Prognostic assessment of unstable angina pectoris is a common clinical problem for physicians. Markers of myocardial cell injury, serial electrocardiographic findings and ST segment monitoring are mainly studied for prognosis. We investigated the relation between myocardial injury and the value of cardiac troponin T and QT interval dispersion in hospitalized unstable angina patients. This is a prospective study that includes adult patients admitted to an emergency department with Braunwald class IIIB unstable angina pectoris. Eighty-six patients were enrolled in the study (mean age of 57 +/- 12 years, 63 males and 23 females). Cardiac troponin T was assayed and QT dispersion calculated from surface ECG. Fifty-eight patients with troponin T < 0.1 ng/ml and 28 patients with troponin T levels > or = 0.1 formed group 1 and group 2, respectively. There were no significant differences in sex, age, history of coronary revascularization or ECG findings such as ST depression and T inversions between the two groups. The QT dispersion was significantly greater in patients with elevated cardiac troponin T levels (77 +/- 18 msec vs 38 +/- 13 mse; p < 0.014). Because QT interval dispersion exhibited an association with cardiac troponin T levels, it may be used as a non-invasive marker of ischemic injury in patients with unstable angina. 相似文献

AIMS: To test the hypothesis that Qr in V(1)is a predictor of pulmonary embolism, right ventricular strain, and adverse clinical outcome. METHODS AND RESULTS: ECG's from 151 patients with suspected pulmonary embolism were blindly interpreted by two observers. Echocardiography, troponin I, and pro-brain natriuretic peptide levels were obtained in 75 patients with pulmonary embolism. Qr in V(1)(14 vs 0 in controls; p<0.0001) and ST elevation in V(1)> or =1 mV (15 vs 1 in controls; p=0.0002) were more frequently present in patients with pulmonary embolism. Sensitivity and specificity of Qr in V(1)and T wave inversion in V(2)for predicting right ventricular dysfunction were 31/97% and 45/94%, respectively. Three of five patients who died in-hospital and 11 of 20 patients with a complicated course, presented with Qr in V(1). After adjustment for right ventricular strain including ECG, echocardiography, pro-brain natriuretic peptide and troponin I levels, Qr in V(1)(OR 8.7, 95%CI 1.4-56.7; p=0.02) remained an independent predictor of adverse outcome. CONCLUSIONS: Among the ECG signs seen in patients with acute pulmonary embolism, Qr in V(1)is closely related to the presence of right ventricular dysfunction, and is an independent predictor of adverse clinical outcome. 相似文献

Right ventricular (RV) overload and hypoxia in acute pulmonary embolism (APE) may lead to RV myocardium injury reflected by elevated cardiac troponin levels. We studied 26 patients aged 57.2+/-17.8 years with first episode of APE. On admission troponin T (TnT) was measured. Transthoracic echocardiography was performed after 6 months of anticoagulation. Myocardial injury (TnT > or =0.03 ng/ml) was observed in 8 (30.8%) patients at the diagnosis. At follow up RV diastolic area tended to be larger in group with myocardial injury (25.0 (20.8-38.6) vs 18.4 (17.7-23.3) cm(2), p=0.06). Tricuspid annulus systolic velocity at tissue Doppler was lower in group with myocardial injury (0.12 (0.11-0.13) vs 0.15 (0.13-0.21) m/s, p=0.04), while no such a relationship was found for mitral annulus systolic velocity. TnT concentration correlated with RV diastolic area (r=0.61) and tricuspid annulus systolic velocity (r=-0.58) although not significantly (p=0.08 and p=0.09. respectively). Our data suggest that RV injury in acute phase of PE may lead to its remodeling. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: Our primary objective was to examine the prognostic relationship between baseline quantitative ST-segment depression (ST) and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) elevation. The secondary objectives were to: 1) examine whether ST provided additional insight into therapeutic efficacy of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa therapy similar to that demonstrated by cTnT; and 2) explore whether the time to evaluation impacted on each marker's relative prognostic utility. BACKGROUND: The relationship between the baseline electrocardiogram (ECG) and cTnT measurements in risk-stratifying patients presenting with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) has not been evaluated comprehensively. METHODS: The study population consisted of 959 patients enrolled in the cTnT substudy of the Platelet IIb/IIIa Antagonism for the Reduction of Acute coronary syndrome events in a Global Organization Network (PARAGON)-B trial. Patients were classified as having no ST (n = 387), 1 mm ST (n = 433), and ST > or =2 mm (n = 139). Forty-percent (n = 381) were classified as cTnT-positive based on a definition of > or =0.1 ng/ml. RESULTS: Six-month death/(re)myocardial infarction rates were 8.4% among cTnT-negative patients with no ST and 26.8% among cTnT-positive patients with ST > or =2 mm. On ECGs done after 6 h of symptom onset, ST > or =2 mm was associated with higher risk compared to its presence on ECGs done earlier (odds ratio [OR] 7.3 vs. 2.1). In contrast, the presence of elevated cTnT within 6 h of symptom was associated with a higher risk of adverse events compared with elevations after 6 h (OR 2.4 vs. 1.5). CONCLUSIONS: Quantitative ST and cTnT status are complementary in assessing risk among ACS patients and both should be employed to determine prognosis and assist in medical decision making. 相似文献

