Study of the Duration, Outcomes, and Related Factors of Reperfusion Therapy in Patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Background and Objective: One of the most important advancements regarding the care of patients with acute myocardial infarction is the administration of anti-coagulation medicines (e.g., streptokinase). However, it must be noticed that this medicine requires rapid and timely administration. Moreover, Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is increasingly used as a method of revascularization...
متن کامل[Female sex is inversely and independently associated with marked ST-segment elevation. A study in patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction and early admission].
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES In patients with acute myocardial infarction, a number of variables in the initial ECG are useful prognostic indicators. The presence of ST-segment elevation, however, usually indicates the need for reperfusion therapy. The aims of this study were to investigate sex differences in the ECGs of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and to look for a ...
متن کاملReperfusion times of ST-Segment elevation myocardial infarction in hospitals
OBJECTIVE To investigate the reperfusion time in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in Henan Province, China, and discuss the strategies for shortening that period. METHODS The reperfusion times of 1556 STEMI cases in 30 hospitals in Henan Province were analyzed from January 2008 to August 2012, including 736 cases from provincial hospitals, 462 cases from munici...
متن کاملReperfusion Therapy for ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Reperfusion therapy represents an important step forward in the management of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Few medicinal treatments have been evaluated so well. In numerous randomized controlled trials, reperfusion therapy proved to reduce infarct size and improve early and long-term clinical outcome when compared with control treatment. The cornerstones of ...
متن کاملAcute reperfusion strategies for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
The overall aim of reperfusion therapy for patients presenting with an ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is to restore normal blood flow in the infarct-related artery as rapidly and completely as possible, and thus myocardial perfusion. This can be achieved by the administration of thrombolytic therapy (either pre-hospital or in hospital) or by primary percutaneous coronary int...
