2. 1. Prognostic impact of coronary microvascular funtion in patients with ischemic heart disease

   Author : Inger Haraldsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; coronary microvascular function; coronary flow reserve; coronary artery disease; acute coronary syndromes; thrombus aspiration; pretreatment; SCAAR; SWEDHEART;

   Abstract : Background: Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of death globally. Despite recent advances in interventional and medical therapies, survivors of myocardial infarction are at high risk of recurrent cardiovascular events. READ MORE

4. 2. Factors influencing prognosis in acute coronary syndrome - A report from the SWEDEHEART registry

   Author : Oskar Angerås; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Acute coronary syndrome; acute myocardial infarction; risk factors; obesity paradox; socioeconomic status; cardiogenic shock; thrombus aspiration; SWEDEHEART; SCAAR; RIKS-HIA;

   Abstract : Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is one of the major causes of mortality in the world. The prognosis for patients with ACS is affected by several factors, such as baseline characteristics and treatment before, during and after hospitalisation. . READ MORE

5. 3. Impact of chronic total occlusions, arterial access site, and pretreatment with antiplatelet drugs on mortality in patients with ischemic heart disease: A report from the SWEDEHEART registry

   Author : Christian Dworeck; Göteborgs universitet; []

   Abstract : Impact of chronic total occlusions, arterial access site and pretreatment with antiplatelet drugs on mortality in patients with ischemic heart disease: A report from the SWEDEHEART registry Background Treatment of ischemic heart disease has advanced substantially in the past half-century. However, despite these achievements the survival rates in high-income countries such as Sweden have reached a plateau in the last decade. READ MORE

6. 4. The role of simulator training for skills aquisition in coronary angiography

   Author : Ulf Jensen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Introduction: Coronary angiography (CA) is one of our most common invasive techniques in medicine today and is used to investigate coronary anatomy and pathology. The method is crucial and lifesaving in diagnosing acute coronary syndromes and so far not interchangeable to any other modality. READ MORE

7. 5. Acute coronary syndromes. The prognostic importance of hypertension, diabetes and vectorcardiographic markers

   Author : Markus Lingman; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; acute coronary syndromes; hypertension; diabetes; percutaneous coronary intervention; prognosis; myocardial ischemia; coronary artery disease; electrocardiography; vectorcardiography; arrhythmia; sudden death; electrophysiology;

   Abstract : Research questions: 1 Is hypertension and diabetes associated with the future risk of death, and recurrent manifestations of cardiovascular disease in acute coronary syndromes (ACS)? 2 How does myocardial ischemia affect depolarization and repolarization of the heart during the early phase of an acute myocardial infarction? 3 What is the prognostic value of accepted vectorcardiographic markers in relation to future risk of sudden cardiac death after ACS? Methodology: Papers I, III and IV studied patients with ACS prospectively and consecutively included at the coronary care unit of Sahlgrenska University Hospital. Paper I deals with 2,329 patients who were followed for a median of 8 years. READ MORE
