DRUG-COATED BALLOON
IN PRIMARY PCI FOR STEMI
Ho Hee Hwa
Background
Primary percutaneous coronary intervention
(PPCI) is the preferred reperfusion therapy for ST
elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)
Associated with higher reperfusion rates (vs lytic)
↓ rates of reinfarction, CVA and death
Started with primary angioplasty (POBA)
Associated with abrupt closure, recurrent ischaemia ; occlusion and
restenosis at 6 mths
PAMI-STENT(1999)
Routine implantation of bare metal stents associated with ↓ TVR
6 mth mortality rate was similar
CADILLAC STUDY (2002)
Routine implantation of bare metal stents associated with ↓ TVR
6 mth mortality rate was similar
Use of DES in PPCI for STEMI
Trials evaluating use of DES in AMI
(Typhoon, Passion, Sesami,etc)
Meta-analysis of 7 trials: similar mortality
benefit compared to BMS but ↓TLR in DES
Recent trial : Comfortable AMI (risk of MACE
at 1 year lower with the biodegradable
polymer BioMatrix stent

Primary PCI in STEMI
Is it feasible to use DEB during PPCI?
Issues with DEB in PPCI
Is DEB effective in a thrombus-laden
artery?
Can pt tolerate prolonged balloon
inflation?
Are we willing to accept a less than perfect
result?
DEB in STEMI
DEB-AMI (drug eluting balloon in acute ST-segment
elevation myocardial infarction) trial: a multicenter
randomized comparison of DEB + BMS versus BMS
versus DES in PPCI with 6-month angiographic,
intravascular, functional, and clinical outcomes.
X
In STEMI patients, DEB + BMS implantation failed to show
angiographic superiority to BMS only.
Angiographic results of DES were superior to both BMS and
DEB.
