Abstract

Abstract : Objective . Patients with ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) have been treated with the delayed stent strategy to reduce the occurrence of postoperative no-reflow and improve the recovery of postoperative cardiac function. However, the effects of electrocardiac activity and autonomic nerve function after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) have been rarely reported. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of short-term heart rate variability (HRV) in patients with STEMI treated by immediate stent (IS) and delayed stent (DS) strategy. Methods . A total of 178 patients with STEMI were divided into 124 cases (69.66%) in the IS group and 54 cases (30.34%) in the DS group from July 2019 to September 2021. The mean heart rate, premature ventricular contraction (PVC), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVED), and HRV indexes were compared between the two groups. Results . In terms of cardiac electrical stability, the number of PVCs, the percentage of PVCs, and the number of paired PVCs in the DS group were lower than those in the IS group. In terms of HRV, high frequency (HF) and standard deviation of all NN (SDNN) intervals were higher in the patients with DS strategy than IS strategy. There were no significant differences in the LVED and LVEF between the two groups. Conclusion . Compared to the IS strategy, the DS strategy in pPCI in patients with STEMI has advantages in postoperative cardiac electrical stability and short-term cardiac autonomic nerve function, with no difference in postoperative short-term cardiac function.
