non invasive assessment of myocardial perfusion after first myocardial infarction with transthoracic echocardiography
background: standard methods for the measurement of myocardial perfusion are invasive and require cardiac catheterization or the use of radioisotope dyes. the coronary sinus blood flow (csbf) is an appropriate criterion for the efficacy of myocardial perfusion. this study sought to measure csbf via transthoracic echocardiography (tte) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (ami) and to as...
متن کاملArrhythmic death and ICD implantation after myocardial infarction
Arrhythmic death remains one of the most important causes of mortality after an acute myocardial infarction also in the revascularization era. As a consequence, identification of patients at risk should be performed before discharge. Unfortunately, in the clinical practice, this evaluation is mainly based on detection of a depressed left ventricular ejection. This approach, however, cannot adeq...
متن کاملObjective haemodynamic assessment after acute myocardial infarction.
Haemodynamic measurements were made in 84 patients with coronary heart disease soon after admission to a cardiac care unit. Patients without acute myocardial infarction had haemodynamic findings no differentfrom those with definite infarction uncomplicated by congestive heart failure or cardiogenic shock. With these complications, however, haemodynamic derangements became more severe. Heart rat...
متن کاملCombined assessment of T-wave alternans and late potentials used to predict arrhythmic events after myocardial infarction. A prospective study.
OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to determine whether the combination of two markers that reflect depolarization and repolarization abnormalities can predict future arrhythmic events after acute myocardial infarction (MI). BACKGROUND Although various noninvasive markers have been used to predict arrhythmic events after MI, the positive predictive value of the markers remains low. ...
متن کاملNon-invasive Predictors of Mortality after Acute Myocardial Infarction
There is a need to identify patients with an increased risk of dying after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), because sudden cardiac death (SCD) and potentially fatal ventricular tachyarrhythmias can be prevented by an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, or in some cases, with aggressively optimized drug or revascularization therapy. The present study was designed to study the predictive po...
