Outcomes Of Comatose Cardiac Arrest Survivors With And Without St-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Importance Of Coronary Angiography., Karl B Kern, Kapildeo Lotun, Nainesh Patel, Michael R Mooney, Ryan D Hollenbeck, John A Mcpherson, Paul W Mcmullan, Barbara Unger, Chiu-Hsieh Hsu, David B Seder

Nainesh C Patel MD

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to compare outcomes and coronary angiographic findings in post-cardiac arrest patients with and without ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). BACKGROUND: The 2013 STEMI guidelines recommend performing immediate angiography in resuscitated patients whose initial electrocardiogram shows STEMI. The optimal approach for those without STEMI post-cardiac arrest is less clear. METHODS: A retrospective evaluation of a post-cardiac arrest registry was performed. RESULTS: The database consisted of 746 comatose post-cardiac arrest patients including 198 with STEMI (26.5%) and 548 without STEMI (73.5%). Overall survival was greater in those with STEMI compared with those without (55.1% vs. …

Risk Of Heart Failure And Death After Prolonged Smoking Cessation: Role Of Amount And Duration Of Prior Smoking., Amiya A Ahmed, Kanan Patel, Margaret A Nyaku, Raya E Kheirbek, Vera Bittner, Gregg C Fonarow, Gerasimos S Filippatos, Charity J Morgan, Inmaculada Aban, Marjan Mujib, Ravi Desai, Richard M Allman, Michel White, Prakash Deedwania, George Howard, Robert O Bonow, Ross D Fletcher, Wilbert S Aronow, Ali Ahmed

Ravi V Desai MD

BACKGROUND: -According to the 2004 Surgeon General's Report on Health Consequences of Smoking, after >15 years of abstinence, the cardiovascular risk of former smokers becomes similar to that of never-smokers. Whether this health benefit of smoking cessation varies by amount and duration of prior smoking remains unclear.

METHODS AND RESULTS: -Of the 4482 adults ≥65 years without prevalent heart failure (HF) in the Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS), 2556 were never-smokers, 629 current smokers, and 1297 former smokers with >15 years of cessation, of whom 312 were heavy smokers (highest quartile; ≥32 pack-years). Age-sex-race-adjusted hazard ratios (aHR) and 95% confidence intervals …

Early Cardiac Catheterization Is Associated With Improved Survival In Comatose Survivors Of Cardiac Arrest Without Stemi, Ryan Hollenbeck, John Mcpherson, Michael Mooney, Barbara Unger, Nainesh Patel, Paul Mcmullan, Chiu-Hsieh Hsu, David Seder, Karl Kern

Nainesh C Patel MD

AIM: To determine if early cardiac catheterization (CC) is associated with improved survival in comatose patients who are resuscitated after cardiac arrest when electrocardiographic evidence of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is absent.

METHODS: We conducted a retrospective observational study of a prospective cohort of 754 consecutive comatose patients treated with therapeutic hypothermia (TH) following cardiac arrest.

RESULTS: A total of 269 (35.7%) patients had cardiac arrest due to a ventricular arrhythmia without STEMI and were treated with TH. Of these, 122 (45.4%) received CC while comatose (early CC). Acute coronary occlusion was discovered in 26.6% of patients treated with early …
