Acute Myocardial Infarction Dr. Md.Jahangir Alam Medical Officer Zia Heart Foundation Hospital And Research Institute,Dinajpur
Myocardial infarction Myocardial infarction is defined as a clinical event caused by myocardial ischemia in which there is evidence of myocardial injury or necrosis. MI occurs as a result of complete occlusion of a coronary artery due to the formation of occlusive thrombosis.
Treatment- <6 hours-PCI= Thrombolysis <6 hours with cardiogenic shock,hypotension -PCI <6 hours with hypotension,no pci center -iv crystalloids(fluid challenge) then thrombolysis with cardiac monitoring If there is no response with fluid challenge then- Dobutamine (improves rv stroke volume,promotes lv function) In presence of bradycardia-inj atropine In presence of CHB-Emergency TPM
Drugs should be avoided in RVMI:- Diuretics Nitrates Narcotics Beta blockers (Due to they decrease intravascular volume or produce vesodilatation)
Complications Early:-Arrhythmia (Vt,vf,AV block) Cardiogenic shock Acute pericarditis Mitral regurgitation Rupture of intervenricular septum Late:-Ventricular Aneurysm Dressler’s syndrome Post infarct
