Pathway: Triage and Transfer for PCI (in STEMI) STEMI patient who is a candidate for reperfusion Initially seen at a PCI capable facility Send to Cath Lab for primary PCI (Class I, LOE:A) Prep antithrombotic (anticoagulant plus antiplatelet) regimen Diagnostic angio Transfer for primary PCI (Class I, LOE:A) At PCI facility, evaluate for timing of diagnostic angio Initially seen at a non-pci capable facility HIGH RISK Transfer to a PCI facility is reasonable for early diagnostic angio & possible PCI or CABG (Class IIa, LOE:B), High-risk patients as defined by 2007 Medical PCI CABG STEMI Focused therapy only Update should undergo cath (Class 1: LOE B) 2009 STEMI Focused Update. Appendix 5 Initial Treatment with fibrinolytic therapy (Class 1, LOE:A) NOT HIGH RISK Transfer to a PCI facility may be considered (Class IIb, LOE:C), especially if ischemic symptoms persist and failure to reperfuse is suspected

Clinical Implications Incremental time delays to reperfusion have the greatest t impact on myocardial salvage and survival in the first 2-3 hours and have much less impact after 3 hours.

TRANSFER-AMI Study of pharmacoinvasive strategy 1059 patients with STEMI non-pci-capable hospitals within 12 hrs of symptom onset with 1 high-risk feature Cantor et al. N Eng J Med 2009;360:26.

Recommendations for Triage and Transfer for PCI: *High Risk Definition Defined in TRANSFER-AMI AMI as >2 mmst STsegment elevation in 2 anterior leads or ST elevation at least 1 mm in inferior leads with at least one of the following: systolic blood pressure <100 mm Hg heart rate >100 beats per minute Killip Class II-III >2 mm of ST-segment depression in the anterior leads >1mm of ST elevation in right-sided lead V4 indicative of right ventricular involvement Cantor et al. N Eng J Med 2009;360:26.

TRANSFER-AMI--Design All patients received standard-dose tenecteplase (TNK), ASA, and either UFH or enoxaparin. a pharmaco-invasive strategy (immediate transfer for PCI within 6 hours of fibrinolytic therapy) or to standard treatment after fibrinolytic therapy (included rescue PCI as required for ongoing chest pain and less than 50% resolution of STelevation at 60-90 minutes or hemodynamic instability). Standard treatment patients who did not require rescue PCI remained at the initial hospital for at least 24 hours and coronary angiography within the first 2 weeks encouraged Cantor et al. N Eng J Med 2009;360:26.

TRANSFER-AMI--Design (cont.) Clopidogrel loading (300 mg for patients < 75 years of age, and 75 mg >75 years of age) strongly encouraged in all study patients GP IIb/IIIa receptor antagonists administered at the PCI-capable hospitals according to institutions standard practice Cantor et al. N Eng J Med 2009;360:26.

TRANSFER-AMI: Results Procedures Median time to TNK administration from symptom onset Pharmaco-invasive vs. Standard Treatment Approximately 2 hrs in both groups Median time from 2.8 hrs vs. 32.5 hrs TNK to catheterization Coronary 98.5% vs. 88.7% angiography PCI performed 84.9% vs. 67.4% Cantor et al.

N Engl J Med 2009;360:26

TRANSFER-AMI--Safety Results Incidence of TIMI major and minor bleeding and GUSTO moderate and severe bleeding was not different between groups There was higher incidence of GUSTO mild bleeding in the pharmaco-invasive group (13.0% compared to 9.0% in the standard treatment group, p=0.036). Cantor et al. N Eng J M 2009;360:26.

TRANSFER-AMI Study Conclusion Following treatment with fibrinolytic therapy in high risk STEMI pts presenting to hospitals without PCIcapability, transfer to a PCI center to undergo coronary angiography and PCI should be initiated immediately without waiting to determine whether reperfusion has occurred. Cantor et al. N Eng J M 2009;360:26.

CARESS-IN-AMI: AMI: inclusion Criteria STEMI patients presenting within 12 hours from symptom onset with one or more of the following high-risk criteria: summation of ST-segment elevation 15 mm in all 12 ECG leads, new left bundle branch block, previous MI, Killip class II or III, and left ventricular ejection fraction <35%

CARESS-IN-AMI: Primary Outcome primary outcome (composite of all cause mortality, reinfarction, & refractory MI within 30 days) occurred significantly less often in the immediate PCI group vs. standard care/rescue PCI group 10.7% 44% 4.4% HR=0.40 (0.21-0.76) Di Mario et al. Lancet 2008;371.

Effects of Abciximab P= 047 0.47 P= 0.40 No significant difference in infarct size or major bleeding Mehilli et al. Circ. 2009;119:1933-1940

Use of Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Receptor Antagonists in STEMI Modified Recommendation I IIa IIb III It is reasonable to start treatment with glycoprotein gy IIb/IIIa receptor antagonists at the time of primary PCI (with or without stenting) in selected patients with STEMI: abciximab I IIa IIb III tirofiban and eptifibatide

CONCLUSIONS: STEMI patients who present to hospitals with requisite facilities and expertise, PPCI is the preferred strategy. t Fibrinolysis without delay may provide maximal advantage in younger patients at low risk of hemorrhage and mortality presenting earlier (only if the delay to PPCI is beyond the acceptable time frame for that patient), High-risk STEMI patients, except very early STEMI patients without Q waves on the admission ECG, might benefit from PPCI, even when longer delays are unavoidable. Routine but non-emergent invasive strategy after fibrinolytic therapy is not only safe and effective but also the preferred approach.