Thirty-two consecutive patients who initially had horizontal or downward-sloping ST segment depression confined to the precordial leads were studied. Patients were divided into two groups: group A included 21 patients with horizontal or downward-sloping ST depression with peaked positive T waves, and group B comprised 11 patients with peaked negative T waves and downward or horizontal ST depression. The incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) was similar (group A 38.1% vs group B 36.4%; p greater than 0.05). In-hospital mortality was much more significant in group B (p = 0.03). Coronary arteriography was performed in 31 patients. Of the 10 patients in group B who were catheterized, seven (70%) had left main occlusion. Of the 21 patients in group A, none had a significant left main lesion (p = 0.001), although eight (38.1%) had single-vessel disease (p = 0.05). Thus the ECG pattern of horizontal or downward-sloping ST depression passing into a peaked negative T wave identifies a subgroup of high-risk patients in whom the prognosis is poor once AMI occurs. Early catheterization is recommended when this ischemic pattern is apparent on the ECG. 相似文献

Acute ST segment elevation is regarded generally as the sine qua non of evolving Q wave myocardial infarction (MI) because such electrocardiographic (ECG) injury is believed to be a marker of transmural ischemia and a forerunner of transmural necrosis. Alternatively, ST segment depression with or without T wave inversion is viewed as the dominant ECG feature of non-Q wave MI. However, this hypothesis has not been assessed prospectively in an acute MI population. We analyzed 2,304 serial ECGs at study entry (admission), day 2, day 3, and predischarge (mean, 10.2 +/- 2 days) from 576 patients with creatine kinase MB confirmed acute non-Q wave MI to determine what percentage of patients with early ST segment elevation culminated in subsequent Q wave development. Of this group, 187 patients (32%) exhibited 1 mm or greater ST segment elevation in two or more contiguous entry ECG leads. Of those patients whose non-Q wave MI could be localized on the basis of diagnostic admission ST segment shifts, the prevalence of early ST segment elevation was 43% (187 of 439). The sum total mean (+/- SD) peak ST segment elevation by lead group (anterior, inferior, lateral) was 4.0 +/- 2.4, 4.5 +/- 2.4, and 2.5 +/- 0.6 mm, respectively. Despite this, only 20% of patients with ST segment elevation (37 of 187) developed Q waves. Of 252 patients who exhibited early ST segment depression or T wave inversion or both, 39 (15%) evolved subsequent Q waves. Thus, while the prevalence of early ST segment elevation in acute evolving non-Q wave MI was higher than previously reported, 80% of patients with and 85% of patients without ST segment elevation and absent Q waves on the admission ECG did not develop subsequent Q waves during a 2-week period of observation (p = NS). In addition, when patients with ST segment elevation were compared with patients with ST segment depression or T wave inversions or both, there were no between-group differences in log peak creatine kinase (404 vs. 383 IU), reinfarction (6% vs. 8%), postinfarction angina (50% vs. 42%), or early recurrent ischemia (49% vs. 45%), defined as postinfarction angina with transient ECG changes. Thus, in patients who present with initial acute non-Q wave MI, ST segment shifts on admission are unreliable predictors of subsequent Q wave evolution and do not discriminate significant differences in postinfarction outcome. In particular, ST segment elevation during the early hours of evolving infarction is not an invariable harbinger of subsequent Q wave development. 相似文献

