Clinical Case Presentation: Martin C. Burke, DO

This document presents a clinical case of a 70-year-old male who suffered cardiac arrest at home and was found to have an anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Upon arrival at the hospital, he underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention to open the blocked left anterior descending artery. Imaging also revealed chronic total occlusion of the right coronary artery and total occlusion of the abdominal aorta. The patient was treated with intravascular cooling, an intra-aortic balloon pump, and direct stenting of the left anterior descending artery. He was stabilized in the cardiac care unit. The document discusses management of this patient's advanced peripheral vascular disease and risk of sudden cardiac death going forward.

Clinical Case Presentation

Martin C. Burke, DO
Professor of Medicine
University of Chicago Medical Center
Objectives

Detail available invasive reperfusion and hemodynamic support


therapies
Explore key issues relevant to severe chronic peripheral artery
disease
Review cardiac imaging, peri-infarct electrical monitoring and
electrophysiology considerations in the critically ill cardiac patient
Discuss timing and type of cardiac arrest prevention management
devices in the patient with severe atherosclerotic disease.

* Investigational (non-FDA approved) technologies may be discussed


during this presentation.
Case study: Clinical presentation

CC / HPI:
70 year old male with HTN, smoking, DM, PAD but no
R
known CAD, develops CP at home, arrests in the field,
receives bystander CPR and defibrillation for VF. EMS
arrives. M
Initial 12 lead ECG in field comes back with anterior ST
elevations and through mission lifeline is transmitted to
ER, read and the cath lab is activated.
Patient is transported to ER in somnolent state intubated
with return of spontaneous circulation. Interventional
team meets him in the ER.
Case study: ECG in the Field

Post-defibrillation 12-lead ECG


R

Sinus tachycardia with premature complexes, bifascicular block (RBBB+LAFB),


antero-septal ST elevations
Case study: Physical examination

Physical Examination:
Vitals: T: Afeb P: 109, irregular BP: 85/48 RR: 14 (vent) 79 kg R
Gen: elderly white male, intubated, somnolent

M
HEENT: PERRL, NCAT, MMM
Neck: 1+ carotid upstrokes, bilateral carotid bruits, JVD12 cm
Resp: coarse BS
CV: RRR, NL S1/S2, no S3 or S4 gallops
Abd: Bowel sounds absent, no organomegaly
Ext: No edema, warm, but with relative bilateral atrophy
Pulses: 1+ left femoral, No right femoral pulse 1+ PT, absent DP
bilaterally
Case study: Management

Initial Management:
R
The patient is immediately given ASA 325
mg via NGT and heparinized (60 u/kg
bolus) M
All labs are pending
Cardiac cath lab has already been
activated for STEMI
Cardiac catheterization

M
Cardiac catheterization

M
Cardiac catheterization

M
Primary PCI

Proximal to mid LAD covered with a single DES


0% residual stenosis with TIMI III in LAD but sluggish flow
into septal perforators and distal diagonal branches
R

M
LV Angiography

LVEDP = 22 mm Hg, LVEF 32% with severe ant-lat/apical HK


Due to ongoing hypotension / pressor needs, IABP ???
R

Therapeutic hypothermia considered


Peripheral Angiography

M
Case study: Clinical management

Course:
Cloud of thrombus in the LAD, CTO RCA with R
collaterals. LAD undergoes thrombecty and
stented with excellent angiographic results.
M
Intravascular cooling is initiated with the Zoll
Thermogard catheter.
Given dopamine requirement and hypotension,
abdominal aorta is imaged to put in an IABP and
found to be totally occluded with SMA collaterals
to the CFAs bilaterally.
To treat or not to treat: When is the
Question!!! Learning from ERASE and
other recent studies

CASE UPDATE
Case study: Laboratory data

Initial Laboratory Data (drawn in ED):


CBC: WNL
R
Chem-7: WNL
BUN / Cre: 31 / 1.9 M
Est GFR: 43 cc/min
CK / CK-MB: 200 / 6.8 (ULN 5%)
cTnT: 0.16 (ULN 0.03)
Case study: CXR in CCU

Initial CXR (AP portable film)


R
ETT in place
Increased lung M
markings c/w
pulmonary
edema
RUL consolidation
CCU course

In the CCU, the patient responds to direct PCI


Cooling is removed at 24 hours. R
Mentation and urine output improves.
Pressor requirement is removed gradually. M
Patient is supported and begins the medical
phase of therapy including beta blocker therapy,
ACEI, DAPT and statin.
TTE reveals EF 25-30% with anterior AK, mild MR
and trivial pericardial effusion
Our key issues for review

How should the advanced peripheral vascular


disease be managed, acutely?
How should the advanced peripheral vascular
disease be managed, chronically?
Who do we consult, Surgery or
Interventional minimal invasive vs. open?
Given his cardiac arrest presentation, is there
a difference in managing this patients risk of
sudden death based on ejection fraction?
Given the majority of patients post MI or PCI
have preserved EF, what are methods of ECG
ambulatory monitoring being developed?
Innovative Heart Rhythm Monitors
for Patient Comfort: Ziopatch to
iRhythm
