SYNTAX Score of Infarct-Related Artery Other Than the Number of Coronary Balloon Inflations and Deflations as an Independent Predictor of Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury in Patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Background: Although remote ischemic post-conditioning (RIPC) has been shown to prevent contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome, its efficacy in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. We examined the relationshi...

Description
Summary:Background: Although remote ischemic post-conditioning (RIPC) has been shown to prevent contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome, its efficacy in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. We examined the relationship among balloon inflations and deflations (BID) times, SYNTAX score of infarction-related artery (SI), periprocedural complications, and CIAKI in STEMI patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). Methods: Patients with STEMI undergoing pPCI with Mehran risk score (MRS) 5 were enrolled between February 2007 and September 2012. The study end point was the development of CIAKI. Results: Of 206 patients, the median age was 65 years [interquartile range (IQR): 55-77] with 72.8% male and Mehran risk score (MRS) 8 (IQR: 6-12). Receiver operating characteristic curve showed that BID times > 9 times or SI > 10was the best cut-off associated with CIAKI. In univariate analysis, significant associati