Inferior myocardial infarction (MI) is considered to have a more favorable prognosis than anterior wall MI but includes high risk groups with increased mortality and morbidity. It is well known that congestive heart failure (CHF) complicating acute MI has poor prognosis. In this study we assessed the clinical and prognostic significance of CHF and the predictive value of the baseline demographic and clinical variables for CHF in patients with acute inferior MI. A total of 350 patients with acute inferior MI were included. In group A there were 26 patients (7.4%) with CHF, and in group B there were 324 patients (92.6%) without this complication. Baseline clinical and demographic characteristics and in-hospital complications of the groups were assessed. In group A patients were older (67.6±9.5 vs 53.7±10.9 years, p<0.0001) and there were more female patients (50% vs 15%, p<0.00001) compared to group B. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus (58% vs 16%) and precordial ST segment depression on admission ECG (81% vs 50%) were significantly higher in group A compared to group B (p<0.00001 and p=0.002 consecutively). In group A there was a higher rate of righ ventricular (25% vs 23%), posterior (26% vs 24%) and posterolateral myocardial infarction (19% vs 14%), but the differences were not statistically different. In group A patients had significantly higher rate of second- or third-degree AV block (46% vs 8%, p<0.00001), cardiogenic shock (35% vs 1%, p<0.00001) and mortality (46% vs 3%, p<0.00001) compared to group B. In a multivariate regression analysis diabetes mellitus (p=0.0003) and precordial ST segment depression on admission ECG (p=0.002) were found as the independent predictors of in-hospital CHF in patients with acute inferior MI. CHF and ST segment depression on admission ECG were found as the independent predictors of in-hospital mortality (p<0.00001, p=0.04 consecutively). Patients with CHF complicating acute inferior MI have more unfavorable demographic and clinical characteristics on admission, higher rate of in-hospital complications and mortality. History of diabetes mellitus and precordial ST segment depression on admission ECG have an independent predictive value for CHF in this particular group of patients. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: In some patients with acute pulmonary embolism (APE) thrombi may lodge at the levels of the bifurcation of pulmonary trunk and extend into both main pulmonary arteries, forming so-called saddle embolism (SE). AIM: To assess the incidence of SE and whether it is associated with an increased risk of complicated clinical course. METHODS: We studied 150 consecutive patients (94 females, 56 males) aged 63.6+/-16.7 years with APE confirmed with contrast enhanced spiral computed tomography or transesophageal echocardiography. RESULTS: SE was detected in 22 (14.7%) patients. Mean age (SE vs N-SE) was 64.3+/-17.4 vs 63.5+/-16.6 years, heart rate 100.8+/-14.1 beats/min vs 97.8+/-21.1 beats/min, systolic blood pressure 126.2+/-20.1 vs 127.1+/-23.3 mmHg and blood pulsoximetry 92 (68-98) vs 91 (30-98) % (all differences NS). In patients with SE, echocardiographic signs of the right ventricular overload, defined as right to left ventricular end - diastolic ratio >0.6 with right ventricular hypokinesia and/or maximal tricuspid peak systolic gradient >30 mmHg with shortened acceleration time of pulmonary ejection <80 ms, were more frequent (77.3% vs 51.6%, p=0.04), as was the mid-systolic deceleration of pulmonary ejection velocity (77.3% vs 49.2%, p=0.04). Mortality and complicated clinical course rates were similar in patients with SE or N-SE (mortality: 4.5% vs 13.3%, NS, and complicated clinical course: 34.4% vs 25.0%, NS). CONCLUSIONS: Saddle pulmonary embolism is frequent, especially in patients with echocardiographic signs of impaired pulmonary ejection pattern. Saddle embolism does not indicate unfavourable clinical outcome and probably should not influence treatment selection. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES We sought to investigate the short-term prognostic value of the admission electrocardiogram (ECG) in patients with a first acute myocardial infarction (MI) without ST segment elevation. BACKGROUND ST segment depression on hospital admission predicts a worse outcome in patients with a first acute MI, but the prognostic information provided by the location of ST segment depression remains unclear. METHODS In 432 patients with a first acute MI without Q waves or ≥0.1 mV of ST segment elevation, we evaluated the ability of the initial ECG to predict in-hospital death. RESULTS The presence, magnitude and extent of ST segment depression were associated with an increased mortality, but the only electrocardiographic variable that was significant in predicting death after adjusting for baseline predictors was ST segment depression in two or more lateral (I, aVL, V5, or V6) leads (odds ratio 3.5, 95% confidence interval 1.2 to 10.6). Patients with lateral ST segment depression (n = 91, 21%) had higher rates of death (14.3% vs. 2.6%, p < 0.001), severe heart failure (14.3% vs. 4.1%, p < 0.001) and angina with electrocardiographic changes (20.0% vs. 11.6%, p = 0.04) than did the remaining patients, even though they had similar peak creatine kinase, MB fraction levels (129 ± 96 vs. 122 ± 92 IU/liter, p = NS). In contrast, ST segment depression not involving the lateral leads did not predict a poor outcome. Among patients who were catheterized, those with lateral ST segment depression had a lower left ventricular ejection fraction (57 ± 12% vs. 66 ± 13%, p = 0.001) and more frequent left main coronary artery or three-vessel disease than did the remaining patients (60% vs. 22%, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In patients with a first non–ST segment elevation acute MI, ST segment depression in the lateral leads on hospital admission predicts a poor in-hospital outcome. