    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) during acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) represents a thrombotic milieu and is associated with delayed healing after stenting. The pro-healing combination sirolimus eluting endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) capture stents encourage early endothelialization after stenting and may be beneficial in the STEMI population. We aim to evaluate the clinical outcomes one year and beyond for patients with STEMI who received the combination sirolimus eluting EPC capture stents during primary PCI. METHODS/MATERIAL: All STEMI patients implanted with combination sirolimus eluting EPC capture stents during primary PCI from November 2013 to December 2016 were enrolled. The primary outcome was target lesion failure (TLF) at in-hospital, one-month, one-year and beyond one year. RESULTS: A total of 260 consecutive STEMI patients (283 lesions) were implanted with 313 combination sirolimus eluting EPC capture stents during primary PCI. Mean age was 56.1 ± 11.2 years and 88.8% were male. One in ten patients (10.9%) had cardiogenic shock on presentation, 7.3% needed mechanical ventilation and 7.7% had intra-aortic balloon pump inserted. A total of 97.9% of lesions achieve final TIMI 3 flow. Device success was seen in all patients. At extended follow up period (median 23.4 months), the clinical outcomes were TLF 8.8%, major adverse cardiovascular events 10.8%, cardiac mortality 4.2%, target vessel myocardial infarction 3.4%, target lesion revascularization 3.8%, and definite stent thrombosis 1.9%. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated acceptable clinical outcomes for an all-comers STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI with the use of combination sirolimus eluting EPC cell capture stents.
