IMPACT OF LEFT VENTRICULAR DYSFUNCTION ON THE OCCURRENCE OF VENTRICULAR ARRHYTHMIAS AFTER ACUTE ST ELEVATION MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION

Objective: The objective of the study was to compare incidence post STEMI ventricular arrhythmias among patients with versus without LV dysfunction. Methodology: This prospective Cohort conducted in department cardiology a tertiary care hospital, Isra University Hospital, Hyderabad over period eleven months from 1st September 2019 31st July 2020 and recruited total 95 STEMI. Baseline data (age, gender, social class, marital status) clinical (basal metabolic rate, systolic diastolic blood pressure, random sugar, LVSD) were recorded pre-structured questionnaire analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21 see comparative by applying chi-square test where applicable. Results: Out patients, 53 had left dysfunction (55.7%). overall 23.1% it significantly higher LVSD as compared those normal function, 36.3% 72.7% respectively (p = 0.001). Conclusion: Our shows that burden tachyarrhythmias is two times function.
