Impact of anemia on nonfatal coronary events after percutaneous coronary interventions

Abstract: Anemia is associated with higher rates of cardiovascular events in patients with heart failure, acute myocardial infarction, and in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Although studies have focused on fatal coronary events in anemic patients following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), data is lacking regarding nonfatal coronary events. The aim of our study was to analyze the incidence of anemia in patients who developed nonfatal events after successful PCI, and to make a compariso… Show more

“…In our series, renal disease was more frequent in patients with a prior anemia, and renal dysfunction is known to be an adverse prognostic marker in patients with ischemic heart disease [26], in particular in those who are anemic [27]. In the acute phase, the presence of a prior anemia was also associated with a higher incidence of PCI failure, thus confirming previous investigations, reporting a higher occurrence of complications in anemic patients after PCI [27,28]. In fact, in patients submitted to elective PCI, anemia has a role in nonfatal thrombotic coronary events and restenosis [28] and it is associated with higher short term adverse procedural events.…”

In fact, in patients submitted to elective PCI, anemia has a role in nonfatal thrombotic coronary events and restenosis [28] and it is associated with higher short term adverse procedural events. In our series, though the use of abciximab was lower in patients with a prior anemia, the incidence of major bleedings was higher in these patients, in agreement with previous reports [4,5,19,29].…”

“…Several cohort studies have consistently demonstrated that a low hemoglobin level at admission is a powerful predictor for mortality and morbidity in patients with coronary artery disease [1,2] especially when admitted for an ACS [3][4][5][6]. Hemoglobin levels may also decrease during the hospital stay.…”

“…Catakoglu et al [13]demonstrated that anemia is an important risk factor for predicting nonfatal coronary events after PCI, which included ST-segment elevation MI, non ST-segment elevation MI, target-vessel revascularization (TVR ) and target-lesion revascularization (TLR). While Geng et al [12]found no statistic signi cant relation between low hemoglobin and ISR.…”
