Overview
Prevention
Thrombectomy
This procedure is usually done to improve perfusion in STEMI patients before they undergo PCI. It can be done using either a manual thrombus aspiration device or a mechanical thrombectomy device, with the manual device having an edge over the mechanical device in some studies. A meta-analysis study proved that among patients with AMI treated with PCI, the use of manual thrombectomy device is associated with better epicardial and myocardial perfusion, less distal embolization and significant reduction in 30-day mortality.[1] Care should be exercised when aspirating in the proximal LAD or proximal circumflex locations so that clot does not go down the other adjacent artery.
Distal Embolic Protection Devices
Distal protection devices may be used in SVGs to prevent distal embolization of clot, debris, and vasoactive mediators. However, the Enhanced Myocardial Efficacy and Recovery by Aspiration of Liberated Debris (EMERALD) and the Protection Devices in PCI Treatment of Myocardial Infarction for Salvage of Endangered Myocardium (PROMISE) trials showed inconsistent results with regards to embolic protection devices in use for primary PCI of native vessels.
Direct Stenting
When intervening on high-risk lesions, limit the amount of instrumentation within the target vessel, which includes minimizing overaggressive balloon orstent expansion (i.e., without predilation). This has been with a significant reduction in microvascular injury.[2] In patients undergoing rotational atherectomy, shorter runs, slower speeds and smaller initial burr size with small step-wise increases in burr size should be employed to help prevent no reflow.
Systemic GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors
Systemic glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor antagonists are recommended as pre-treatment in patients presenting with unstable coronary syndromes undergoing PCI. The TITAN-TIMI 34 trial showed early initiation of eptifibatide in the emergency room prior to primary PCI improved myocardial perfusion without an increased risk of bleeding.
Use of Vasodilators
Intracoronary administration of adenosine, verapamil, streptokinase, or abciximab have been used during PCI to reduce reperfusion injury and improve myocardial perfusion. In addition, a cocktail of heparin, nitroglycerin and calcium channel blockers (CCB) should be infused simultaneously. Adding two arteriolar vasodilators, i.e. nicardipine and adenosine, to the flush "cocktail" may be helpful in further reducing incidence of no reflow, however traditionally the CCB used is verapamil.
Chronic Statin Therapy
In a study, intracoronary myocardial contrast echocardiography was performed in selected patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing PCI. It was observed that there was a reduction in the incidence of no-reflow in those pre-treated with statins.[3] Another study by Zhao JL et al in 2009 showed patients presenting with acute MI and hyperglycemia had lower incidence of no reflow if they were pretreated with HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors prior to angiography.
