ST-segment elevation in leads I and aVL predicts short-term prognosis in acute anterior wall myocardial infarction.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Our study demonstrates that ST-segment elevation in both leads I and aVL noted on admission for an anterior acute myocardial infarction does portend a worse short-term survival. Independent predictors of short-term prognosis in an anterior acute myocardial infarction include ST elevation in both leads I and aVL, advanced age, female gender, left ventricular failure, and malignant arrhythmias.

Background :In addition to diagnosing the acute myocardial infarction (MI), stratifying high-risk patients and proper treatment strategies are important issues in managing patients complaining of chest pain and suspecting MI. Many studies have been conducted to predict the occlusion site by interpreting the ST segment deviations in Electrocardiogram (ECG).Additional posterior and right precor...

Background & Objective: Patients with ischemic heart disease classified to two major groups: patients with stable angina and patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). Previous studies showed that posterior segment of left ventricle is a silent segment on ECG, and routine 12 leads electrocardiogram (ECG) is not sensitive for evaluation of posterior infarction. This study designed for evaluati...

OBJECTIVES We sought to investigate the short-term prognostic value of the admission electrocardiogram (ECG) in patients with a first acute myocardial infarction (MI) without ST segment elevation. BACKGROUND ST segment depression on hospital admission predicts a worse outcome in patients with a first acute MI, but the prognostic information provided by the location of ST segment depression re...

Rev Esp Cardiol 2002;55(10):1015-7 1015 In the acute phase of myocardial infarction, the electrocardiogram (ECG) offers valuable information about the extension of the ischemic area, so that the magnitude of ST-segment elevation in different leads usually corresponds well with the magnitude of the ischemic area and myocardial damage.1 In relation to therapy, elevation of the ST segment definite...
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...
