Clinical Significance of Post-Procedural TIMI Flow in Patients With Cardiogenic Shock Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Abstract: Lack of procedural success (post-PCI TIMI flow grades 0 to 2 in the IRA) after primary PCI for STEMI among patients with cardiogenic shock is associated with a much higher risk of mortality compared with the risk for patients with normal post-PCI TIMI flow grade 3.

“…Compared with TIMI flow grade 3 subgroup, postprocedural TIMI flow <3 in high-risk patients with STEMI treated by PPCI was associated with much higher enzymic infarction size, in-hospital and 1-year mortality, and lower predischarge ejection fraction, suggesting that efforts should be made to obtain early and optimal restoration of coronary flow. 38 However, in another trial, obtaining a better TIMI flow did not result either with better clinical outcomes or ejection fraction, nor did it result with lower mortality. 39 An association between bleeding and increased shortand long-term mortality has been well established.…”

“…Additionally, the lower effectiveness of PCI in CS patients evidenced by a lower proportion of angiographic success is of great clinical relevance. Several studies showed that patients without full restoration of flow in the infarct-related artery after PCI had significantly worse short- and long-term prognosis [32,33]. …”

“…The post-procedural TIMI flow grade <3 has also been reported to be a risk factor of an early and late mortality in AMI [9]. Mehta et al showed that unsuccessful PCI, defined by TIMI < 3 after PCI, in STEMI patients with cardiogenic shock was associated with significantly higher in-hospital mortality rates [10]. Ndrepepa et al demonstrated that post-procedural, but not the baseline TIMI flow grade, was an independent risk factor of 1-year mortality in patients with acute coronary syndromes treated with early PCI [11].…”
