Abstract：Objective To investigate the effect rosuvastatin on cardiac function in patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods 150 patients with acute STEMI treated in our hospital were divided into observation group and control group,and 75 cases in each group.The two groups were given anticoagulation,inhibition of ventricular remodeling and anti-myocardial ischemia and other conventional treatment.The patients in observation group were orally administrated with rosuvastatin 10 mg/d based on the conventional treatment 7 days before PCI.Amino acid N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP),high sensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels,6 minutes walk distance (6MWT),ultrasound heartbeat graph data and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) incidence of two groups were compared at preoperative and postoperative 12 weeks.Results At 12 weeks of post-operation,6MWT and normal cardiac diastolic function proportion compared to pre-operation significant increase;6MWT,normal diastolic function ratio,left ventricularejection fraction of observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group;the NT-ProBNP,hs-CRP and MACE incidence of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group.The difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Patients with acute STEMI undergoing PCI oral rosuvastatin at 7 days of pre-operation can significantly reduce the inflammatory markers,significantly improve cardiac systolic and diastolic function and does not increase the incidence of major cardiovascular events,worthy of clinical reference.
