Influence of acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease on 3-year clinical outcomes in patients with AMI treated by contemporary PCI and optimal medical therapy; insights from J-MINUET study

Abstract Background The influence of acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) on long-term outcomes following AMI in the era of modern primary PCI with optimal-medical-therapy (OMT) is still in debate. Methods A total of 3,281 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were enrolled in the J-MINUET registry with primary PCI of 93.1% in STEMI Consecutive patients hospitalized within 48 h of onset of AMI at 28 Japanese medical institutions were enrolled in the J-MINUET study (UMIN000010037). AKI was defined as an increase in serum-creatinine ≥0.3mg/dL or ≥50% within-48h during-hospitalization. CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration-rate [eGFR]
