Popis: | Aims: Hypothermia reduces reperfusion injury and infarct size in animal models of acute myocardial infarction if started before reperfusion. Human studies have not confirmed benefit, probably due to insufficient myocardial cooling and adverse systemic effects. This study sought to assess the safety and feasibility of a novel method for selective, sensor-monitored intracoronary hypothermia. Methods and results: Ten patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) were included. Saline at room temperature was administered distal to the culprit lesion through an inflated overthe- wire balloon (OTWB) in order to cool the endangered myocardium for 10 minutes (occlusion phase). Next, the OTWB was deflated and cooling continued with saline at 4°C for another 10 minutes (reperfusion phase). A sensor-tipped temperature wire in the distal coronary artery allowed titration of the infusion rate to achieve the desired coronary temperature (6°C below body temperature). Target coronary temperature was achieved within 27 seconds (median; IQR 21-46). Except for two patients with inferior wall infarction experiencing transient conduction disturbances, no side effects occurred. Systemic temperature remained unchanged. Finally, PPCI was performed as per routine. Conclusions: Selective hypothermia of the infarct area by intracoronary infusion of saline provides a novel method to reduce coronary temperature quickly and guarantee local myocardial hypothermia. In anterior wall myocardial infarctions, the protocol appeared safe, without serious haemodynamic or systemic side effects. In inferior wall myocardial infarctions, transient conduction abnormalities of short duration occurred. Potentially, selective intracoronary delivery of hypothermia could attenuate reperfusion injury caused by traditional PPCI. |
