3 wrz 2023 · Objectives: Identify the signs and symptoms of acute myocardial infarction through comprehensive patient assessment and interpretation of diagnostic findings. Assess the severity and extent of myocardial damage using diagnostic tests such as electrocardiography (ECG), cardiac biomarkers, and imaging modalities.
4 maj 2020 · Acute myocardial infarction (MI) historically is defined as a clinical syndrome that meets a certain set of criteria, usually a combination of symptoms, electrocardiographic changes, and cardiac biomarkers in the proper clinical context.
Acute myocardial infarction has traditionally been divided into ST elevation or non-ST elevation myocardial infarction; however, therapies are similar between the two, and the overall management of acute myocardial infarction can be reviewed for simplicity.
25 maj 2017 · Acute myocardial infarction is classified on the basis of the presence or absence of ST-segment elevation on the ECG and is further classified into six types: infarction due to coronary...
In this review, we will summarize recent findings from our laboratory and others that have used mental stress provocation in patients with CAD to study the impact of acute mental stress on cardiovascular physiology, myocardial ischemia, and major adverse cardiovascular outcomes (MACE).
15 lis 2021 · The causes that determine these two clinical events are not yet fully defined (ischemic injury, embolism of the capillary bed, production of oxygen free radical, vascular endothelial dysfunction, calcium overload, inflammatory reaction, stress response, etc.).
