Facilitated PCIFacilitated PCI

a strategy of planned immediate PCI after administration of an initial pharmacological regimen intended to improve coronary patency before the procedure. These regimens have included high-dose heparin, platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa inhibitors, full-dose or reduced dose fibrinolytic therapy, and the combination of a GP IIb/IIIa inhibitor with a reduced-dose fibrinolytic agent (e.g., fibrinolytic dose typically reduced 50%).

RationalRational

Primary PCI appears superior to thrombolysis but not all patients have the required prompt (DTB < 90 minutes) access to the cath lab.

Treatment delays are common and reduce the true benefit of PCI

TIMI 3 flow prior to PCI is an important predictor of success and clinical outcome

ConclusionsConclusions

Large randomized trials of facilitated PCI (fibrinolytics+IIb/IIIa agents) have failed to show a positive benefit and but recent data have at least shown no harm

The latest ACC/AHA (2007) consider facilitated PCI as a class IIb indication but with the more recent data from ASSENT-4 and FINESSE did not change substantially

New Class III recommendation is out of sync with Transfer-MI data and network data (which both AHA and ACCF endorse) and fails to provide an option for patients without access to Primary PCI within 90 minutes

Page 44: Thrombolysis assisted PCI Bonnie H. Weiner MD MSEC MBA FSCAI Past President SCAI Professor of Medicine Director Interventional Cardiology Research St Vincent.

Facilitated PCI should not be first line therapy if primary PCI is available within 90 minutes

It is a reasonable alternative however when it is not possible to provide primary PCI because of:

•Distances•Transfer times•Resources•Cost

If done correctly mortality may approach that seen for primary PCI and will provide more patients with reperfusion therapy