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Some patients with acute myocardial infarction presenting without significant ST segment elevation develop a Q-wave infarction. It is unclear whether these patients can be identified from the admission electrocardiogram (ECG) and whether they differ in their in-hospital prognosis from those who retain a non-Q-wave myocardial infarction. METHODS: In 432 consecutive patients admitted to our centre with a first acute myocardial infarction without Q waves and with ST segment amplitudes < or =0.1 mV on admission, we assessed the frequency, the electrocardiographic predictors and the short-term implications of a Q-wave evolution. RESULTS: In 94 patients (22%), a Q-wave myocardial infarction evolved before hospital discharge (14 anterior, 26 inferior, six lateral, and 48 posterior). Minor anterior ST segment elevation was 36% sensitive and 95% specific in predicting anterior Q waves; minor inferior ST segment elevation, 42% and 89%, respectively, for inferior Q waves; and a maximal ST segment depression > or =0.2 mV in leads V2-V3 with upright T waves and without remote ST segment depression, 38% and 97%, respectively, for posterior R waves. Although patients with a Q-wave evolution had a greater creatinkinase MB peak than those retaining a non-Q-wave pattern (191+/-113 vs. 105+/-77 IU/l, respectively, P<0.001), they experienced a benign in-hospital course, with similar risk of severe complications after adjustment for the baseline clinical predictors than non-Q-wave patients. CONCLUSIONS: About one fifth of patients with a first acute myocardial infarction without a significant ST segment elevation develop a Q-wave infarction and the admission ECG can help identify them. This evolution, however, is not associated with a worse in-hospital outcome. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: In unstable angina, clinical characteristics, resting electrocardiography, and early continuous ST segment monitoring have been individually reported to identify subgroups at increased risk of adverse outcome. It is not known, however, whether continuous ST monitoring provides additional prognostic information in such a setting. DESIGN: Observational study of 212 patients with unstable angina without evidence of acute myocardial infarction admitted to district general hospitals, who had participated in a randomised study comparing heparin and aspirin treatment versus aspirin alone. METHODS: Clinical variables and a 12 lead electrocardiogram (ECG) were recorded at admission, and treatment was standardised to include aspirin, atenolol, diltiazem, and intravenous glyceryl trinitrate, in addition to intravenous heparin (randomised treatment). Continuous ST segment monitoring was performed for 48 h and all inhospital adverse events were recorded. RESULTS: The admission ECG was normal in 61 patients (29%), showed ST depression in 59 (28%) (17 > or = 0.1 mV), and T wave changes in a further 69 (33%). The remaining 23 had Q waves (18), right bundle branch block (four), or ST elevation (one). During 8963 h of continuous ST segment monitoring (mean 42.3 h/patient), 132 episodes of transient myocardial ischaemia (104 silent) were recorded in 32 patients (15%). Forty patients (19%) had an adverse event (cardiac deaths (n = 3), non-fatal myocardial infarction (n = 6) and, emergency revascularisation (n = 31)). Both admission ECG ST depression (P = 0.02), and transient ischaemia (P < 0.001) predicted an increased risk of non-fatal myocardial infarction or death, while no patients with a normal ECG died or had a myocardial infarction. Adverse outcome was predicted by admission ECG ST depression (regardless of severity) (odds ratio (OR) 3.41) (P < 0.001), and maintenance beta blocker treatment (OR 2.95) (P < 0.01). A normal ECG predicted a favourable outcome (OR 0.38) (P = 0.04), while T wave or other ECG changes were not predictive of outcome. Transient ischaemia was the strongest predictor of adverse prognosis (OR 4.61) (P < 0.001), retaining independent predictive value in multivariate analysis (OR 2.94) (P = 0.03), as did maintenance beta blocker treatment (OR 2.85) (P = 0.01) and admission ECG ST depression, which showed a trend towards independent predictive value (OR 2.11) (P = 0.076). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with unstable angina and a normal admission ECG have a good prognosis, while ST segment depression predicts an adverse outcome. Transient myocardial ischaemia detected by continuous ST segment monitoring in such patients receiving optimal medical treatment provides prognostic information additional to that gleaned from the clinical characteristics or the admission ECG. