In-hospital prognostic value of hemoglobin levels on admission in patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary angioplasty

Abstract: Lower concentrations of Hb on admission are associated with higher rates of in-hospital mortality, heart failure and major bleeding after p-PCI.

“…Kaplan-Meier event-free survival curves in the current study revealed that most of the thrombotic as well as bleeding events occurred early (within 30 days) following the index PCI (figure 1). This finding is in line with previous reports 6 8 9 15. In patients with coronary artery disease, anaemia may aggravate myocardial ischaemia and unveil significant coronary obstruction.…”

“…However, the results of the current study support the previous reports on the increased bleeding risk associated with anaemia in various patient groups undergoing PCI 8 9 19. Anaemia may be a marker and consequence of an underlying condition such as bleeding diathesis, occult gastrointestinal bleeding or malignancy that augments the bleeding risk.…”

“…13 It is well known that patients with an eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m 2 are more likely to have anemia and that prevalence and severity of anemia increase with declining renal function. 23 Our study demonstrated, however, that baseline hemoglobin level was an independent risk factor for AKI in all patients.…”

“…[8][9][10] Anemia is a common finding known to have a detrimental effect on the outcome of STEMI. [11][12][13] Previous studies have shown that anemia increases the risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients who undergo computed tomography and non-emergent percutaneous coronary intervention. [14][15][16] As far as the authors know there are no previous reports that have specifically addressed a selective subset of STEMI patients who undergo PPCI in whom preprocedural preparatory measures to reduce AKI are often underused because of the need for emergent reperfusion therapy.…”
