Myocardial Reperfusion Injury

Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 1990
A review of the mechanism of ischemic-reperfusion injury, proposed interventions to prevent injury, and future directions have been presented to enhance the practitioner's knowledge of this new, exciting concept in myocardial injury. There is increasing evidence in the literature that reperfusion injury may occur in other organ systems and is ...

Myocardial injury due to lightning

International Journal of Legal Medicine, 1997
The report deals with a 27-year-old male who was standing in a tent and was injured by lightning as it struck a tree about 1.5 m away. He immediately lost consciousness and exhibited ventricular fibrillation when the emergency physician arrived. A clinical picture of hypoxaemic brain damage emerged after initially successful resuscitation.

Phenylpropanolamine and Associated Myocardial Injury

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1996
We report the cases of two patients without significant past medical history in whom developed myocardial injury attributed to the use of anorectic agents containing phenylpropanolamine. The pharmacologic properties of phenylpropanolamine and the current management of common adverse reactions to phenylpropanolamine are briefly reviewed.

Periprocedural myocardial infarction and injury

European Heart Journal: Acute Cardiovascular Care
AbstractPeriprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) and injury, pertinent to both cardiac and non-cardiac procedures, have gained increasing recognition in clinical practice. Over time, diverse definitions for diagnosing PMI have been developed and validated among patient populations undergoing coronary revascularization.

Lysosomes and myocardial cellular injury

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1972
Abstract The stability of myocardial lysosomes in left posterior papillary muscle sites of predictable injury was investigated after 1, 2 and 4 hours of acute partial ligation of the left circumflex coronary artery of the dog heart. Lysosome stability in the papillary muscle locus of injury was significantly reduced within 1 hour and continued to ...

A model for experimental myocardial injury

Journal of Pharmacological Methods, 1980
The two most commonlj/ used experimental models for production of myocardial injury are ligation of the coronary arteries (Harris, 1950; Goldfarb and Gott, 1968) and injection of microspheres’(Agress et al., 1952) or metallic mercury (Lluck et al., 1969) into the coronary ostea.

Neutrophils and myocardial reperfusion injury

Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1996
Ischaemia induces an acute inflammatory response in myocardial tissue with an early phase of neutrophil accumulation, which is accelerated by reperfusion. In experimental models, interventions that deplete neutrophils or inhibit their function cause a significant reduction in myocardial infarct size. These cells, therefore, may exacerbate tissue injury

Biomarkers in acute myocardial injury

Translational Research, 2012
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The proper diagnosis of ACS requires reliable and accurate biomarker assays to detect evidence of myocardial necrosis. Currently, troponin is the gold standard biomarker for myocardial injury and is used commonly in conjunction with creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and

Mechanisms of myocardial reperfusion injury

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1999
Reperfusion of the ischemic myocardium results in irreversible tissue injury and cell necrosis, leading to decreased cardiac performance. While early reperfusion of the heart is essential in preventing further tissue damage due to ischemia, reintroduction of blood flow can expedite the death of vulnerable, but still viable, myocardial tissue, by ...

Biochemical Markers in Myocardial Injury

AORN Journal, 1999
ABSTRACTBiochemical markers are substances that are detected in body fluids or tissues that may signify a disease or other abnormality. Biochemical markers have been used to help in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction since the 1950s. The major problem with these markers is that they lack specificity for cardiac muscle as they are also ...
