[Influence of intracoronary administration of anisodamine on no-reflow, ventricular function and systolic synchrony in acute myocardial infarction patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention].

Abstract

OBJECTIVE:

To evaluate the influence of intracoronary administration of anisodamine on myocardial blush grade (MBG) and left ventricular regional and global systolic function and synchrony in the acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients with no-reflow phenomenon post percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

METHODS:

Forty-seven AMI patients who underwent PCI within 12 hours of onset and MBG was 0 - 1 were randomized to receive standard therapy [group B, n = 23, 18 males, mean age (62.72 +/- 11.48) years] or standard therapy plus intracoronary administration of anisodamine [200 microg/ml, group A, n = 24, 18 males, mean age (64.23 +/- 12.27) years]. The left ventriculography (LVG) was performed immediately and 6 months after PCI to measure the ventricular volume, LVEDP and wall motion score (WMS). Equilibrium radionuclide angiography (ERNA) was performed 1 week and 6 months after PCI to determine the parameters of left ventricular regional, global systolic function and systolic synchrony. Incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) during the follow-up was analyzed.

RESULTS:

Anisodamine [(2530 +/- 340) microg/person)] was well tolerated by patients. The MBG remained unchanged in group B and significantly increased from grade 0.74 +/- 0.32 to grade 2.33 +/- 0.28 10 min after anisodamine injection in group B. Six months post PCI, LVESVI [(40.53 +/- 8.12) ml/m(2) vs. (50.32 +/- 8.26) ml/m(2)], LVEDVI [(80.13 +/- 9.74) ml/m(2) vs. (87.17 +/- 10.25) ml/m(2)], WMS [(8.24 +/- 1.31) vs. (10.23 +/- 1.82)] and LVEDP [(13.36 +/- 4.21) vs. (16.38 +/- 3.21) mm Hg, 1 mm Hg = 0.133 kPa] were significantly lower in group A compared with that in group B (all P < 0.05) while LVEF [(44.02 +/- 5.86)% vs. (38.52 +/- 5.18)%], PER [(1.86 +/- 0.09) EDV/s vs. (1.61 +/- 0.09) EDV/s] and PFR [(2.19 +/- 0.32) EDV/s vs. (1.78 +/- 0.17) EDV/s] measured by ERNA were significantly increased in group A compared with that in group B (all P < 0.05). (2) LrEF(2)-LrEF(8) in group A were higher by 13.96%, 25.02%, 30.36%, 22.86%, 27.67%, 22.07% and 18.71% respectively compared with that in group B. (3) Phase analysis showed that the left ventricular systolic synchrony parameters PS [(46.04 +/- 8.93) degrees vs. (53.19 +/- 162) degrees ], FWHM [(23.02 +/- 6.27) degrees vs. (25.02 +/- 5.31) degrees ] and PSD [(7.92 +/- 4.12) degrees vs. (11.76 +/- 4.11) degrees ] were also significantly lower in group A than that in group B (all P < 0.05). (4) During the 6 months of follow-up, the incidence of MACE in group A was significantly lower than that in group B (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSION:

Intracoronary administration of anisodamine is safe and could partly attenuate the no-reflow phenomenon, improve the left ventricular systolic function and synchrony and reduce the incidence of MACE in patients with no-reflow phenomenon post AMI-PCI.
