Background-Small myocardial infarctions after percutaneous coronary intervention have been associated with higher risk of cardiac events during follow-up. Observational studies have suggested that statins may lower the risk of procedural myocardial injury. The aim of our study was to confirm this hypothesis in a randomized study. Methods and Results-One hundred fifty-three patients with chronic stable angina without previous statin treatment were enrolled in the study. Patients scheduled for elective coronary intervention were randomized to atorvastatin (40 mg/d, n=76) or placebo (n=77) 7 days before the procedure. Creatine kinase-MB, troponin I, and myoglobin levels were measured at baseline and at 8 and 24 hours after the procedure. Detection of markers of myocardial injury above the upper normal limit was significantly lower in the statin group versus the placebo group: 12% versus 35% for creatine kinase-MB (P=0.001), 20% versus 48% for troponin I (P=0.0004), and 22% versus 51% for myoglobin (P=0.0005). Myocardial infarction by creatine kinase-MB determination was detected after coronary intervention in 5% of patients in the statin group and in 18% of those in the placebo group (P=0.025). Postprocedural peak levels of creatine kinase-MB (2.9+/-3 versus 7.5+/-18 ng/mL, P=0.007), troponin I (0.09+/-0.2 versus 0.47+/-1.3 ng/mL, P=0.0008), and myoglobin (58+/-36 versus 81+/-49 ng/mL, P=0.0002) were also significantly lower in the statin than in the placebo group. Conclusions-Pretreatment with atorvastatin 40 mg/d for 7 days significantly reduces procedural myocardial injury in elective coronary intervention. These results may influence practice patterns with regard to adjuvant pharmacological therapy before percutaneous revascularization.
