Cardiac myocytes' dynamic contractile behavior differs depending on heart segment.
Cardiac myocytes originating from different parts of the heart exhibit varying morphology and ultrastructure. However, the difference in their dynamic behavior is unclear. We examined the contraction of cardiac myocytes originating from the apex, ventricle, and atrium, and found that their dynamic behavior, such as amplitude and frequency of contraction, differs depending on the heart segment o...
متن کاملAsymptomatic ST segment elevation.
Asymptomatic ST segment elevation in a life insurance applicant's ECG raises several prognostically important possibilities such as myocardial infarction, pericarditis, Brugada syndrome and early repolarization. This ECG case study discusses the ECG features involved in the differential diagnosis.
متن کاملTransient ST-Segment Elevation
AN IDEAL LESION for coronary artery bypass graft surgery is a severe proximal narrowing of a major coronary artery with a distal vessel free of severe disease. It would be helpful if it were possible to identify those patients likely to have such ideal "surgical" lesions prior to arteriography by means of the electrocardiogram. It has been proposed that the presence of transient ST-segment elev...
متن کاملGuideline adherence after ST-segment elevation versus non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction.
BACKGROUND Clinical guidelines recommend similar medical therapy for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-segment elevation MI (NSTEMI). METHODS AND RESULTS Using the Get with the Guidelines-Coronary Artery Disease registry (GWTG-CAD), we analyzed data including 72 352 patients (48 966, NSTEMI; 23 386, STEMI) from 237 US sites between May 1, 2006 and Mar...
متن کاملStudy 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...
