Potential Influential Factors of In-Hospital Myocardial Reinfarction in ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) Patients: Finding from the Improving Care for Cardiovascular Disease in China- (CCC-) Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) Project

Abstract

In this study, 39915 inpatients with a discharge diagnosis of STEMI from the CCC-ACS project phase I and II were included. The prevalence of the medical history, clinical complications on admission and treatment during hospitalization in the STEMI inpatients with and without in-hospital reinfarction was presented. The factors that were differentially distributed and of critical clinical significance (e.g., age, sex, heart rate, smoking, MI history, HF history, COPD history, stroke, hypertension, diabetes, PCI treatment, administration of DAPT, and statins) were entered into standard Cox regression model and competing risk model for potential influential factors of in-hospital reinfarction. Patients with a higher heart rate (OR 1.018; 95% CI 1.003 to 1.033) were more susceptible to in-hospital reinfarction. Myocardial infarction history (OR 2.840; 95% CI 1.160 to 6.955) was a risk factor of in-hospital reinfarction independent of hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidaemia.
