Abstract:Objective To analyze the effect of emergent and elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on left ventricular remodeling and left ventricular function in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods The databases including CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library and PubMed were searched for the literature about influence of emergent and selective PCI on ventricular remodeling and left ventricular function in AMI patients. The basic information such as the cases of emergency group and selective group, and the mean and standard deviation of research-related indicators was extracted and analyzed by Meta Stata12.0 software. Results Meta analysis of the effect of emergent and elective PCI on LVEDD in AMI patients showed the combined value of standardized mean difference (SMD) was -0.627 (95% CI: -0.767, -0.487) and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). As to the effect of emergent and elective PCI on LVEF in the AMI patients, the combined SMD value was 0.570 (95%CI: 0.414, 0.726) and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusions Emergent PCI is better than elective PCI in the improvement of LVEDD and LVEF of AMI patients, and it can inhibit left ventricular enlargement and improve left heart function and left ventricular systolic function.
