P825Long-term Clinical Benefit of Atorvastatin Pretreatment Before Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients with STEMI: a Multi-Center Propensity Score-Matched Study

Abstract Aims We aim to investigate the effect of single dose of statin pretreatment prior to primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) on long-term clinical outcomes in patients with ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI). Methods Using data from China Acute myocardial Infarction (CAMI) registry, we compared the outcome in STEMI patients with vs without atorvastation pretreatment prior to primary PCI. The primary endpoint was the composite outcome of all-cause mortality, non-fatal MI or stroke events during follow-up. Propensity-score (PS) matching was used to assemble a cohort of patients with similar baseline characteristics. All patients were followed till 24 months since baseline. Results Of all 3772 patients who met our inclusion criteria at 108 hospitals in China, 3288 patients (1644 patients in each arm) were included in our PS-matched cohort. In the PS-match cohort, overall 144 (8.65%) and 113 (6.79%) patients in the control group and pretreatment group had the primary endpoint respectively (p=0.048). The estimated HRs were 0.78 (95% CI: 0.606–0.997, p=0.046) in the unadjusted model and 0.76 (95% CI: 0.596–0.984, p=0.032) in the adjusted model (Figure). The HRs were broadly similar for the pretreatment dosage of 40 mg or 80 mg (0.78 vs 0.77, p=0.75). The HRs were even stronger in patients with single-vessel only than multi-vessel coronary artery disease (0.31 vs 0.75, p=0.014). Conclusion Among Chinese patients with STEMI, atorvastatin pretreatment before primary PCI may have better long-term composite outcome of all-cause mortality, non-fatal MI, or stroke events.
