The LOHAS registry evaluated the effect of tolvaptan in patients (mean age: 85 years) with severe AS and ADHF, demonstrating stable hemodynamics and sufficient diuresis. We investigated predictors of rapid successful decongestion. In the LOHAS study, eligible patients received tolvaptan (7.5 mg) on day 1 plus standard ADHF treatments. Patients were divided based on decongestion achievement on day 4. Of 59 enrolled, 35 (59%) achieved decongestion (decongestion group), and 24 (41%) remained congested (congestion group). Changes in body weight, renal function, and hemodynamics were comparable between groups over the first 4 days. However, the maximum inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter at admission was significantly larger in the decongestion group than the congestion group (12.6 ± 6.3 vs. 7.6 ± 4.8 mm, p = 0.007). ROC analysis revealed a cut-off of 11 mm for maximum IVC diameter to predict decongestion on day 4 (AUC: 0.73, 95% CI 0.58-0.88). In-hospital mortality was lower in the decongestion group (0% vs. 13%, p = 0.06). In conclusion, in this high-risk severe AS and ADHF population, adding tolvaptan to standard therapy may rapidly improve decompensation if patients have a sufficiently expanded IVC at admission. Maximum IVC diameter could predict successful decongestion with tolvaptan.</p>","PeriodicalId":9439,"journal":{"name":"Cardiovascular Intervention and Therapeutics","volume":" ","pages":"619-628"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143398054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to determine the feasibility of OCT-guided primary PCI and identify the patient population that would benefit most from OCT guidance in STEMI. The ATLAS-OCT trial was a prospective, single-arm, all-comers study conducted at 16 institutions. The primary endpoint was the feasibility of OCT guidance for primary PCI, defined as successful image acquisition (vessel's circumferential or > 270° visualization along > 70% of the lesion's length, as evaluated by an independent core laboratory). A total of 632 patients (mean age: 68.4 years; 80.2% male) were enrolled in the study. OCT-guided PCI was performed in 503 patients, whereas OCT guidance was avoided in 129 patients for patient's condition. Successful image acquisition was achieved in all but seven patients who underwent OCT. The primary endpoint was achieved in 78.5% (496/632) of patients. No procedural complications were associated with OCT. Patients with left main disease (adjusted odds ratio, 4.1; 95% confidence interval, 1.2-14.7; p = 0.024), estimated glomerular filtration rate (mL/min/1.73 m²) < 30 (3.7; 1.6-8.3; p = 0.002), and Killip IV (2.5; 1.3-4.6; p = 0.003) were significantly avoided for OCT guidance.

Multivariate analysis showed that WHO-FC improvement correlated with male sex, baseline PVR, and BPA during follow-up. WHO-FC deterioration was associated with cancer, history of pulmonary endarterectomy and/or BPA at registration, bleeding risks, and thyroid disease or hormone therapy.
