Abstract Objective In patients with cancer-associated venous thromboembolism (VTE), the risk of recurrence is similar after incidental and symptomatic events. It is unknown whether the same applies to incidental VTE not associated with cancer. Methods and Results We compared baseline characteristics, anticoagulation therapy, all-cause mortality, and VTE recurrence rates at 90 days between patients with incidental (n = 131; 52% without cancer) and symptomatic (n = 1,931) VTE included in the SWIss Venous ThromboEmbolism Registry (SWIVTER). After incidental VTE, 114 (87%) patients received anticoagulation therapy for at least 3 months. The mortality rate was 9.2% after incidental and 8.4% after symptomatic VTE for hazard ratio (HR) 1.10 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.49–2.50). After adjustment for competing risk of death, recurrence rate was 3.1 versus 2.8%, respectively, for sub-HR 1.07 (95% CI 0.39–2.93). These results were consistent among cancer (mortality: 15.9% vs. 12.6%; HR 1.32, 95% CI 0.67–2.59; recurrence: 4.8% vs. 4.7%; HR 1.02, 95% CI 0.30–3.42) and noncancer patients (mortality: 2.9% vs. 2.1%; HR 1.37, 95% CI 0.33–5.73; recurrence: 1.5% vs. 2.3%; HR 0.63, 95% CI 0.09–4.58). Patients with incidental VTE who received anticoagulation therapy for at least 3 months had lower mortality (4% vs. 41%) and recurrence rate (1% vs. 18%) compared with those who did not. Conclusion In SWIVTER, more than half of incidental VTE events occurred in noncancer patients who often received anticoagulation therapy. Among noncancer patients, early mortality and recurrence rates were similar after incidental versus symptomatic VTE. Our findings suggest that anticoagulation therapy for incidental VTE may be beneficial regardless of the presence of cancer.

Abstract Background Patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated by cardiogenic shock (CS) have a high mortality. It has been proposed that one component is a systemic inflammatory response to shock. Some of these patients even develop sepsis. Therefore,we analyzed a large cohort of patients with AMI and CS and sought to determine the incidence of sepsis and its impact on outcome. Methods The CULPRIT-SHOCKtrial and registry included 1009 patients with AMI complicated by CStreated with early PCI. In the trial 686 patients were randomized to immediate multivessel PCI or culprit lesion only PCI. In the current subanalysis patients were compared in those developing sepsis during the ICU phase to thosewithout sepsis. Results From the total of 1009 patients 103 (10%) developed sepsis. The baseline characteristics and 30-day outcomes are shown in the table. Sepsis (n=103) No sepsis (n=906) p-value Age (yrs) 68 68 0.8 Women 22.3% 25.3% 0.5 Diabetes 34.3% 29.7% 0.3 GFR <60 ml/min 5.8% 6.4% 0.8 CPR 54.4% 54.2% 0.8 Lactat >5 mmol/l 54.2% 50.8% 0.6 Mechanical support device 35.0% 29.1% 0.2 Bleeding 28.2% 18.8% 0.02 Need for renal replacement therapy 37.9% 9.6% <0.0001 Mortality 54.4% 45.7% 0.08 Conclusion About 10% of patients with AMI complicated by CSdevelop sepsis. Sepsis is associated with a higher incidence of the need for renal replacement therapy, bleeding and and a trend towards higher mortality. Therefore,further research is needed to improve outcome of these very high risk patients.

Hospital Cardiac Arrest

Our aim was to compare the outcomes of Impella with extracorporeal life support (ECLS) in patients with post-cardiac arrest cardiogenic shock (CS) complicating acute myocardial infarction (AMI). This was a retrospective study of patients resuscitated from out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) with post-cardiac arrest CS following AMI (May 2015 to May 2020). Patients were supported either with Impella 2.5/CP or ECLS. Outcomes were compared using propensity score-matched analysis to account for differences in baseline characteristics between groups. 159 patients were included (Impella, n = 105; ECLS, n = 54). Hospital and 12-month survival rates were comparable in the Impella and the ECLS groups (p = 0.16 and p = 0.3, respectively). After adjustment for baseline differences, both groups demonstrated comparable hospital and 12-month survival (p = 0.36 and p = 0.64, respectively). Impella patients had a significantly greater left ventricle ejection-fraction (LVEF) improvement at 96 h (p < 0.01 vs. p = 0.44 in ECLS) and significantly fewer device-associated complications than ECLS patients (15.2% versus 35.2%, p < 0.01 for relevant access site bleeding, 7.6% versus 20.4%, p = 0.04 for limb ischemia needing intervention). In subgroup analyses, Impella was associated with better survival in patients with lower-risk features (lactate < 8.6 mmol/L, time from collapse to return of spontaneous circulation < 28 min, vasoactive score < 46 and Horowitz index > 182). In conclusion, the use of Impella 2.5/CP or ECLS in post-cardiac arrest CS after AMI was associated with comparable adjusted hospital and 12-month survival. Impella patients had a greater LVEF improvement than ECLS patients. Device-related access-site complications occurred more frequently in patients with ECLS than Impella support.

