Abstract
Aims
Although recreational drug use may induce ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI), its prevalence in patients hospitalized in intensive cardiac care units (ICCUs), as well as its short-term cardiovascular consequences, remains unknown. We aimed to assess the in-hospital prognosis of STEMI in patients with recreational drug use from the ADDICT-ICCU study.
Methods and Results
From 7-22 April 2021, recreational drug use was detected prospectively by a systematic urine multidrug test in all consecutive patients admitted for STEMI in 39 ICCUs across France. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) defined by death, resuscitated cardiac arrest, or cardiogenic shock. Among the 325 patients (age 62 ± 13 years, 79% men), 41 (12.6%) had a positive multidrug test (cannabis: 11.1%, opioids: 4.6%, cocaine: 1.2%, 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine: 0.6%). The prevalence increased to 34.0% in patients under 50 years of age. Recreational drug users were more frequently men (93% vs. 77%, p = 0.02), younger (50 ± 12 years vs. 63 ± 13 years, P < 0.001), and more active smokers (78% vs. 34%, P < 0.001). During hospitalization, 17 MACEs occurred (5.2%), including 6 deaths (1.8%), 10 cardiogenic shocks (3.1%), and 7 resuscitated cardiac arrests (2.2%). Major adverse cardiac events (17.1% vs. 3.5%, P < 0.001) and ventricular arrhythmia (9.8% vs. 1.4%, P = 0.01) were more frequent in recreational drug users. Use of recreational drugs was associated with more MACEs after adjustment for comorbidities (odds ratio = 13.1; 95% confidence interval: 3.4-54.6).
Conclusions
In patients with STEMI, recreational drug use is prevalent, especially in patients under 50 years of age, and is independently associated with an increase of MACEs with more ventricular arrhythmia.
