Relationship of Frontal QRS-T Angle with Coronary Flow Grade and Adverse Events Before Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients with Non-ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Öz:
Objective: Electrocardiography is used in the initial risk assessment of patients with non-ST- elevation myocardial infarction. The frontal QRS-T angle is an electrocardiography parameter that may be affected by the alterations in the coronary blood flow. This study aimed to explore the relationship of the frontal QRS-T angle with coronary flow grade and adverse events in non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients. Methods: A total of 191 non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients were divided into 2 groups based on the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow level on coronary angiography before revascularization, namely TIMI 0/1 and TIMI 2/3. The frontal QRS-T angle obtained before revascularization was compared between the groups and its relationship with adverse events was examined. In-hospital all-cause mortality, repeat target lesion revascular- ization, new-onset heart failure, ventricular arrhythmias, and atrial fibrillation were defined as adverse events. Results: Frontal QRS-T angle was wider in the patients with TIMI 0/1 flow compared to the patients with TIMI 2/3 flow (P < 0.001). The frontal QRS-T angle was determined to be a predictor of TIMI flow grade 0/1 before revascularization in patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (odds ratio: 1.51; 95% CI: 1.30-1.75; P < 0.001). The frontal QRS-T angle was a predictor of the adverse events during hospitalization in the patients with non-ST- elevation myocardial infarction (odds ratio: 1.11; 95% CI: 1.04-1.19; P = 0.002). The cut-off values of the frontal QRS-T angle for TIMI flow grade and adverse events were determined to be 73.5°, based on receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Conclusion: Increased frontal QRS-T angle may be a useful electrocardiography parameter for determining TIMI flow grade and the need for an early invasive strategy in patients with non- ST-elevation myocardial infarction.

ST Segment Yükselmesiz Miyokard Enfarktüslü Hastalarda Perkütan Koroner Girişim Öncesi Frontal QRS-T Açısının Koroner Akım Derecesi ve Advers Olaylarla Ilişkisi

Öz:
Giriş: Elektrokardiyografi (EKG), ST segment yükselmesiz miyokard enfarktüslü (STYzME) has- taların ilk risk değerlendirmesinde kullanılmaktadır. Frontal QRS-T [F(QRS-T)] açısı koroner kan akımındaki değişiklikten etkilenebilecek bir EKG belirtecidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, STYzME hastalarında F(QRS-T) açısının koroner akış derecesi ve kötü klinik sonlanımlarla ilişkisini araştırmaktı. Yöntemler: Toplam 191 STYzME hastası, revaskülarizasyon öncesi koroner anjiyografide (KAG) Thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) akış derecesine göre TIMI 0/1 ve TIMI 2/3 olmak üzere iki gruba ayrıldı. Revaskülarizasyon öncesi elde edilen F(QRS-T) açısı gruplar arasında kar- şılaştırıldı ve kötü klinik sonlanımlarla ilişkisi incelendi. Hastane içi tüm nedenli mortalite, tek- rarlanan hedef lezyon revaskülarizasyonu, yeni başlangıçlı kalp yetmezliği, ventriküler aritmiler ve atriyal fibrilasyon kötü klinik sonlanımlar olarak tanımlandı. Bulgular: F(QRS-T) açısı TIMI 0/1 akışı olan hastalarda TIMI 2/3 akışı olan hastalara göre daha genişti (P < 0,001). F(QRS-T) açısı, STYzME'li hastalarda revaskülarizasyon öncesi TIMI akış derecesi 0/1'in göstergesi olduğu belirlendi (olasılık oranı [OO]: 1,51; %95 güven aralığı [GA]:1,30–1,75; P < 0,001). F(QRS-T) açısı, STYzME'li hastalarda hastanede yatış sırasındaki kötü klinik sonlanımların göstergesiydi (OO: 1,11; %95 GA: 1,04–1,19; P = 0,002). ROC analizine göre TIMI akış derecesi ve kötü klinik sonlanımlar için F(QRS-T) açısının kesme seviyeleri 73,5° olarak belirlendi. Sonuç: STYzME hastalarda artmış F(QRS-T) açısı TIMI akış derecesini ve erken dönem invaziv strateji ihtiyacını belirlemek için yararlı bir EKG para- metresi olabilir.
