Özet

BackgroundRotational atherectomy (RA) may cause bradyarrhythmias and transitory atrioventricular block when performed in the right coronary artery (RCA) or a dominant circumflex (CX) coronary artery. However, there are no studies of a solution that can prevent coronary flow deterioration and bradycardia complications that may occur during RA. We aimed to create an alternative rota-flush solution to minimize the risk of bradycardia and complete atrioventricular block (AVB) that can occur during RA.Materials and methodsThe study comprised 60 patients who were randomly divided into two groups: 30 received rotaphylline (= 240 mg aminophylline, 10,000 U unfractionated heparin, and 2000 mcg nitroglycerin to 1000 mL saline), and 30 received the traditional rota-flush (= 10,000 U unfractionated heparin, 2000 mcg nitroglycerin, and 1000 mL saline). The incidence of bradycardia or high-grade AVB (HAVB) during RA, coronary slow-flow phenomenon or no-reflow phenomenon, and coronary spasm were the primary endpoints of the study. Procedure success and RA-related procedural complications were secondary endpoints.ResultsThe use of rotaphylline was an independent predictor of bradycardia and HAVB after accounting for all other factors (OR: 0.47, 95% CI: 0.24-0.79, p < 0.001). Lesion length (OR: 2.17, 95% CI: 1.24-3.04, p < 0.001), burr-to-artery ratio (OR: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.39-1.68, p < 0.001), and total run duration (OR: 0.79, 95% CI: 0.35-1.43, p < 0.001) were additional independent predictors.ConclusionBradycardia and the development of HAVB may be avoided by rotaphylline intracoronary infusion during RA applied to the RCA and dominant CX lesions. Multicenter studies including sizable patient populations should be conducted to validate the present findings.
