Filter by:The optimal timing of surgery in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and the utilization of preoperative intra-aortic balloon pumps (IABP) in these patients are subjects of ongoing discussion and disagreement. This study aimed to investigate the effects of preoperative IABP on troponin levels, surgical timing, and intraoperative and postoperative outcomes for patients with AMI who undergo coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
Hemorrhagic Myocardial infarctions are at high risk for mechanical complications including cardiac rupture. Prediction of vulnerable myocardial segments is an important step for the stratification of hemorrhagic MI patients. Wall motion index ratio is an important parameter to determine regions of high vulnerability within the 17-segment LV model of hemorrhagic MI.
Developing a prediction score model for predicting the likelihood of Hemorrhagic MI
Despite advancements in treatments, cardiovascular diseases, especially acute myocardial infarction (AMI), remain significant health concerns. This study hypothesized that stem cells could improve left ventricular function post-AMI. An open-label trial was initiated to assess the safety and feasibility of intravenous infusion of ABO blood group-matched allogeneic umbilical cord blood stem cells (USC) prefabricated into MiSaver (Myocardial Infarction Saver) in AMI patients. Primary Endpoint: The primary endpoint focused on safety and adverse events over a 12-month observational period. Results showed the treatment was well-tolerated with no AEs attributed to the study product. Secondary Outcomes: Secondary outcomes evaluated changes in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) from baseline to 12 months post-treatment. A retrospective study compared eligible controls with low and middle dosage groups.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of listening to the voice recordings of relatives of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who were treated in the coronary intensive care unit on chest pain, anxiety and depression parameters of the patients. Methods In the study, which was conducted as a randomised, controlled, experimental study, voice recordings of the family members of the patients were created and played to the patients through a music pillow. The study was carried out with 60 patients, 30 experimental and 30 control groups. Three tests were applied to the patients 15 minutes before, 15 and 30 minutes after the application. The data of the study were collected using the "Patient Introduction Form", "Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale", "Visual Analogue Scale" and "Patient Follow-up Form".
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) has a negative effect on acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients and appears to be closely associated with reduced left ventricular function. However, its impact on AMI patients with reduced left ventricular function remains unclear. This retrospective study included AMI patients with reduced left ventricular function to investigate the prognostic value of PH in this specific type of patient. Meanwhile, a nomogram would be established basing on the identified independent risk factors, hoping to provide a novel risk stratification for them.
High-sensitive cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) is a cornerstone for diagnosing acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, it is often challenging to diagnose AMI in patients with elevated hs-cTnT before a rise or fall of hs-cTnT can be observed. The elevations of hs-cTnT are caused not only by AMI, but also by other cardiac or even non-cardiac diseases. Thresholds above the 99th percentile have been proposed to improve the specificity and to accelerate the rule in of myocardial infarction. This study aimed to find a more accurate cut-off value to rule in AMI in patients with elevated hs-cTnT.
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine in patients with acute coronary syndrome. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does nurse counseling affect quality of life? - Does nurse counseling affect functional capacity? - Does nurse counseling affect knowledge, attitudes and beliefs about syndromes? Participants will be trained using the training booklet, and nursing counseling will then be provided for six months. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare with the control group to see if the nurse counseling has had an effect.
A multicenter randomized double-blind placebo parallel control design was used in this study. The 90 participants were randomly assigned to placebo, 0.5μg/kg dose group, and 1.0μg/kg dose group in a ratio of 1:1:1. After randomization, subjects received the trial drug or placebo intravenously within 12 hours and on days 2 to 7 after PCI. The patients were observed 90 days after PCI.
This was a retrospective study using the Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD). The study employed two study designs for different purposes as follows: - A cross-sectional analysis was conducted to explore the annual incidence trends. - A longitudinal cohort study was conducted to assess baseline characteristics, treatment patterns, long-term healthcare utilization, and cause-specific mortality among incident AMI patients. In each part, the study was conducted for AMI, and separately for ST-segment elevation and non-ST- segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI and NSTEMI)
