متن کاملOutcomes in patients with chronicity of left bundle-branch block with possible acute myocardial infarction.
INTRODUCTION Guidelines derived from patients in clinical trials indicate that emergency department patients with likely myocardial infarction (MI) who have new left bundle-branch block (LBBB) should undergo rapid reperfusion therapy. Whether this pertains to lower risk emergency department patients with LBBB is unclear. METHODS A total of 401 consecutive patients with LBBB undergoing an MI r...
متن کاملLeft Bundle Branch Block
Coronary angiography, cine left ventriculography, and the cardiovascular hemodynamics of 24 patients with left bundle branch block were studied. Seven patients were found to have significant coronary artery disease, always severe. Five had cardiomyopathy and seven had valvular disease. Only those with coronary artery disease or cardiomyopathy had abnormal left ventricular contraction patterns. ...
