BACKGROUND Haemoglobin drop is common in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients and correlates with poor prognosis. However, the association between mild haemoglobin drop and adverse clinical outcome remains insufficiently investigated. This study aimed to examine the association between in-hospital haemoglobin drop and risk for adverse clinical outcomes in ACS pa-tients, especially those with mild drop.METHODS Included patients from the BleeMACS (Bleeding complications in a Multicenter registry of patients discharged af-ter an Acute Coronary Syndrome) registry were categorized into three groups by the presence and amount of in-hospital haemog-lobin drop (non-drop, mild drop and severe drop). The cut-off point between mild drop and severe drop is ≥ 3 g/dL. Multivariate Cox regression was used to assess the association between haemoglobin drop and major adverse cardiac endpoints (MACE). Pa-tients taking potent P2Y12 inhibitors were selected for the additional analysis. Propensity score matching was used to avoid select-ive bias in the additional analysis. RESULTS Of 6911 patients, 4949 patients (71.6％) experienced in-hospital haemoglobin drop. Compare with non-drop group, pa-tients with haemoglobin drop had higher risk of MACE [adjusted hazard ratio (HR) = 1.36, 95％ CI: 1.03–1.80 for mild drop group;adjusted HR = 1.70, 95％ CI: 1.07–2.68 for severe drop group]. Patients in mild drop group were less likely to receive potent P2Y12 inh-ibitors at discharge (mild drop group vs. severe drop group vs. non-drop group: 10.9％ vs. 10.7％ vs. 23.8％). After propensity score matching adjustment among patients with potent P2Y12 inhibitors, patients in mild drop group were not associated with an incr-eased risk of MACE than those in non-drop group (adjusted HR = 1.52, 95％ CI: 0.49–4.72). CONCLUSIONS In-hospital haemoglobin drop was common in ACS patients and associated with a higher risk for adverse eve-nts. Reduced prescription for potent P2Y12 inhibitors may be responsible for poor prognoses among patients with mild haemog-lobin drop.
