect reflect greater adherence to guideline-directed clinical care and protocols and an overall decline in in-hospital mortality associated with AMI in the contemporary era. [27][28][29][30] Further, the increased focus on improving quality of cardiovascular care has resulted in several individual and composite quality measures and metrics that are frequently assessed through national programs. [31][32][33] Therefore, in recent years a greater emphasis has been placed on care-patterns and outcomes of acute cardiac conditions including AMI.…”

“…These contrasting findings could be related to the larger and more recent study cohort in the present analysis and differences in classification of hospitals as teaching intensive and nonteaching. More importantly, the encouraging findings of the absence of a July effect reflect greater adherence to guideline‐directed clinical care and protocols and an overall decline in in‐hospital mortality associated with AMI in the contemporary era 27–30 . Further, the increased focus on improving quality of cardiovascular care has resulted in several individual and composite quality measures and metrics that are frequently assessed through national programs 31–33 .…”
