Objectives: We aimed to identify the predictors of angiographically visible distal embolization (AVDE) during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (p-PCI) as well as to assess its impact on short- and long-term clinical outcomes in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Study design: We retrospectively enrolled 2007 patients with STEMI who underwent p-PCI. We assessed the clinical and angiographic characteristics of patients in order to identify the predictors of AVDE and compared the outcomes of patients with and without AVDE during p-PCI. Results: Distal embolization developed in 135 (6.7%) patients. Age (for each 10- year increase, Odds Ratio (OR) 1.34, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) 1.16-1.52, p15 mm (OR 1.67, 95% CI 1.09-2.58, p=0.019), and reference vessel diameter >3.5 mm (OR 5.08, 95% CI 3.32-7.65, p |
