Early rapid platelet inhibition with abciximab before primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is suggested as beneficial. In previous studies on early abciximab administration clopidogrel was administered in cathlab in low loading dose. We investigated the role of early abciximab administration on top of early clopidogrel 600 mg loading dose in patients with STEMI treated with PPCI. A total of 73 non-shock STEMI < 6 h patients admitted to remote hospitals with anticipated delay to PPCI < 90 min were randomly assigned to three study groups--24 pts received abciximab before transfer to cathlab (early = group EA), 27 in cathlab during PPCI (late = group LA) and in 22 abciximab administration was left to operator's discretion during PPCI (selective = SA; given in 22.7% of patients). All patients received clopidogrel (600 mg), aspirin and heparin (70 U/kg) before transfer to cathlab. Angiography revealed more frequent infarct-related artery patency (TIMI 2 + 3: EA vs LA vs SA: 45.8 vs 18.5 vs 13.6%, P = 0.024), better myocardial tissue perfusion (MBG 2 + 3: EA vs LA vs SA: 45.8 vs 14.8 vs 13.6%, P = 0.02) in EA group in baseline angiography. There was no difference in these angiographic parameters and ECG ST-segment resolution after PPCI. In multivariate analysis early abciximab administration was an independent predictor of infarct-related artery patency in baseline angiography (OR 6.5; 95% CI 1.83-23.1; P = 0.004). Early abciximab administration before transfer for PPCI in patients with STEMI pretreated with 600 mg of clopidogrel results in more frequent infarct-related artery patency and better myocardial tissue perfusion before PPCI. |
