ST elevation myocardial infarction

Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the leading causes of cardiovascular death and can experience many events during illness. The study looked at five major events including death, coronary reintervention, bleeding due to drug use, re-hospitalization, and stroke.

Coronary artery ectasia is a rare angiographic finding and results from a disease process that compromises the integrity of the vessel wall. Its prevalence ranges between 0.3% and 5% of patients undergoing coronary angiography (Swaye et al. in Circulation 67:134–138, 1983).

Anomalous coronary artery origins are not common in routine clinical practice. The incidence of coronary anomalies in patients undergoing coronary angiography is less than 1%. The greatest challenges faced in the management are delays in identification and difficulty engaging the anomalous coronary artery. Operator experience in promptly identifying the anomaly and selection of the appropriate catheter is critical for successful intervention.

Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease that has low survival rate without surgical correction. This report is about a rare case of acute ST elevation myocardial infarction in a 46-year-old patient with uncorrected TOF that was successfully treated with low-dose intracoronary thrombolysis.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in young patients is very rare, but the incidence has increased over years past at younger ages, likely due to the presence of multiple risk factors. We present the first known case of ST-elevation AMI (STEMI) in a young man.

Herein, we report three cases of acute myocardial infarction presenting as isolated ST-segment elevation in the posterior leads (V7–V9): Asian men aged 57, 62, and 53 years, who presented with ST-segment depression in V1–V3 that resolved gradually. Coronary angiography revealed a total/critical occlusion of the proximal circumfex coronary artery in all three cases.

The electrocardiogram has a critical role in the diagnosis and risk assessment of patients presenting with chest pain in the emergency ward. Recognizing the electrocardiogram of de Winter as an ST-elevation myocardial infarction equivalent in cases with suspected acute infarction is very important.

Cognitive aids have come to be viewed as promising tools in the management of perioperative critical events. The majority of published simulation studies have focussed on perioperative crises that are characterised by time pressure, rare occurrence, or complex management steps (e.g., cardiac arrest emergencies, management of the difficult airway).

Acute myocardial infarction has become a serious financial burden for patients, healthcare system, and society. It is therefore necessary to assess treatment cost of myocardial infarction that had been conducted in many countries in the world and still not fully analysed in Vietnam. Thus, we sought to describe acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction treatment cost and analyse related factors to acute STelevation myocardial infarction treatment cost.

The objective of this study was to assess diagnostic accuracy of the ECG localization of culprit vessel occlusion site and compare it with coronary angiographic findings. This study analyzed 180 cases that came with acute myocardial infarction to cardiology department of Tanta University Hospital in a period from the first of May 2016 up to the end of May 2018.

This topic is researched for two goals: Examine clinical and laboratory characteristics, coronary artery injury, coronary artery intervention in patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction who receive PPCI association with TA. Assess the results, safety and the relationship between clinical, laboratory characteristics and major cardiovascular events within 12 months in patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction who receive PPCI association with TA.

Recent studies have demonstrated that inflammatory cells are a component that plays a role in thrombus formation in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NO2-Tyr), a specific marker for protein modification by nitric oxide-derived oxidants, is increased in human atherosclerotic lesions.

Data about gender as an independent risk factor for death in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients is still contrasting. Aim was to assess how gender influences in-hospital and long-term all-cause mortality in STEMI patients with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in our region.

To investigate the association between plasma S100A1 level and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and potential significance of S100A1 in post-infarction cardiac function. Methods: We examined the plasma S100A1 level in 207 STEMI patients (STEMI group) and 217 clinically healthy subjects for routine physical examination without a history of coronary artery disease (Control group).

In the presence of non-culprit coronary stensosis, the optimal therapy for that is still a matter of debate. While guidelines discourage a concomitant treatment of infarct- and non-infarct-related arteries, recent studies document advantages of a complete (preventive) revascularization during primary PCI, which may result in overtreatment, as angiography alone does not provide robust information about the functional severity of MVD.
