Co-relation of Monocyte Count in High vs. Low Thrombus Burden ST-Segment Elevated Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) Patients Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Copyright © 2022, Zeeshan et al..
Introduction Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients can lead to poor outcomes. Intra-coronary thrombus development due to atherosclerotic plaque rupture and coronary blood flow blockage causes STEMI. Intracranial thrombosis in STEMI patients is fatal. It was our goal to establish how often patients with STEMI underwent PPCI with a high thrombus burden versus a low thrombus burden and to compare the mean monocyte count between the two groups. Material and methods This cross-sectional study was conducted at KRL Hospital Islamabad from October 2021 to March 2022. At a 95% level of confidence, a 5% margin of error, and keeping a population size of 330, a sample size of 178 was obtained using the Raosoft sample size calculator (Raosoft, Inc., Seattle, WA). The non-probability consecutive sampling method was used. All patients with STEMI undergoing PPCI, aged between 18 and 80 years, and presenting within 24 hours of symptoms were included in our study. Pre-PPCI pharmacological treatment given within three hours of the onset of a heart attack to stabilize patients with myocardial infarction included aspirin, clopidogrel, and an intravenous bolus of 70 U/kg of body weight of un-fractionated heparin. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS version 26.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY). Fisher's exact test was employed, and a p-value of less than 0.05 was deemed statistically significant. The odds ratio and confidence interval were also calculated. Results A total of 178 participants were included in the research, out of which males were predominant with more than half of the study population. The mean age in patients having a low thrombus burden was 37.75 ± 6.39 years and that of patients with a high thrombus burden was mean 56.04 ± 7.98 years. In high thrombus burden patients, diabetes mellitus was found in 98.3%, hypertension in 120 patients (100%), obesity in (60%), and tobacco consumption in 120 patients (100%). The mean monocyte count in high burden patients was 70.27 ± 3.24, whereas it was 61.89 ± 5.71 in low burden patients. Only five patients had a Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) score of 5 while 34.8% of patients arrived in three to six hours and 12.9% arrived in less than three hours. Patients with a high monocyte count have 1.3 times more chances of developing the disease when the monocyte count was high (OR = 1.318, 95% CI = 1.140-1.524). Conclusion Patients with STEMI undergoing PPCI had a higher monocyte count upon admission, which was an independent clinical predictor of a high thrombus burden. Our findings suggest that admission monocyte count may be available for early risk stratification of high-thrombus burden in acute STEMI patients and might allow the optimization of anti-thrombotic therapy to improve the outcomes of PPCI.
