Abstract
Background
The clinical governance of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has markedly changed in the last few years. We sought to assess the contemporary in-hospital management patterns of patients with AMI at a country level.
Methods
EYESHOT (EmploYEd antithrombotic therapies in patients with acute coronary Syndromes HOspitalized in iTalian cardiac care units)-2 was a nationwide, prospective registry aimed to evaluate the current management of patients admitted to intensive cardiac care units (CCUs) for an AMI in Italy.
Results
Over a 4-week period (February 1st-29th, 2024), 183 CCUs enrolled 2806 consecutive patients: 52.6 % with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and 47.4 % with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The median time from hospital admission to angiography in NSTEMI was 22.3 h (IQR 10.9–46.1), while for STEMI was 1.1 h (IQR 0.5–2.2) with significant difference between hospitals with and without catheterization laboratories. In both NSTEMI and STEMI patients, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was the preferred management strategy (73.3 % and 94.2 %, respectively). An optimal secondary prevention therapy, including dual antiplatelet therapy, inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system, a beta-blocker and a high-intensity statin was prescribed at discharge in more than 75 % of patients with AMI. In-hospital major bleedings occurred in 2.0 % and 2.3 % (p = 0.58), while death in 1.8 % and 2.8 % (p = 0.09) of NSTEMI and STEMI patients, respectively.
Conclusions
The EYESHOT-2 registry shows the current management strategies and outcome of AMI patients admitted to Italian CCUs and provides insights to improve the clinical care of such patients.
