Trends in ST-elevation myocardial infarction

Coronary Artery Disease, 2021
Aims Despite recent progress in coronary artery disease treatment, ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains a very high-risk medical condition. Whether recent patients’ outcomes, following implementation of the 2012 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) STEMI guidelines have improved, is yet unclear.

Sex Disparities in Diagnostic Evaluation and Revascularization in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction—A 15‐Year Nationwide Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background Although sex disparities in the diagnostic evaluation and revascularization of patients with acute myocardial infarction are well documented, no study has evaluated longitudinal trends in these disparities.

The diagnostic utility of creatine kinase-MB versus total creatine phosphokinase ratio in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction from unstable angina

SAGE Open Medicine, 2023
Objective: The present study seeks to find a way to quickly and correctly differentiate myocardial infarction from unstable angina by measuring the creatine kinase-MB/creatine phosphokinase ratio and comparing in non-ST elevation myocardial infarction ...

Significance of reciprocal ST segment depression in ST elevation myocardial infarction

Egyptian Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2017
Background: The significance of reciprocal ST segment depression during acute myocardial infarction has been an area of debate, whether it is a sign of multivessel disease, ischemia at a distance or merely a benign electrical phenomenon.

Transient ST-elevation myocardial infarction versus persistent ST-elevation myocardial infarction. An appraisal of patient characteristics and functional outcome [PDF]

International Journal of Cardiology, 2021
Up to 24% of patients presenting with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) show resolution of ST-elevation and symptoms before revascularization. The mechanisms of spontaneous reperfusion are unclear. Given the more favorable outcome of transient STEMI, it is important to obtain further insights in differential aspects.We compared 251 patients ...

Likelihood and predictors of ST-elevation in patients hospitalized for myocardial infarction. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Emergency treatment options in myocardial infarction are guided by presence or absence of ST-elevations in electrocardiography. Occurrence and factors associated with ST-presentation in different population groups are however inadequately known.To ...

Occluded Coronary Artery among Non-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients in Department of Cardiology of a Tertiary Care Centre: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study

Journal of Nepal Medical Association, 2023
Introduction: Non-ST elevation myocardial infarction is frequently thought to be caused by incomplete blockage of the culprit artery, whereas ST elevation myocardial infarction is frequently thought to be caused by total occlusion of the culprit artery.

Significance of ST‐Segment elevation in V4R lead in patients with anterior myocardial infarction

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2021
Background There is some evidence of the association between ST‐segment elevation in the V4R chest lead and the likelihood of anterior wall myocardial infarction; however, the link of this phenomenon with the location and the severity of the coronary ...

Electrocardiographic Recognition of Unprotected Left Main ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction

JACC: Case Reports, 2021
ST-segment elevation in aVR has traditionally been used for electrocardiographic identification of left main coronary artery (LM) myocardial infarction. We present two ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) cases with acute total occlusion of

ST elevation without myocardial infarction [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2014
Acute myocarditis may mimic myocardial infarction because the affected patients report ‘classical’ chest pain; the ECG changes and echocardiography are identical to those observed in acute coronary syndromes, and serum markers are increased. We describe a case with ST segment elevation on admission ECG, and coronary angiography was normal.
