概要 BACKGROUND:The characteristics and clinical outcomes associated with sustained ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation (VT/VF) in Japanese acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients remain unknown.Methods and Results: Consecutive AMI patients (n=1,941) transferred to the Hirosaki University Hospital and treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) within 12 h of onset were retrospectively studied. The incidence of VT/VF during hospitalization was 8.3%, and 75% of cases occurred by the end of PCI. Independent predictors associated with VT/VF occurrence by the end of PCI and after PCI, respectively, were identified. Additionally, the differences between patients with VT and VF were examined, which revealed that the characteristics of patients and predictors for VT and VF were clearly different. Additionally, the QRS duration during VT was measured, which demonstrated the possible involvement of Purkinje fibers for VT in the acute phase of AMI. Of the patients with VT/VF, 12% required ECMO support due to refractory VT/VF despite intravenous antiarrhythmic agents such as β-blockers, amiodarone, and nifekalant. Among the patients discharged alive, 1,690 were followed up for a mean of 3.7 years. VT/VF occurrence during hospitalization did not affect the mid-term clinical outcomes even in patients with VT.CONCLUSIONS:The results clearly indicated that VT/VF is still a serious complications of AMI. We need to identify patients at high risk of developing VT/VF for careful observation and appropriate intervention.
