Abstract

Abstract: Background: A decrease in the activities of daily living (ADL) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Although percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is known to prevent early mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), the relationship between ADL prior to myocardial infarction (MI), PCI implementation, and mortality in patients with AMI remains unknown. We investigated the impact of prehospital ADL on PCI implementation and on short- and long-term mortality in patients with AMI. Methods: We investigated the prehospital ADL in 1479 patients with AMI using data from the Yamagata AMI registry (period: 2015–2017). The patients were divided into three groups (preserved ADL, mildly impaired ADL, and severely impaired ADL) and their clinical characteristics were compared. Multivariate regression analysis was performed to elucidate the association of ADL prior to MI with the PCI implementation and mortality in patients with AMI. Results: Patients with impaired ADL were older, more likely to be female, less likely to have undergone PCI, and presented with higher acute mortality compared to those with preserved ADL. The proportion of patients with impaired ADL increased with age. Multivariate regression analysis showed that the lack of PCI implementation and prehospital ADL impairment were independent risk factors for acute death in patients with AMI after adjusting for confounding factors. Furthermore, univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that impaired ADL was associated with the PCI implementation. Cox proportional hazards analysis revealed that prehospital ADL impairment was an independent risk factor for long-term mortality in patients with AMI. Conclusions: Decreased levels of prehospital ADL were associated with lower PCI implementation and higher mortality in patients—especially older patients—with AMI. Graphical abstract: Unlabelled Image Highlights: The proportion of patients with impaired activities of daily living (ADL) increased with age. Impaired prehospital ADL was associated with percutaneous coronary intervention implementation in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Prehospital ADL was associated with higher mortality in patients with AMI.
