Adjunctive Pharmacotheraphy

Vasodilators

  • Nitroglycerine a coronary vasodilator, increases the sub-endocardial perfusion secondary to enhancement of the coronary collateral flow. Hence, prophylactic intracoronary nitroglycerine may be used not only to reduce the risk of vasospasm and vasospastic reactions during PCI but also helps to assess the true vessel diameter.[1]

No Reflow Phenomenon during PCI

  • Selective intracoronary administration of a direct nitric oxide donor such as nitroprusside prior to PCI has also shown to be safe and effective in the treatment of no reflow phenomenon associated with PCI, and has shown to improve myocardial perfusion.[5][6][7]
  • A combination of adenosine and nitroprusside has shown to provide better improvement in the coronary flow in comparison to the use of intracoronary adenosine alone.[8]

Antiplatelet Therapy to Support PCI

Aspirin

  • In the M-HEART II trial (1995), 752 patients were randomized to receive aspirin (a nonselective thromboxane A2 synthesis inhibitor), sulotroban (a selective thromboxane A2 receptor blocker) or a placebo that was started 6 hours before and continued for 6 months after PCI, to evaluate the effects antiplatelet agents on the late clinical events and restenosis after PCI. At 6-month follow-up, aspirin was reported to significantly improve the clinical outcome in comparison to placebo (p=0.46) and sulotroban (p=0.006). The incidence of myocardial infarction was also significantly reduced with the administration of antithromboxane therapy from 5.7% in the placebo group to 1.2% in the aspirin group (p=0.030). However, the rate of restenosis did not significantly differ among the three groups: 39% in the aspirin group, 43% in the placebo group and 53% in the sulotroban group. Thus, the study concluded anti-thromboxane therapy is beneficial to reduce the ischemic complications related to PCI; in particular, aspirin if continued at least for 6 months after coronary angioplasty significantly reduced the incidence of MI and improved the overall clinical outcome.[9]
  • In the meta-analysis (2002) from Antiplatelet Trialists’ Collaboration, 287 randomized trials involving 135000 patients were randomized to receive either antiplatelet therapy or control and 77000 were randomized to different antiplatelet regimens, to determine the effects of antiplatelet therapy among patients at high risk of occlusive vascular events. The absolute reduction in the risk of having a serious vascular event was 36 (SE 5) per 1000 treated for two years among patients with previous myocardial infarction; 36 (SE 6) per 1000 treated for two years among those with previous stroke; 9 (SE 3) per 1000 treated for three weeks among those with acute stroke; and 22 (SE 3) per 1000 treated for two years among other high risk patients with separately significant results for those with stable angina (p=0.0005) and atrial fibrillation (p=0.01). In each of these high risk categories, the absolute benefits of aspirin substantially outweighed the absolute risks of major extracranial bleeding. Among patients at high risk of immediate coronary occlusion, addition of a intravenous glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor to aspirin for a short period, prevented a further 20 (SE 4) vascular events per 1000 (p=less than 0.0001) but caused 23 major extracranial bleeds per 1000. Thus, the study concluded aspirin at a dose of 75-150 mg/day, has shown reduced mortality and the incidence of vascular events among all high-risk patients including patients with previous or acute MI, unstable or stable angina.[10]

2016 ACC/AHA Guideline focused update on duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in Patients with coronary artery disease

Recommendations for duration of DAPT in patients with SIHD treated with PCI

"2. In patients with SIHD treated with DAPT after DES implantation who develop a high risk of bleeding (e.g., treatment with oral anticoagulant therapy), are at high risk of severe bleeding complication (e.g., major intracranial surgery), or develop significant overt bleeding, discontinuation of P2Y12 inhibitor therapy after 3 months may be reasonable (Level of Evidence: C-LD)"
"3. In patients with SIHD being treated with DAPT for an MI that occurred 1 to 3 years earlier who have tolerated DAPT without a bleeding complication and who are not at high bleeding risk (e.g., prior bleeding on DAPT, coagulopathy, oral anticoagulant use), further continuation of DAPT may be reasonable (Level of Evidence: A)"
Class III (No Benefit)
"1. In patients with SIHD without prior history of ACS, coronary stent implantation, or recent (within 12 months) CABG, treatment with DAPT is not beneficia (Level of Evidence: B-R)"

Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Compliance and Stent Thrombosis (DO NOT EDIT)[11][12]

Class III (Harm)

"1. PCI with coronary stenting (bare-metal stent or drug-eluting stent) should not be performed if the patient is not likely to be able to tolerate and comply with dual antiplatelet therapy for the appropriate duration of treatment based on the type of stent implanted.[11] [13][14][15][16](Level of Evidence: B)"

ACCF/AHA/SCAI 2011 Guideline for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (DO NOT EDIT)[12]

No-Reflow Pharmacological Therapies (DO NOT EDIT)[12]

"6. Patients should be counseled on the need for and risks of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) before placement of intra-coronary stents, especially drug eluting stents (DES), and alternative therapies should be pursued if patients are unwilling or unable to comply with the recommended duration of dual antiplatelet therapy.[13] (Level of Evidence: C)"
"7. The duration of P2Y12 receptor inhibitor therapy after stent implantation should generally be as follows:
a. In patients receiving a stent (bare metal stent (BMS) or drug eluting stent (DES)) during PCI for ACS, P2Y12 receptor inhibitor therapy should be given for at least 12 months. Options include clopidogrel 75 mg daily [43],prasugrel 10 mg daily [40], and ticagrelor 90 mg twice daily.[41] (Level of Evidence: B)
b. In patients receiving drug eluting stent (DES) for a non-ACS indication, clopidogrel 75 mg daily should be given for at least 12 months if patients are not at high risk of bleeding.[13][44][45] (Level of Evidence: B)
c. In patients receiving bare metal stent (BMS) for a non-ACS indication, clopidogrel should be given for a minimum of 1 month and ideally up to 12 months (unless the patient is at increased risk of bleeding; then it should be given for a minimum of 2 weeks).[13][46] (Level of Evidence: B)"
Class III (Harm)

"2. If the risk of morbidity from bleeding outweighs the anticipated benefit afforded by a recommended duration of P2Y12 receptor inhibitor therapy after stent implantation, earlier discontinuation (e.g.,less than 12 months) of P2Y12 receptor inhibitor therapy is reasonable. (Level of Evidence: C)"
Class IIb
"1. Continuation of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) beyond 12 months may be considered in patients undergoing drug eluting stent (DES)implantation.[40][41] (Level of Evidence: C)"
