Dementia: a barrier to receiving percutaneous coronary intervention for elderly patients with ST-elevated myocardial infarction

Abstract: ST-elevated myocardial infarction patients with dementia were much less likely to receive diagnostic cardiac catheterization, thereby limiting the possibility for receiving optimal care including PCI or CABG.

“…Moreover, Chanti‐Ketterl et al . reported from a further US cohort that patients 65 years of age or older with diagnosed dementia suffering STEMI were less likely to undergo PCI or CABG. As patients with dementia were significantly older and more often female within their study collective, this might confirm the potential underuse of an intervention especially in elderly female patients.…”

“…The study in Florida showed that several comorbidities were associated with use of cardiac catheterization. 19 This study also found that women, participants from lower socioeconomic strata, and those with select chronic conditions were less likely to receive a subsequent PCI after undergoing cardiac catheterization. 19 The current study also found that individuals with a history of heart failure, chronic kidney disease, or stroke were less likely to have undergone cardiac catheterization than those without these previously diagnosed comorbidities.…”

One potential explanation for the observed sex differences in the receipt of cardiac catheterization may stem from the lower likelihood of women experiencing classic symptoms of AMI such as chest pain.…”
