Etiologies and Predictors of ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Rapid diagnosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is essential for the appropriate management of patients. We investigated the prevalence, etiologies and predictors of false-positive diagnosis of STEMI and subsequent inappropriate catheterization laboratory activation in patients with presumptive diagnosis of STEMI. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Four hundr...
متن کاملAnticoagulation for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
Adjunctive anticoagulant therapy reduces the risk of recurrent infarction and death in patients with STsegment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) receiving fibrinolytic therapy.1–5 Unfractionated heparin (UFH), the first anticoagulant evaluated for this indication,1 continues to be used because of its predominantly nonrenal clearance, short half-life, reversibility, and the familiarity of ...
متن کاملFalse Positive ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a serious disease in clinical practice. The rapid and accurate diagnosis of this critical illness can lead to prompt reperfusion, and it enables the reduction of cardiac ischemic damage and results in improved subsequent outcomes. The shorter the time to reperfusion, the greater the benefits. The American College of Cardiology/American...
متن کاملST-Segment Elevation in Acute Myocardial Infarction
Four hundred and four patients who were admitted to the hospital with their first myocardial infarction within 24 hours of the onset of symptoms were studied. In 315 patients the ECG findings in 12 standards leads (I, II, aVF, aVR, aVL, V,-V6) showed the infarction to be in the anterior wall, the inferior wall, or in multiple areas. The patients in each of these three categories were further su...
متن کاملDo statins influence the prognostic impact of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia after ST-elevation myocardial infarction?
AIMS The study evaluates the effect of statin therapy on the prognostic impact of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) occurring after acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS AND RESULTS From the German Acute Coronary Syndrome Registry (ACOS), 3137 patients with STEMI and in-hospital Holter monitoring were analysed. Three hundred and forty-six (11.0%) patients had NS...
