QT interval Independently Predicts Mortality and Heart Failure in Patients with ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction
OBJECTIVES Heart-rate corrected QT (QTc) interval predicts cardiovascular mortality or all-cause mortality in the general population. Little is known about the best cut-off value of QTc interval for predicting clinical events in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS We enrolled 264 patients with STEMI who received measurement of QTc intervals at ER (QTc-ER), on day...
متن کاملcomparison between qt interval parameters in type 2 diabetic and nondiabetic patients with non-st elevation myocardial infarction
background: qt interval parameters have been suggested as a predictor of lethal arrhythmia and mortality in patients with myocardial infarction. the aim of the present study was to compare the value of qt interval indices in patients presenting with non-st-segment elevation myocardial infarction (nstemi) between a group of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and a nondiabetic group of patien...
متن کاملElectrocardiographic left ventricular hypertrophy is not associated with increased in-hospital adverse events in patients experiencing first non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction: A single center study
Background: There is conflicting data about prognostic implication of electrocardiographic (ECG) left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in patients with first non- ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). We aimed to examine the association of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) on admission electrocardiogram with adverse outcomes in patients with NSTEMI. Methods: In the present study, ...
متن کاملIncidence of, predictors for, and mortality associated with malignant ventricular arrhythmias in non-ST elevation myocardial infarction patients.
BACKGROUND The incidence of non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) is increasing. Although life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias have been well-documented in patients with ST elevation MI (STEMI), their incidence and importance in NSTEMI have not been examined in similar detail. We examined the incidence, predictors, and mortality rates of ventricular arrhythmias in a cohort of NSTE...
متن کاملActivin A Predicts Left Ventricular Remodeling and Mortality in Patients with ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction.
BACKGROUND Activin A levels increase in a variety of heart diseases including ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The aim of this study is to investigate whether the level of activin A can be beneficial in predicting left ventricular remodeling, heart failure, and death in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS We enrolled 278 patients with STEMI who had the...
