A new scoring system to stratify risk in unstable angina
BACKGROUND We performed this study to develop a new scoring system to stratify different levels of risk in patients admitted to hospital with a diagnosis of unstable angina (UA), which is a complex syndrome that encompasses different outcomes. Many prognostic variables have been described but few efforts have been made to group them in order to enhance their individual predictive power. METHO...
متن کاملPercutaneous coronary intervention in single coronary artery in a patient with high-risk unstable angina.
In the present case, we report the performance of coronary angioplasty with stent implantation in the right coronary artery of a patient with high-risk unstable angina and single coronary artery originating from the right coronary sinus. The anterior descending and circumflex arteries originated separately from the proximal third of the right coronary artery. This is a rare coronary anomaly and...
متن کاملA genetic fuzzy system for unstable angina risk assessment
BACKGROUND Unstable Angina (UA) is widely accepted as a critical phase of coronary heart disease with patients exhibiting widely varying risks. Early risk assessment of UA is at the center of the management program, which allows physicians to categorize patients according to the clinical characteristics and stratification of risk and different prognosis. Although many prognostic models have bee...
متن کاملReview: invasive management after unstable angina or non-ST-segment elevation MI does not reduce risk for death or MI.
M e t h o d s Data sources: MEDLINE and EMBASE/ Excerpta Medica (1966 to September 2003), and bibliographies of relevant articles. Study selection and assessment: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs), published in English, that compared invasive and noninvasive strategies for early management of patients with unstable angina or NSTEMI; had ≥ 3-month follow-up; and reported mortality, reinfarctio...
متن کاملEvaluating risk in unstable angina: role of pharmacological stress echocardiography.
The appropriate management of the individual patient presenting with unstable angina remains challenging for physicians, despite improved knowledge of the pathophysiology of acute coronary syndromes and considerable increased availability of diagnostic techniques and treatment regimens. Unstable angina is most frequently the consequence of acute disruption of a vulnerable, usually lipid-rich, a...
