- One-year Mortality after an Acute Coronary Event and its Clinical Predictors: The ERICO Study(2015) SANTOS, Itamar Souza; GOULART, Alessandra Carvalho; BRANDAO, Rodrigo Martins; SANTOS, Rafael Caire de Oliveira; BITTENCOURT, Marcio Sommer; SITNIK, Debora; PEREIRA, Alexandre Costa; PASTORE, Carlos Alberto; SAMESIMA, Nelson; LOTUFO, Paulo Andrade; BENSENOR, Isabela MartinsBackground: Information about post-acute coronary syndrome (ACS) survival have been mostly short-term findings or based on specialized, cardiology referral centers. Objectives: To describe one-year case-fatality rates in the Strategy of Registry of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ERICO) cohort, and to study baseline characteristics as predictors. Methods: We analyzed data from 964 ERICO participants enrolled from February 2009 to December 2012. We assessed vital status by telephone contact and official death certificate searches. The cause of death was determined according to the official death certificates. We used log-rank tests to compare the probabilities of survival across subgroups. We built crude and adjusted (for age, sex and ACS subtype) Cox regression models to study if the ACS subtype or baseline characteristics were independent predictors of all-cause or cardiovascular mortality. Results: We identified 110 deaths in the cohort (case-fatality rate, 12.0%). Age [Hazard ratio (HR) = 2.04 per 10 year increase; 95% confidence interval (95% CI) = 1.75-2.38], non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (HR = 3.82; 95% CI = 2.21-6.60) or ST elevation myocardial infarction (HR = 2.59; 95% CI = 1.38-4.89) diagnoses, and diabetes (HR = 1.78; 95% CI = 1.20-2.63) were significant risk factors for all-cause mortality in the adjusted models. We found similar results for cardiovascular mortality. A previous coronary artery disease diagnosis was also an independent predictor of all-cause mortality (HR = 1.61; 95% CI = 1.04-2.50), but not for cardiovascular mortality. Conclusions: We found an overall one-year mortality rate of 12.0% in a sample of post-ACS patients in a community, non-specialized hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Age, ACS subtype, and diabetes were independent predictors of poor one-year survival for overall and cardiovascular-related causes.

Objectives: The main objective was to investigate if the unit of first contact influenced the frequency and time of aspirin treatment in the Strategy of Registry of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ERICO) study. Methods: We analyzed the pharmacological treatment time in 830 ERICO participants - 700 individuals for whom the hospital was the unit of first contact and 130 who initially sought primary care units. We built logistic regression models to study whether the unit of first contact was associated with a treatment time of less than three hours. Results: Individuals who went to primary care units received the first aspirin dose in those units in 75.6% of the cases. The remaining 24.4% received aspirin at the hospital. Despite this finding, individuals from primary care still had aspirin administered within three hours more frequently than those who went to the hospital (76.8% vs 52.6%; p<0.001 and 100% vs. 70.7%; p=0.001 for non ST-elevation ACS and ST-elevation myocardial infarction, respectively). In adjusted models, individuals coming from primary care were more likely to receive aspirin more quickly (odds ratio: 3.66; 95% confidence interval: 2.06-6.51). Conclusions: In our setting, individuals from primary care were more likely to receive aspirin earlier. Enhancing the ability of primary care units to provide early treatment and safe transportation may be beneficial in similar settings.
- ST-segment abnormalities are associated with long-term prognosis in non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes: The ERICO-ECG study(2016) BRANDAO, Rodrigo M.; SAMESIMA, Nelson; PASTORE, Carlos A.; STANIAK, Henrique L.; LOTUFO, Paulo A.; BENSENOR, Isabela M.; GOULART, Alessandra C.; SANTOS, Itamar S.Introduction: We aimed to identify whether ST-segment abnormalities, in the admission or during in-hospital stay, are associated with survival and/or new incident myocardial infarction (MI) in 623 non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome participants of the Strategy of Registry of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ERICO) study: Materials and methods: ERICO is conducted in a community-based hospital. ST-segment analysis was based on the Minnesota Code. We built Cox regression models to study whether ECG was an independent predictor for clinical outcomes. Results: Median follow-up was 3 years. We found higher risk of death due to MI in individuals with ST-segment abnormalities in the final ECG (adjusted hazard ratio: 2.68; 95% confidence interval: 1.14-6.28). Individuals with ST-segment abnormalities in any tracing had a non-significant trend toward a higher risk of fatal or new non-fatal MI (p = 0.088). Conclusions: ST-segment abnormalities after the initial tracing added long-term prognostic information.
