  1. 6. Improving management of STEMI patients treated with primary PCI : Pharmacotherapy, renal function estimation and gender perspective

    Author : Dimitrios Venetsanos; Eva Swahn; Joakim Alfredsson; Sofia Sederholm-Lawesson; Sigrun Halvorsen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis focused on the acute management of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in an effort to provide information that may improve outcome. The aim was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bivalirudin versus unfractionated heparin (UFH) in STEMI patients during primary PCI. READ MORE

  3. 8. Catching broken hearts - Electrocardiography and in-hospital outcome in Takotsubo syndrome versus ST elevation myocardial infarction

    Author : Rickard Zeijlon; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Takotsubo syndrome; ST elevation myocardial infarction; electrocardiography; arrhythmia; mortality; pathophysiology;

    Abstract : BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Takotsubo syndrome (TS) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have similar symptoms, non-invasive test results and complications. Whereas AMI is caused by cardiac ischemia, the pathophysiology of TS is incompletely understood. READ MORE

  4. 9. Electrocardiographic predictors of clinical outcome in ST-elevation myocardial infarction

    Author : Marina Demidova; Kardiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Malignant ventricular arrhythmias, particularly ventricular fibrillation (VF), remain an important contributor to mortality in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The size of myocardial injury is one more important factor influencing the prognosis of STEMI patients. READ MORE

  5. 10. Acute Coronary Syndromes. Characteristics, management and prognosis in relation to gender and type of syndrome

    Author : Elisabeth Perers; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Acute coronary syndromes; gender; age; treatment; quality of life; outcome;

    Abstract : ABSTRACT Background: Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) represent a wide spectrum of conditions from ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) to unstable angina pectoris (UAP). Randomized trials tend to focus on ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-elevation ACS, and consequently studies providing data on the entire condition are relatively scarce, especially with information including long-term follow-up.
