Surgery in Myocardial Infarction

Scandinavian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1972
Thirty patients have been operated upon for acute and chronic myocardial infarcts. Seven patients had additional postinfarctional VSD. The mean age was 56.7 years. The hospital mortality was 23%, 38% in the acute group, 12% in the chronic. Seventy-one percent of the patients were improved at follow-up, observation time being from 2 months to 7 years ...

Apoptosis and myocardial infarction

Basic Research in Cardiology, 1998
Myocardial infarction was produced in rats and the contribution of apoptotic and necrotic myocyte cell death was measured quantitatively. Myocyte cell death by apoptosis involved 2.8 million cells at 2 hours after coronary artery occlusion and necrosis only 90,000 cells. Myocyte apoptosis continued to represent the major form of cell death, affecting 6.

Isoenzymes and Myocardial Infarction

New England Journal of Medicine, 1960
PLASMA and serum enzyme-activity alterations have proved useful as laboratory parameters in the diagnosis of myocardial disease.1 Among the enzymes employed to reflect myocardial necrosis are aldol...

Complications of myocardial infarction

Critical Care Medicine, 2007
Echocardiography is a most useful bedside tool to help in the diagnosis and management of critically ill patients after acute myocardial infarction. In most instances, the mechanism of unexplained shock will be elucidated. Transesophageal echocardiography can further delineate the mechanical complications of myocardial infarction when the transthoracic

MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION IN PREGNANCY

BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 1970
SummaryThirty‐six cases of myocardial infarction during pregnancy, reported in the literature since 1922, together with three new cases from National Women's Hospital, Auckland, New Zealand, are reviewed. The incidence of the condition appears to be about 1 in 10000 deliveries and the mortality is just under 30 per cent; the mortality appears to be ...

Myocardial Infarction in Pregnancy

The Journal of Perinatal & Neonatal Nursing, 2006
The number of women experiencing myocardial infarction (MI) in pregnancy is relatively negligible. However, the incidence of MI in pregnancy may be on the rise, and maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality is significant. While diagnosis may be difficult, perinatal nurses must be knowledgeable about the risk factors and various means of treatment ...

Dextrocardia with Myocardial Infarction

Chest, 1985
La coincidence rare de l'infarctus du myocarde et de la dextrocardie presente une etude interessante des principes vectoriels regissant l'infarctus du myocarde. L'etude presentee reflete les principes regissant l'infarctus myocardique de la paroi inferieure et leur modification par la ...

Myocardial infarction and pregnancy

Acta Cardiologica, 2007
Acute myocardial infarction is rare in women of childbearing age, especially in the absence of common risk factors. We describe the case of a 38-year-old multiparous woman with anterior myocardial infarction treated with thrombolysis, followed by percutaneous coronary angioplasty. The patient developed transient heart failure within the first week. The

Prevention of myocardial infarction

Journal of Hypertension, 1991
There is a significant relationship between high blood pressure and a variety of other risk factors for coronary heart disease. Antihypertensive treatment reduces the incidence of coronary heart disease, but at a lower level than expected from epidemiological data.

[An infarction, but not a myocardial infarction!]

Annales de cardiologie et d'angeiologie
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a common and serious cardiovascular disease. The management of PE patients with myocardial damage but without hemodynamic instability (intermediate/high risk) has long remained limited to anticoagulant therapy with no demonstrated positive effect of thrombolysis.
