predicting the culprit lesion in acute inferior st-elevation myocardial infarction based on wellens’ criteria and tierala’s algorithm
results prediction of the rca as culprit lesion using tierala's algorithm was 86% sensitive and 50% specific. prediction of lcx occlusion based on st-elevation ≥ 1 mm in v6 was 87% specific (p = 0.005). sum of st elevation in leads v5 and v6 more than 2.5 mm, was a good marker of lcx prediction (p = 0.044). st-elevation in v4r was 48% sensitive and 89% specific for rca prediction (p = 0.004). w...
متن کاملInferior ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Associated with Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is usually characterized by transient left ventricular apical ballooning. Due to the clinical symptoms which include chest pain, electrocardiographic changes, and elevated myocardial markers, Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is frequently mimicking ST-elevation myocardial infarction in the absence of a significant coronary artery disease. Otherwise an acute occlusion of t...
متن کاملVitamin D deficiency predicts the ST elevation type of myocardial infarction in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
According to studies, a significant association exists between the low levels of vitamin D and cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction (MI). In a prospective, case control study, 88 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) including ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and Non-STEMI were enrolled. The plasma level of 25-hydroxy vitamin D[25(OH)D] was obtained at the time ...
متن کاملDifferences in intravascular ultrasound findings in culprit lesions in infarct-related arteries between ST segment elevation myocardial infarction and non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction.
BACKGROUND Previous studies have reported diffuse destabilization of atherosclerotic plaques in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We used intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) to assess coronary culprit lesions in ST segment elevation MI (STEMI) vs. in non-ST segment elevation MI (NSTEMI). METHODS Patient population comprised 125 STEMI and 185 NSTEMI patients. IVUS findings included ruptured plaqu...
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...
