Targeting elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure following primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction – a phase one safety and feasibility study

Abstract: Introduction: Elevated left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) is an independent predictor of mortality and heart failure in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Whether lowering elevated LVEDP improves outcomes remains unknown. Methods: This non-randomized, single blinded study with prospective enrolment and sequential group allocation recruited patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention for STEMI with LVEDP ⩾ 20 mmHg measured immediately after primary … Show more

“…Despite the advancements in the management of patients with STEMI, elevated LVEDP has seldom been used as a treatment target. The elevated LVEDP in STEMI patients without cardiogenic shock can be safely reduced pharmacologically in the acute setting after primary PCI with a combination of nitrates and diuretics [ 26 ]. Thus, it is enticing to speculate that the early reduction in LVEDP in STEMI patients, specifically targeting those with the highest LVEDP, will reduce LVR and improve outcomes; however this hypothesis remains to be tested in prospective randomised controlled trials, such as the ongoing Reduction of End Diastolic Pressure in Acute Myocardial Infarction [REDPAMI] trial (registered at ANZCTR.org.au; registration number ACTRN12618000096257).…”

“…3 In individuals with STEMI, the left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) is an important hemodynamics marker that has been demonstrated to be strongly associated with heart failure and death. 4,5 It is feasible and can be easily measured during primary PCI. However, LVEDP is often omitted in routine clinical practice.…”

“…In acute MI, pre-existing hypertrophy or myocardial fibrosis can also lead to the progression and development of diastolic dysfunction. 5 Several studies have established the prognostic role of LVEDP in acute MI settings, [4][5][6]8 however, only limited studies have explored the relationship of LVEDP with the severity and extent of coronary artery diseases. 8,10 Therefore, the objective of this study was to assess the association of LVEDP with extent and severity of CAD in individuals undergoing primary PCI at a tertiary care cardiac center of Karachi, Pakistan.…”
