- Abstract
- The aim of this study was to compare clinical outcomes among early invasive (EI), deferred
invasive (DI), and conservative strategies in patients with acute non–ST-segment elevation
myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). High-risk patients
with NSTEMI are believed to fare better with an EI strategy, but the optimal treatment for
patients with NSTEMI and CKD is not known. In total 5,185 patients with acute NSTEMI
were enrolled from the Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry and followed for 1
year. Patients were divided into EI, DI, and conservative treatment groups and classified
into 4 stages using references from the National Kidney Foundation. The invasive EI and
DI groups were compared to the conservative groups, and the EI and DI groups were
compared according to each renal function stage. At 1-year follow-up, mortality rates in the
conservative group were significantly higher than in the invasive groups except for the
severe CKD group. The benefit of the EI over the DI strategy, although there were no
significant differences between the 2 groups, tended to decrease as renal function decreased. In
conclusion, in the management of NSTEMI, an invasive strategy decreased mortality compared
to a conservative strategy except for severe CKD. In the timing of an invasive strategy, the EI
strategy was observed to be superior to the DI strategy in patients with mild CKD; however,
this tendency reversed as renal function decreased. When patients with NSTEMI have severe
CKD, a conservative or DI strategy with prescription of cardioprotective medications and
prevention of further deterioration in renal function should be considered. © 2011 Elsevier
