ABSTRACT

AIMSAlthough some recent guidelines recommend an early invasive strategy for non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTEACS), several studies have failed to identify any benefit for very early intervention for NSTEACS. The no-reflow phenomenon may inhibit the expected benefit from very early recanalization for NSTEACS subjects. The aim of this study was to investigate whether optical coherence tomography (OCT) could predict no-reflow in patients with NSTEACS.

METHODS AND RESULTS - This study comprised 83 consecutive patients with NSTEACS who underwent OCT and successful emergent primary stenting. On the basis of post-stent TIMI flow, patients were divided into two groups: no-reflow group (n = 14) and reflow group (n = 69). Thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) was defined as a plaque presenting lipid content for >90 degrees , and with thinnest part of the fibrous cap measuring <70 microm. Thin-cap fibroatheroma were more frequently observed in the no-reflow group than in the reflow group (50% vs. 16%, P = 0.005). The frequency of the no-reflow phenomenon increases according to the size of the lipid arc in the culprit plaque. Final TIMI blush grade also deteriorated according to the increase in the lipid arc. A multivariable logistic regression model revealed that lipid arc alone was an independent predictor of no-reflow (odds ratio 1.018; CI 1.004-1.033; P = 0.01).

CONCLUSION - Optical coherence tomography can predict no-reflow after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in NSTEACS. The lipid contents of a culprit plaque may play a key role in damage to the microcirculation after PCI for NSTEACS. From our results, it is found that OCT is useful tool for stratifying risk for PCI for NSTEACS.
