Trang 6TREATMENT:
TPM/PPM?
Coronary angiogram? When?
PCI/CABG before or after PPM?
Anti-platelet therapy? (Pretreatment? Clopidogrel or New drugs [Pasugrel/Ticagrelor] to be combined
with Aspirin?) for how long?
Trang 71 The optimal timing of ticagrelor or clopidogrel for patients
scheduled for an invasive strategy has not been adequately
investigated, no recommendation for or against pretreatment
2 Based on the ACCOAST results, pretreatment with prasugrel is
not recommended (TIMI major bleeds were significantly
increased in the pretreatment group at 7 days

Trang 10Recommendations for management of new bundle branch block and atrio-ventricular conduction disorders in ACS
Euro Intervention 2014
Prompt opening of the infarct vessel is often sufficient to
reverse new-onset ischaemic conduction disturbances This is
especially true for atrioventricular (AV) block in the setting of inferior infarctions
Temporary pacing is indicated for symptomatic
life-threatening bradycardia not resolving after successful
reperfusion and after medical treatment in the presence of
high-degree AV block and intraventricular conduction defects
Permanent pacing is considered for disturbances that persist
beyond the acute phase after the myocardial infarction

therapy for ACS patient undergoing PCI?
2 Should we do pre-treatment? (perhaps NO)

complete heart block?

Holter monitoring during the first week in 2866 patients
Repeated at 30 days in 1991 patients
Higher incidence of ventricular pauses in the 1st week, but not
at day 30; pauses were rarely associated with symptoms
No significant difference to the incidence of syncope or
pacemaker implantation
Trang 21Methods
7-day cECG recording initiated at the time of randomisation, which was within 24 h of symptom onset, and then repeated at 1 month after randomization during the convalescent phase
The principal safety endpoint was the incidence of ventricular
pauses lasting at least 3 seconds

More ventricular pauses ≥3 s in patients assigned to ticagrelor
during the first week (5.8% vs 3.6%; p=0.006)
At 1 month, pauses ≥3 s were less and similar between treatments
(2.1% vs 1.7%)

• Week 1: 70 patients
(3.2% ) had 1 pause, 20 (0.6%) had > 4 pauses
• 1 month: 9 patients
(0.05%) had 1 pause, 17 (0.8%) had > 4 pauses
Trang 25Study conclusions
1 More patients treated with ticagrelor compared
with clopidogrel had ventricular pauses, which were
predominantly asymptomatic, sinoatrial nodal in
origin, and nocturnal and occurred most frequently
in the acute phase of ACS
2 There were no differences between ticagrelor and
clopidogrel in the incidence of clinically reported
bradycardic adverse events, including syncope,
pacemaker placement, and cardiac arrest

2 Low dose beta blocker started during follow up
3 Well, so far, 3 months after the index event, no chest pain, no sign and symptoms of HF; ECG maintains normal sinus rhythm
Trang 27DAPT for how long?
A 1-year durationof DAPT with clopidogrel was associated with a 26.9% RRR of death, MI or stroke (8.6% vs 11.8%; 95% CI 3.9,
44.4; P= 0.02) vs 1-month DAPT in CREDO trial

Trang 30Conclusions
1 Early invasive strategy for high risk ACS
2 Revascularisation is often sufficient to reverse
new-onset ischaemic conduction disturbances
3 No clear benefit of pretreatment antiplatelet therapy
4 Treatment with ticagrelor (vs clopidogrel) significantly
reduced the rate MACCE without increasing the overall major bleeding or bradycardic adverse events
5 DAPT for 12 months after ACS Need careful assessment
of the ischaemic and bleeding risks if plan to prolong
DAPT duration
