Article Synopsis
  • A study analyzed angiographic characteristics of patients with COVID-19 and STEMI using data from the North American COVID-19 Myocardial Infarction Registry, focusing on various angiographic outcomes.
  • Among 234 patients, 74% had one major blockage (culprit lesion), with significant cases of multivessel disease and stent thrombosis, complicating treatments.
  • One-third of the patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) had unsuccessful outcomes linked to severe thrombus and poor blood flow, leading to higher in-hospital mortality rates for these cases.

Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has impacted many aspects of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) care, including timely access to primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI).

Objectives: The goal of the NACMI (North American COVID-19 and STEMI) registry is to describe demographic characteristics, management strategies, and outcomes of COVID-19 patients with STEMI.

Methods: A prospective, ongoing observational registry was created under the guidance of 3 cardiology societies.
