infarction

Introduction
Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI)
• Acute myocardial infarction
(AMI) is the most serious
manifestation of cardiovascular
diseases
• It is defined as the destruction
of myocardial tissue resulting
from insufficient supply of
oxygen to the heart muscle

Atherosclerosis and trombi
formation
• The atherosclerosis is
responsible for the
majority of myocardial
infarction.
• There is formation of
thrombi in coronary
arteries

Diagnosis
• Symptoms and alert
• ECG alterations (ST-elevation)
4
Symptoms and alert
• Identifying AMI signals (retrosternal discomfort or
dyspnea, for example) with subsequent activation of the
emergency number is the first step towards a speedy and
effective action leading to a reduction of injuries and
consequent harm to the patient.

ECG
6
• An electrocardiogram is a
noninvasive transthoracic
graphic produced by an
electrocardiograph, which
records the electrical activity
of the heart over time.
• The typical ST segment
duration is usually around
0.08 sec (80 ms). An
elevation of >1mm and
longer than 80 milliseconds
may indicate myocardial
infarction.

Treatment
• In acute myocardial infarction with ST-segment
elevation the best treatment is reperfusion in the first
2 hours after the onset of symptoms.

Study Aims and Question
PHT
Develop a study that could lead us to an answer to the question:
8
Is PHT beneficial in terms of
morbidity and mortality on patients
with ST-elevation myocardial
infarction?
Objectives
• Determine if pre-hospital thrombolysis is associated
with reduction in early and late (1 year) cardiovascular
mortality in patients with ST elevation myocardial
infarction.
• Evaluate if pre-hospital trombolysis is associated with
prognosis improvement such as: hospital stay, left
ventricular ejection fraction, reenfartion rates,
reenfartion readmission rates.
• Determine if pre-hospital thrombolysis performed by
non medical teams is associated with and increase in
complication rates.

Prehospital thrombolysis in a rural community: short- and long-term
survival.

In order to assess the feasibility and outcome of using prehospital thrombolysis
in acute myocardial infarction in a rural community, we performed an open
randomized study of patients with symptoms of acute myocardial infarction of
less than 6 hours. One hundred and forty-five patients with acute myocardial
infarction were allocated to receive IV streptokinase prehospital by means of a
mobile coronary care unit (MCCU) (n = 43) or to receive IV streptokinase in
hospital (n = 102). The mean delay time to treatment was 138 minutes (MCCU
group) and 172 minutes (hospital group) (p less than 0.02). Reperfusion time was
88 minutes for the MCCU group and 92 minutes for the hospital group. Mortality
at 14 days was 2.3% for the MCCU group and 11.7% for the hospital group (p less
than 0.05). Six month mortality was 4.9% for the MCCU group and 17.3% for the
hospital group (p = 0.03). Mortality at 1 year was 6.1% for the MCCU group and
20.0% for the hospital group (p = 0.04). There were no significant adverse events
in either treatment group. Thus, prehospital thrombolysis by streptokinase is
feasible and allows significant reduction in the delay time to treatment initiation.
There are encouraging improvements in both short- and long-term survival with
no apparent reduction in safety profile.
