Clinical Presentations Before AMI Onset and Coronary Atherosclerosis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study aimed to evaluate the incidence of preinfarction angina in AMI patients and test the hypothesis that different clinical presentations before AMI onset can affect coronary plaque morphologies in AMI patients .

Detailed Description
Patients with AMI who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) examination is expected to be included in this study.Data about history were prospectively collected by a standard questionaire ,especially regarding the detail information about preinfarction angina.The basic clinical characteristics,angiographic and OCT findings are compared between patients with and without preinfarction angina.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Difference in culprit lesion morphologies assessed by OCT according to the presence or absence of PIA [baseline]
Plaque rupture was defined by the presence of a cavity formation in the plaque with a discontinuity of the fibrous cap. TCFA was defined as a lipid-rich plaque with a thin fibrous cap thickness of ≤ 65 um.Thrombus was identified by OCT as an irregular mass ≧0.25 mm in diameter protruding into the vessel lumen or attached to the surface of the vessel wall.Culprit lesion features in patients with PIA show a lower incidence of plaque rupture and TCFA compared to those without PIA.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- In-hospital outcomes after AMI. [baseline]
Infarct size was measured as the peak cardiac troponin I (cTnI) level.PIA is associated with lower infarct size and lower in-hospital mortality.