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: We investigated whether the addition of 24 h of continuous vectorcardiography ST segment monitoring (cVST) for an early (within 24 h of the latest episode of angina) determination of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) could provide additional prognostic information in patients with unstable coronary artery disease (UCAD), i.e., unstable angina and non-Q wave myocardial infarction. BACKGROUND: Determination of cTnT at admission and cVST are individually reported to be valuable techniques for the risk assessment of patients with UCAD. METHODS: Two hundred and thirty-two patients suspected of UCAD were studied. Patients were followed for 30 days, and the occurrence of cardiac death or acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were registered. RESULTS: One ST segment episode or more (relative risk [RR] 7.43, p = 0.012), a cTnT level > or = 0.20 microg/liter (RR 3.85, p = 0.036) or prestudy medication with calcium antagonists (RR 3.31, p = 0.041) were found to carry independent prognostic information after multivariate analysis of potential risk variables. By combining a cTnT determination and subsequent cVST for 24 h, subgroups of patients at high (25.8%) (n = 31), intermediate (3.1%) (n = 65) and low risk (1.7%) (n = 117) of death or AMI could be identified. CONCLUSIONS: Twenty-four hours of cVST provides additional prognostic information to that of an early cTnT determination in patients suspected of having UCAD. The combination of biochemical and electrocardiographic methods provides powerful and accurate risk stratification in UCAD. 相似文献

The role of increased myocardial oxygen demand in the pathophysiology of myocardial ischemia occurring during daily activities was evaluated in 50 patients with coronary artery disease and exercise-induced ST segment depression. Each patient underwent ambulatory electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring for ST segment shifts during normal daily activities and symptom-limited bicycle exercise testing with continuous ECG monitoring. All 50 patients had ST depression greater than or equal to 0.1 mV during exercise. A total of 241 episodes of ST depression were noted in the ambulatory setting in 31 patients; only 6% of these were accompanied by angina pectoris. Significant (0.1 mV) ST depression during ambulatory monitoring was preceded by a mean increase in heart rate of 27 +/- 12 beats/min. Patients with ischemia during daily activities developed ST depression earlier during exercise (7.9 +/- 4.4 vs. 14.2 +/- 6.4 min, p less than 0.001) and tended to have significant ECG changes at a lower exercise heart rate and rate-pressure product than did those without ST depression during ambulatory monitoring. In the 31 patients with ischemia during daily activities, the mean heart rate associated with ST depression in the ambulatory setting was closely correlated with the heart rate precipitating ECG changes during exercise testing (r = 0.74, p less than 0.001).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Patients with electrocardiographic (ECG) left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) have repolarization abnormalities of the ST segment that may be confused with an ischemic current of injury. We analyzed the ACTIVATE-SF database, a registry of consecutive emergency department ST-segment elevation (STE) myocardial infarction diagnoses from 2 medical centers. Univariate analysis was performed to identify ECG variables associated with presence of an angiographic culprit lesion. Recursive partitioning was then applied to identify a clinical decision-making rule that maximizes sensitivity and specificity for presence of an angiographic culprit lesion. Seventy-nine patients with ECG LVH underwent emergency cardiac catheterization for primary angioplasty. Patients with a culprit lesion had greater magnitude of STE (3.0 ± 1.8 vs 1.9 ± 1.0 mm, p = 0.005), more leads with STE (3.1 ± 1.6 vs 2.0 ± 1.8 leads, p = 0.002), and a greater ratio of STE to R-S-wave magnitude (median 25% vs 9.2%, p = 0.003). Univariate application of ECG criteria had limited sensitivity and a high false-positive rate for identifying patients with an angiographic culprit lesion. In patients with anterior territory STE, using a ratio of ST segment to R-S-wave magnitude ≥25% as a diagnostic criteria for STE myocardial infarction significantly improved specificity for an angiographic culprit lesion without decreasing sensitivity (c-statistic 0.82), with a net reclassification improvement of 37%. In conclusion, application of an ST segment to R-S-wave magnitude ≥25% rule may augment current criteria for determining which patients with ECG LVH should undergo primary angioplasty. 相似文献
