About

ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial infarction (STEMI) corresponding to acute occlusion of cornary artery is the most severe ischemic myocardial disease and a leading cause of mortality of heart failure worldwide. Although acute mortality from STEMI has decreased over the last decades, the prognosis remains pejorative and difficult to anticipate. The best management of STEMI patients depends of predictive factors of clinical prognosis and justifies an active research of these factors, in particular the mechanisms leading to deleterious left ventricular remodeling, myocardial inflammation, reperfusion injury including the no-reflow phenomenon which is a major determinant of heart failure. Cohorts of consecutive STEMI patients, with a comprehensive assessment of clinical, biological and imaging parameters are needed to offer the basis for new hypothese for research or interventions and to precisely evaluate the quality of care provided.

The main objective of this study is to identify new markers: clinical, biological and imaging, treatment response and prognosis after STEMI.

Secondary objectives of the CARAMBOLE cohort are to establish a comprehensive clinical databse, completed with biological samples and imaging data, that can be used in the following areas:

Descriptive epidemiology of STEMI and myocardial reperfusion
Evaluation of the clinical implications of the realization of a cardiac MRI at the acute phase of STEMI (regarding no-reflow, LVEF, intra cardiac thrombi)
Treatments observatory: safety, efficacy, indication of treatments provided in real life compared to the treatments recommended, adherence to treatments, costs
Quality of life, personal, familial, social and professional consequences of myocardial infarction
Research of new diagnostic and prognosis biomarkers
Research projects (e.g risk of developping cgnitive disorders in patients with STEMI as compared to the general population)

Participants will undergo:

a cardiac MRI at the acute phase of their STEMI (5 +/- 3 days) then at 1 year follow-up
biological samples including blood, urinary and feces samples, at the acute phase of their STEMI (from admission and up to 8 days) then at 1 year follow-up
questionnaire assessment regarding their quality of life, cognitive status,and socio-economic conditions at the acute phase and 1 year follow-up of their STEMI.

Full description

Myocardial infarction is one of the leading causes of morbi-mortality, causing 75% of cases of sudden death in adults over 35 years of age and more than half of chronic heart failure. Despite the progress made, based on French data from the CIRCUS study and the FAST-MI registry, all-cause mortality at 1 year remained high at around 8% and the rate of occurrence of composite events (death, heart failure, myocardial infarction, revascularization, stroke) estimated around 25%. ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is the most severe form of ischemic myocardial disease. The recommended treatment is the quickest possible unblocking of the coronary artery responsible for STEMI, by coronary angioplasty (treatment of choice if time limits are compatible) or, more rarely, thrombolysis. However, this revascularization causes undesirable collateral effects with tissue edema, intra-myocardial hemorrhages, microvascular obstruction and local inflammation which contribute to significantly aggravate myocardial damage. These "reperfusion injuries" increase the risk of Left Ventricular (LV) dysfunction. Thus, immediate mortality decreases but the incidence of heart failure following STEMI increases. Several other parameters associated with a poor prognosis remain to this day incompletely understood and treated: deleterious left ventricular remodeling (LVR), post-infarction inflammation, no-reflow.

Furthermore, performing a systematic MRI at the acute phase of STEMI will allow to assess the real prevalence of intra LV thrombi and to treat them before hospital discharge. Indeed, the prevalence of intraLV thrombi is estimated around 20% but only 16% are diagnosed during the stay in the Cardiology Intensive Care Unit (CICU) (low sensitivity of echocardiography, lack of availability of cardiac MRI) . These patients must be treated with anticoagulants to limit the embolic phenomena of intra LV thrombi, in particular strokes, but most patients therefore do not benefit from this treatment when leaving the hospital since MRI is not performed in the acute phase in most centers due to lack of availability.

The organization of prospective cohorts with well-documented biological and imaging collections, in particular the systematic use of myocardial MRI, and monitoring of events at 1 year, will thus make it possible to better understand the complex pathophysiology of these deleterious phenomena, their clinical consequences, to propose research hypotheses and ultimately, to developp innovative and personalized treatments.
