Abstract
Objective To evaluate the effect of tirofiban on short-term prognosis of elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods Totally 325 ACS patients were divided into two groups: Tirofiban group(n = 210) and control group(n= 115).All subjects underwent PCI with drug-eluting stents.Patients in tirofiban group received tirofiban,in addition to aspirin and clopidogrel.Patients in control group received oral administration of aspirin and clopi-dogrel only.The general data,the rate of thrombolysis in myocardial infarction(TIMI) grade 3 flow immediately after PCI,the in-stent thrombosis incidence,mild and severe bleeding rate,platelet decrease rate,mortality,and incidences of myocardial infarction (MI) and target vessel revascularization(TVR) at 30 days after PCI were compared between the two groups.Results The rate of TIMI grade 3 flow immediately after PCI was significantly higher in Tirofiban group than in control group(99.05%vs 94.78%,P0.05).The in-stent thrombosis incidence was lower in Tirofiban group than in control group(0.47%vs 3.47%,P0.01).The mortality and incidences of MI and TVR at 30 days after PCI were lower in Tirofiban group than in control group(0.00%vs 2.61%,0.47%vs 3.47%,and 0.47%vs 1.73%,P0.01).The mild bleeding rate was higher in Tirofiban group than in control group,with no significant difference(7.14%vs 4.35%,P0.05).The rates of severe bleeding and platelets decrease were not significantly different between the two groups(0.00%vs 0.00%,and 0.95%vs 0.87%,P0.05).Conclusion Tirofiban can improve the TIMI grade flow in elderly patients with ACS after PCI.It can also decrease the in-stent thrombosis incidence,mortality,and incidences of MI and TVR at 30 days after PCI,but do not increase the rates of severe bleeding and platelets decrease in these patients.So it can improve the short-term prognosis in elderly patients with ACS undergoing PCI.
期刊介绍:
Chinese Journal of Multiple Organ Diseases in the Elderly (monthly) is a medical academic journal under the supervision of PLA General Hospital, sponsored by PLA General Hospital Medical Innovation Research Department, National Clinical Medical Research Center for Geriatric Diseases (PLA General Hospital), and Department of Cardiovascular Medicine of the Sixth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital, and publicly issued at home and abroad. This journal was founded in June 2002 and is a Chinese Science and Technology Paper Statistical Source Journal (China Science and Technology Core Journal), and is included in major domestic retrieval systems and well-known domestic and foreign retrieval systems such as the American Chemical Abstracts.
As the only academic journal in China that reflects multi-organ diseases in the elderly, Chinese Journal of Multiple Organ Diseases in the Elderly mainly exchanges the diagnosis and treatment experience and lessons of cardiovascular diseases in the elderly, especially cardiovascular diseases in the elderly combined with other diseases, diseases of more than two organs in the elderly, and other multiple diseases in the elderly, explores their pathogenesis and effective diagnosis and treatment measures, and focuses on reporting the latest clinical, basic and preventive achievements and experiences in the research of the above diseases in my country with innovative significance; the main readers are medical, scientific research and teaching personnel engaged in geriatric cardiology and (or) geriatric medicine and related diseases.
The main columns include expert comments, special forums, clinical research, basic research, clinical pharmacy, case reports, new technologies and methods, clinical pathology discussions, reviews, academic trends, expert popular science lectures, etc.
