Resolution of ST-segment depression: A new prognostic marker in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
AIMS To evaluate the prognostic impact of ST depression resolution among patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary PCI in the Assessment of Pexelizumab in Acute Myocardial Infarction (APEX-AMI) trial. METHODS AND RESULTS In this study, 4729 of 5745 patients had analysable ECGs demonstrating concomitant ST-segment depression. Resolution of summation op...
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 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 کاملPrognostic impact of early ST-segment resolution in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction.
Simple and rapid measures are needed for timely assessment of the quality of reperfusion therapy in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Although successful recanalization of the epicardial vessel is a necessary condition, it is the microvascular flow that most strongly correlates with outcome. ST-segment changes reflect myocardial rather than epicardial flow and hence yield progno...