Background: Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is an uncommon form of cardiomyopathy that affects young women at the end of pregnancy or in the first few months following delivery, and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. In selected patients with cardiogenic shock (CS), mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices improve outcomes. However, data comparing outcomes of patients with PPCM who develop CS and receive mechanical circulatory support (MCS) vs. those treated medically remains limited. Methods: Using the National Inpatient Database (NIS) we identified patients with PPCM who were treated for CS from 2012 to 2017. Primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Multivariate analysis models were adjusted for statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics between the groups. Results: A total of 4686 patients were admitted with a diagnosis of PPCM, of these 199 patients developed cardiogenic shock. Only 50 (25.1%) patients received MCS. Patients who received MCS were less likely to have a prior ICD in place (6% vs. 23%, p = 0.008), and were more likely to suffer from end-stage renal disease (6% vs. 0.67%, p = 0.020). There were no other major differences in baseline characteristics among the two groups. The incidence of ICD implant prior to discharge (4% vs. 7.4%, p = 0.243, OR 0.39) and cardiac arrest (16% vs. 7.4%, p = 0.173, OR 2.01) was not significantly different between the groups. There was no significant difference in in-hospital mortality between those who received MCS devices and those treated medically (22% vs 10.1%, p = 0.256, OR 1.73). LOS was longer for the MCS group (23.2% vs. 13.4 mean days, p = 0.001). Conclusions: The use of MCS in PPCM patients who developed cardiogenic shock appears to offer similar survival benefit compared to those treated medically, despite being associated with longer length of stay This finding may be related to the complexity and acuity level of patients receiving MCS compared to those treated medically.

Background There are few reports of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) due to end-stage heart failure (ESHF). We evaluated our institutional MCS strategy and compared the outcomes of INTERMACS 1 and 2 patients with CS due to ESHF. Methods Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data (November 2014 to July 2019) from a single centre. ESHF was defined by a diagnosis of HF prior to presentation with CS. Other causes of CS (eg: acute myocardial infarction) were excluded. We compared the clinical course, complications and 90-day survival of patients with CS due to ESHF in INTERMACS profile 1 and 2. Results We included 60 consecutive patients with CS due to ESHF Differences in baseline characteristics were consistent with the INTERMACS profiles. The duration of MCS was similar between INTERMACS 1 and 2 patients (14 (10–33) vs 15 (7–23) days, p = 0.439). There was no significant difference in the number of patients with complications that required intervention. Compared to INTERMACS 2, INTERMACS 1 patients had more organ dysfunction on support and significant lower 90-day survival (66% vs 34%, p = 0.016). Conclusion Our temporary MCS strategy, including earlier intervention in patients with CS due to ESHF at INTERMACS 2 was associated with less organ dysfunction and better 90-day survival compared to INTERMACS 1 patients.

Abstract Background Hyperlactatemia in intensive coronary care unit (ICCU) admitted patients who are critically ill must be considered to be related to tissue hypoxia/hypoperfusion. The routine measurement of lactate levels and its significance is still unclear in ICCU patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 35% without hypotension and/or hypoxia. Methods and Materials A prospective study was conducted for six months between January 2018 and June 2018 in our institute. Age ≥18 years who admitted to the ICCU with LVEF less than 35% were included. Results Total of 104 patients were included after met inclusion and exclusion criteria and consented to enrolment in the study. The most common age group involved was between 50 and 70 years (46.2% of the patients) with a mean age of 52.5 ± 16.3 years. Mean lactate levels in the study population were 1.9 mmol/L. Mortality was noted in five patients (4%) in whom there were mean lactate levels of 2.58 ± 0.37 mmol/L. In the present study population, the patients with elevated lactate levels had early mortality with a p-value of 0.005 (95% CI for difference = 0.604–1.596). The average duration of stay in ICCU in the study population was 3.3 ± 1.2 days, which was in correlation with elevated serum lactate levels. The mean pH of the study population was 7.2 ± 0.19, and mean pH in the mortality group was 7.06 ± 0.21, which was not statistically significant with those of the study population. Conclusions From our study, patients without signs of heart failure and cardiogenic shock had increased mortality when blood lactate level was over or equal to 2.5 mmol/L. So it may be used as an adjunct in identifying patients with a higher risk of mortality even without signs of heart failure, cardiogenic shock. In conclusion, according to our data, ICCU admitted patients with LVEF < 35%, blood lactate is a prognostic marker for early mortality.

Background: The concurrent use of therapeutic hypothermia (TH) following cardiac arrest and mechanical circulatory support (MCS) for cardiogenic shock is becoming increasingly common. Little is known however, about the combined use of TH and MCS for patients after ROSC following a cardiac arrest who remain in cardiogenic shock. Therefore we describe the experience with concomitant use of TH and MCS from a large academic tertiary care center in Boston. Methods: Baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes at hospital discharge were reported for patients undergoing TH following cardiac arrest who also received MCS for cardiogenic shock. MCS included Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) two percutaneous ventricular assist devices (Impella, and TandemHeart), and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Clinical outcomes included mortality as well as cerebral performance category (CPC) at hospital discharge. Results: There were a total of 14 patients who underwent concomitant TH and MCS following a cardiac arrest. Baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes are noted in the Figure. 9 patients underwent placement of IABP, 2 patients an Impella pump, 2 patients a TandemHeart, and 1 patient ECMO. All 14 cardiac arrests were due to cardiovascular etiologies; 9 of 14 had STEMI. 9 of 14 patients had an initial shockable rhythm. Mean age was 56 years (+/- 19), mean downtime was 35 minutes (+/- 24). All patients were vasopressor dependent. Bleeding events are noted in the table. 8 patients survived to hospital discharge, all with good neurologic outcome. These rates were comparable to the survival rates and neurologic outcomes among 82 patients who underwent TH post cardiac arrest (from cardiovascular etiologies) without concomitant MCS (Figure). Conclusion: Based on our experience from a large academic tertiary care center, concomitant use of TH and MCS is both safe and feasible with an encouraging rate of cardiac and neurologic recovery.
