BACKGROUND: Arrhythmias are considered one of the major causes of death in ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), particularly in the early in-hospital phase. Pre-infarction angina (PIA) has been suggested to have a protective role.
OBJECTIVES: To study the difference in acute electrocardiographic findings between STEMI patients with and without PIA and to assess the in-hospital arrhythmias in both groups.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: We prospectively enrolled 238 consecutive patients with STEMI. Patients were divided into two groups: those with or without PIA. ECG data recorded and analyzed included ST-segment resolution (STR) at 90 min, corrected QT interval (QTc) and dispersion (QTD), T-peak-to-T-end interval (Tp-Te), and dispersion and Tp-Te/QT ratio. In-hospital ventricular arrhythmias encountered in both groups were recorded. Predictors of in-hospital arrhythmias were assessed among different clinical and electrocardiographic parameters.
RESULTS: Of the 238 patients included, 42 (17%) had PIA and 196 (83%) had no PIA. Patients with PIA had higher rates of STR (p < 0.0001), while patients with no PIA had higher values of QTc (p = 0.006), QTD (p = 0.001), Tp-Te interval (p = 0.001), Tp-Te dispersion (p < 0.0001), and Tp-Te/QT ratio (p = 0.01) compared to those with angina preceding their incident infarction (PIA). This was reflected into significantly higher rates of in-hospital arrhythmias among patients with no PIA (20% vs. 7%, p = 0.04). Furthermore, longer Tp-Te interval and higher Tp-Te/QT ratio independently predicted in-hospital ventricular arrhythmias.
CONCLUSION: Pre-infarction angina patients had better electrocardiographic measures of repolarization dispersion and encountered significantly less arrhythmic events compared to patients who did not experience PIA.
