Abstract 4142231: Relationship between serum interleukin-6 levels and severity of STEMI undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention

Circulation

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A4142231-A4142231, November 12, 2024. Background:Little is known about the clinical relevance of interleukin (IL)-6 and the severity of patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). All information about clinical and paraclinical parameters was recorded.

Abstract 4125093: Association of Systemic Inflammatory Index and Systemic Inflammatory Response Index with Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome Who Had Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Circulation

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A4125093-A4125093, November 12, 2024. Considering their multidirectional effect on atherosclerosis, new inflammatory biomarkers integrating various leukocyte subgroups have been proposed to calculate the systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) and systemic inflammatory index (SII).Aim:The

Is OMI an ECG Diagnosis?

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

I sent this to the Queen of Hearts So the ECG is both STEMI negative and has no subtle diagnostic signs of occlusion. Non-STEMI guidelines call for “urgent/immediate invasive strategy is indicated in patients with NSTE-ACS who have refractory angina or hemodynamic or electrical instability,” regardless of ECG findings.[1]

7 steps to missing posterior Occlusion MI, and how to avoid them

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

Step 1 to missing posterior MI is relying on the STEMI criteria. A prospective validation of STEMI criteria based on the first ED ECG found it was only 21% sensitive for Occlusion MI, and disproportionately missed inferoposterior OMI.[1] But it is still STEMI negative. A 15 lead ECG was done (below). In a study last year, 14.4%

Occlusion myocardial infarction is a clinical diagnosis

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

Recall from this post referencing this study that "reciprocal STD in aVL is highly sensitive for inferior OMI (far better than STEMI criteria) and excludes pericarditis, but is not specific for OMI." The ESC states that patients with suspected ACS should go to the cath lab in <2 hours "regardless of ECG or biomarker evidence of MI!!"

46 year old with chest pain develops a wide complex rhythm -- see many examples

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

Frick -- one wonders about the diagnosis of unstable angina in a patient with significantly elevated biomarkers which would certainly have been rising on repeat measurement.) The receiving emergency physician consulted with interventional cardiology who stated there was no STEMI. Is there STEMI? Circulation , 63 (2), 333–340.
