BackgroundBackground
Late presentation with acute STEMI Late presentation with acute STEMI a relatively common and challenging a relatively common and challenging problemproblem
Clear evidence supporting efficacy of Clear evidence supporting efficacy of primary PCI early in acute STEMI primary PCI early in acute STEMI (within 12hrs)(within 12hrs)
Utility of PCI late in the course of Utility of PCI late in the course of STEMI in otherwise stable patients STEMI in otherwise stable patients (>12hrs) has not been proven(>12hrs) has not been proven
Late Open-Artery Late Open-Artery HypothesisHypothesis
Late patency of the IRA correlates Late patency of the IRA correlates closely with improved survival after closely with improved survival after acute MIacute MI Observational studies (retrospective) have Observational studies (retrospective) have
shown improved outcomes in patients shown improved outcomes in patients with patent IRA vs permanent occlusionwith patent IRA vs permanent occlusion
Experimental data in lab animals shows Experimental data in lab animals shows increased apoptosis and adverse increased apoptosis and adverse remodeling with permanent coronary remodeling with permanent coronary occlusionocclusion
Clinical Question & Clinical Question & ObjectivesObjectives
Clinical Question: Clinical Question: Does mechanical intervention (PCI) to achieve Does mechanical intervention (PCI) to achieve
reperfusion of the IRA late in the course of acute reperfusion of the IRA late in the course of acute MI (>12hrs from symptom onset) translate to MI (>12hrs from symptom onset) translate to clinical benefit?clinical benefit?
Hypothesis: That PCI late in acute MI Hypothesis: That PCI late in acute MI improves survival by means of reduced improves survival by means of reduced adverse remodeling and improved cardiac adverse remodeling and improved cardiac function function
Objectives: to perform a meta-analysis of all Objectives: to perform a meta-analysis of all relevant trials testing the above hypothesisrelevant trials testing the above hypothesis

ConclusionsConclusions
Regarding PCI in Regarding PCI in stable stable survivors of survivors of acute STEMI, current data including acute STEMI, current data including the recent OAT shows that the recent OAT shows that late (> late (> 12hrs) PCI12hrs) PCI is is neitherneither superiorsuperior nor nor inferiorinferior to optimal medical therapy to optimal medical therapy alone in terms of altering survival, or alone in terms of altering survival, or any other combined clinical endpointany other combined clinical endpoint
