Abstract

Aims: Novel parameters that detect failed microvascular reperfusion might better identify the patients likely to benefit from adjunctive treatments during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We hypothesised that a novel invasive parameter, the thermodilution-derived temperature recovery time (TRT), would be associated with microvascular obstruction (MVO) and prognosis. Methods and results: TRT was derived and validated in two independent ST-elevation myocardial infarction populations and was measured immediately post-PCI. TRT was defined as the duration (seconds) from the nadir of the hyperaemic thermodilution curve to 20% from baseline body temperature. MVO extent (% left ventricular mass) was assessed by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging at 2-7 days. In the retrospective derivation cohort (n=271, mean age 60±12 years, 72% male), higher TRT was associated with more MVO (coefficient: 4.24 [95% CI: 2.26-6.22) p<0.001), independently of IMR>32, CFR≤2, hyperaemic Tmn>median, thermodilution waveform, age and ischaemic time. At 5-years, higher TRT was multivariably associated with all-cause death/ heart failure hospitalisation (OR: 4.14 [95% CI: 2.08-8.25] p<0.001) and major adverse cardiac events (OR: 4.05 [95% CI: 2.00-8.21] p<0.001). In the validation population (n=144, mean age 60±11 years, 80% male), the findings were confirmed prospectively. Conclusions: TRT represents a novel diagnostic advance for predicting MVO and prognosis.
