OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and safety of intracoronary hyperoxemic reperfusion after primary angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction (MI). BACKGROUND:Hyperoxemic therapy with aqueous oxygen (AO) attenuates reperfusion injury and preserves left ventricular (LV) function in experimental models of MI. METHODS: In a multi-center study of patients with acute MI undergoing primary angioplasty (PTCA), hyperoxemic blood (pO(2): 600 to 800 mm Hg) was infused into the infarct-related artery for 60 to 90 min after intervention. The primary end points were clinical, electrical and hemodynamic stability during hyperoxemic reperfusion and in-hospital major adverse cardiac events. Global and regional LV function was evaluated by serial echocardiography after PTCA, after AO infusion, at 24 h and at one and three months. RESULTS:Twenty-nine patients were enrolled (mean age: 58.9+/-12.6 years). Hyperoxemic reperfusion was performed successfully in all cases (mean infusion time: 80.8+/-18.2 min; mean coronary perfusate pO(2): 631+/-235 mm Hg). There were no adverse events during hyperoxemic reperfusion or the in-hospital period. Compared with baseline, a significant improvement in global wall motion score index was observed at 24 h (1.68+/-0.24 vs. 1.48+/-0.24, p < 0.001) with a trend toward an increase in ejection fraction (48.6+/-7.3% vs. 51.8+/-6.8%, p = 0.08). Progressive improvement in LV function was observed at one and three months, primarily due to recovery of infarct zone function. CONCLUSIONS:Intracoronary hyperoxemic reperfusion is safe and well tolerated after primary PTCA. These preliminary data support the need for a randomized controlled trial to determine if hyperoxemic reperfusion enhances myocardial salvage or improves long-term outcome.
