    Impact of Early Revascularization on Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Relation to Automatically Quantified Ischemia
    (Elsevier, 2021) Azadani, Peyman N.; Miller, Robert J.

    Objectives: Using a contemporary, multicenter international single-photon emission computed tomography myocardial perfusion imaging (SPECT-MPI) registry, this study characterized the potential major adverse cardiovascular event(s) (MACE) benefit of early revascularization based on automatic quantification of ischemia. Background: Prior single-center data reported an association between moderate to severe ischemia SPECT-MPI and reduced cardiac death with early revascularization. Methods: Consecutive patients from a multicenter, international registry who underwent 99mTc SPECT-MPI between 2009 and 2014 with solid-state scanners were included. Ischemia was quantified automatically as ischemic total perfusion deficit (TPD). Early revascularization was defined as within 90 days. The primary outcome was MACE (death, myocardial infarction, and unstable angina). A propensity score was developed to adjust for nonrandomization of revascularization; then, multivariable Cox modeling adjusted for propensity score and demographics was used to predict MACE. Results: In total, 19,088 patients were included, with a mean follow-up of 4.7 ± 1.6 years, during which MACE occurred in 1,836 (9.6%) patients. There was a significant interaction between ischemic TPD modeled as a continuous variable and early revascularization (interaction p value: 0.012). In this model, there was a trend toward reduced MACE in patients with >5.4% ischemic TPD and a significant association with reduced MACE in patients with >10.2% ischemic TPD. Conclusions: In this large, international, multicenter study reflecting contemporary cardiology practice, early revascularization of patients with >10.2% ischemia on SPECT-MPI, quantified automatically, was associated with reduced MACE.
