- Timely percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) improves prognosis in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, recent reports indicate that patients with STEMI who present during non-regular working hours (off-hours) have a worse prognosis. The aim of this study was to compare outcome between patients with STEMI who underwent primary PCI during off-hours and regular hours.We retrieved data from the Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry (SCAAR) for all patients who underwent primary PCI in Region Västra Götaland due to STEMI between January 2004 and May 2013. We modeled unadjusted and adjusted Cox proportional-hazards regression and logistic regression models for the outcomes death, cardiogenic shock, stent thrombosis and in-stent restenosis. A propensity score-adjusted Cox proportional-hazards model, which adjusted for traditional cardiovascular risk factors was predefined as the primary statistical model. Death at any time during the study period was pre-specified as primary end-point.During the study period 4.611 (65%) patients underwent primary PCI due to STEMI during off-hours and 2,525 (35%) during regular hours. The risk of dying was similar among the groups for the primary endpoint death at any time during the study period (HR 1.00, 95% CI 0.89-1.12, P = 0.991) and for secondary end-point death within 30 days (HR 1.03; 95% CI 0.85-1.25, P = 0.735). The risks of developing cardiogenic shock, stent thrombosis, or in-stent restenosis were similar between the groups.In our region, short- and long-term prognosis for patients with STEMI who undergo primary PCI is similar for patients presenting during off-hours and regular hours.

- Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) improves outcomes in non-ST elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACSs). Octogenarians, however, were underrepresented in the pivotal trials. This study aimed to assess the effect of PCI in patients ≥80 years old.We used data from the SWEDEHEART registry for all hospital admissions at eight cardiac care centres within Västra Götaland County. Consecutive patients ≥80 years old admitted for NSTE-ACS between January 2000 and December 2011 were included. We performed instrumental variable analysis with propensity score. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality at 30 days and one year after index hospitalization. During the study period 5200 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. In total, 586 (11.2%) patients underwent PCI, the remaining 4613 patients were treated conservatively. Total mortality at 30 days was 19.4% (1007 events) and 39.4% (1876 events) at one year. Thirty-day mortality was 20.7% in conservatively treated patients and 8.5% in the PCI group (adjusted odds ratio 0.34; 95% confidence interval 0.12-0.97, p = 0.044). One-year mortality was 42.1% in the conservatively treated group and 16.3% in the PCI group (adjusted odds ratio 0.97; 95% confidence interval 0.36-2.51, p = 0.847).PCI in octogenarians with NSTE-ACS was associated with a lower risk of mortality at 30 days. However, this survival benefit was not sustained during the entire study-period of one-year.

- Background Ticagrelor reduces ischaemic end points in acute coronary syndromes. However, outcomes of ticagrelor versus clopidogrel in real-world patients with acute coronary syndromes treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain unclear. We sought to examine whether treatment with ticagrelor is superior to clopidogrel in unselected patients with acute coronary syndromes treated with PCI. Methods and Results We used data from SCAAR (Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry) for PCI performed in Västra Götaland County, Sweden. The database contains information about all PCI performed at 5 hospitals (∼20% of all data in SCAAR). All procedures between January 2005 and January 2015 for unstable angina/non‒ST-segment‒elevation myocardial infarction and ST-segment‒elevation myocardial infarction were included. We used instrumental variable 2-stage least squares regression to adjust for confounders. The primary combined end point was mortality or stent thrombosis at 30 days, secondary end points were mortality at 30 days and 1-year, stent thrombosis at 30 days, in-hospital bleeding, in-hospital neurologic complications and long-term mortality. A total of 15 097 patients were included in the study of which 2929 (19.4%) were treated with ticagrelor. Treatment with ticagrelor was not associated with a lower risk for the primary end point (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 1.20; 95% CI, 0.87-1.61; P=0.250). Estimated risk of death at 30 days (aOR, 1.18; 95% CI, 0.88-1.64; P=0.287) and at 1-year (aOR, 1.28; 95% CI, 0.86-1.64; P=0.556) was not different between the groups. The risk of in-hospital bleeding was higher with ticagrelor (aOR, 2.88; 95% CI, 1.53-5.44; P=0.001). Conclusions In this observational study, treatment with ticagrelor was not superior to clopidogrel in patients with acute coronary syndromes treated with PCI.
