Popis: Purpose: The aim was to evaluate prognostic value of beta-blocker (BB) administration in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) patients in the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) era. Methods and Results: The BleeMACS project is a multicenter, observational, retrospective registry enrolling patients with ACS worldwide in 15 hospitals. Patients discharged with BB therapy were compared to those discharged without a BB before and after propensity score with matching. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality at 1 year. Secondary endpoints included in-hospital reinfarction, in-hospital heart failure, 1-year myocardial infarction, 1-year bleeding and 1-year composite of death and recurrent myocardial infarction. After matching, 2935 patients for each group were enrolled. The primary endpoint of 1-year death was significantly lower in the group on BB therapy (4.5 vs 7%, p < 0.05), while only a trend was noted for recurrent acute myocardial infarction (4.5 vs 4.9%, p = 0.54). These results were consistent for patients older than 80 years of age, for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients, and for those discharged with complete versus incomplete revascularization, but not for non-STEMI/unstable angina patients. Conclusions: BB therapy was related to 1-year lower risk of all-cause mortality, independently from completeness of revascularization, admission diagnosis, age and ejection fraction. Randomized controlled trials for patients treated with PCI for ACS should be performed.
