OP-90 Increased Serum Lipid Levels on Admission is Associated with Periprocedural Myocardial Injury Following Elective Percutaneous Coronary Intervention




Objectives


We aimed to evaluate the correlation between the pre-procedural serum lipid levels and the extent of periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).




Background


PMI is accepted as a predictor of in-hospital cardiac events and long term adverse outcomes following PCI.




Background


PMI is accepted as a predictor of in-hospital cardiac events and long term adverse outcomes following PCI.




Methods


The study group consisted of 195 patients (60.1±0.7 years old; 68 female and 127 males) undergoing elective PCI. Serum hscTnT concentrations were measured in blood samples obtained immediately before PCI and 12 hours after PCI. Serum total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein- cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglyceride (TG) levels were determined immediately before PCI.
