Clinical Trial Summary

Right ventricular infarction usually occurs in association with inferior myocardial infarction in about 10-50% of the cases. Currently the presence of elevation in right pericordial leads is the most powerful indicator of right ventricular infarction.

The incidence of right ventricular infarction is more in postmortem studies,meaning that Right ventricular infarction is underestimated, possible explanation for this difference could be explained that electrocardiographic sign of Right ventricular infarction disappear early or patients presented late.


Clinical Trial Description

The incidence of right ventricular infarction is more in postmortem studies,meaning that Right ventricular infarction is underestimated, possible explanation for this difference could be explained that electrocardiographic sign of Right ventricular infarction disappear early or patients presented late

The role of Right ventricular systolic function in inferior myocardial infarction patients with or without Right ventricular infarction Had been studied. In our study we will Assess Right Ventricular infarction in patients of acute inferior myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention by correlating electrocardiogram, Right ventricular systolic function by echocardiography with the angiographic finding. ;
