目得:回顾过去20 years.MATERIAL AND METHODS:通过MEDLINE检索和研究文献回顾,确定了急性心肌梗死患者的治疗和生存趋势。从医疗保健融资管理局获得了其他数据,包括来自医疗保险索赔文件的数据(A部分)。30天死亡率的计算使用医疗保险数据和全国医院出院调查的病死率。使用已发表的荟萃分析确定治疗效果。如果已发表的研究报告在人群水平上使用急性心肌梗死治疗,则纳入研究。趋势的人口统计学特征的患者以及梗死的特点,药物使用,和血运重建recorded.RESULTS:使用急性治疗,是已知的,以提高心肌梗死患者的生存率显着增加,在过去的20年中,估计交配9.6%的减少(从27.0%到17.4%),在30天的死亡率。在调整治疗之间的潜在相互作用后,阿司匹林、β受体阻滞剂、血管紧张素转换酶(ACE)抑制剂和再灌注的使用增加可以解释1975年至1995年30天年龄和性别调整死亡率下降的71%。最有效的治疗方法是阿司匹林,其30天死亡率下降了34%,其次是溶栓(17%),直接血管成形术(10%),β受体阻滞剂(7%)和ACE抑制剂(3%)。如果其他治疗(如肝素或非主要血管成形术),其对死亡率的影响是不太确定的,包括,高达90%的30天死亡率的下降可以解释的变化,在treatment.CONCLUSIONS:在过去20年中,心肌梗死早期死亡率下降的主要原因似乎是增加使用有效的治疗。(C)2001年由Excerpta Medica,Inc.
PURPOSE: To review the trends in treatment and survival for patients with acute myocardial infarction over the last 20 years.MATERIAL AND METHODS: Studies were identified through MEDLINE searches and review of study bibliographies. Additional data were obtained from the Health Care Financing Administration including data from Medicare claims files (part A). Thirty-day mortality rates were calculated using Medicare data and case fatality rates from the National Hospital Discharge Survey. Published meta-analyses were used to determine treatment effects. Published studies were included if they reported the use of therapies for acute myocardial infarction at a population level. Trends in the demographic characteristics of the patients as well as infarct characteristics, medication use, and revascularization were recorded.RESULTS: The use of acute treatments that are known to improve survival among patients with myocardial infarction has increased markedly during the last 20 years, leading to an estimated mated 9.6% reduction (from 27.0% to 17.4%) in 30-day mortality. After adjusting for potential interactions between therapies, the increase in use of aspirin, beta-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, and reperfusion can explain 71% of the decrease in the 30-day age- and sex-adjusted mortality rate from 1975 to 1995. The greatest effect of a given therapy was that of aspirin, which accounted for 34% of the decrease in 30-day mortality, followed by thrombolysis (17%), primary angioplasty (10%), beta-blockers (7%), and ACE inhibitors (3%). If other treatments (such as heparin or nonprimary angioplasty), whose effects on mortality are less certain, are included, up to 90% of the decrease in 30-day mortality can be explained by changes in treatment.CONCLUSIONS: The primary reason for the decrease in early mortality from myocardial infarction during the last 20 years appears to be increased use of effective treatments.
