Many of the changes seen are reminiscent of LVH with “strain,” and downstream Echo may very well corroborate such a suspicion, but since the ECG isn’t the best tool for definitively establishing the presence of LVH, we must favor a subendocardial ischemia pattern, instead. Type I ischemia. Type II ischemia.
Angiogram No obstructive epicardial coronaryarterydisease Cannot exclude non-ACS causes of troponin elevation including coronary vasospasm, stress cardiomyopathy, microvascular disease, etc. Detailed coronaryartery evaluation not performed. This suggests further severe ischemia.
The study was carried out across 11 centers in the Netherlands, enrolling 741 patients at high risk of both bleeding and ischemia, making it one of the most comprehensive trials in this high-risk population. and 17.1%, respectively (P=0.02 for noninferiority). Principal Investigator, Dr. Pieter C.
His response: “subendocardial ischemia. Smith : It should be noted that, in subendocardial ischemia, in contrast to OMI, absence of wall motion abnormality is common. With the history of Afib, CTA abdomen was ordered to r/o mesenteric ischemia vs ischemic colitis vs small bowel obstruction. Anything more on history?
Hospital Course The patient was taken emergently to the cath lab which did not reveal any significant coronaryarterydisease, but she was noted to have reduced EF consistent with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. The degree of stenosis is not a great predictor of thrombosis, and culprits may not be visible.
Stone, MD Mount Sinai Health System tim.hodson Wed, 04/02/2025 - 15:26 March 31, 2025 Using intravascular imaging (IVI) to guide stent implantation during complex stenting procedures is safer and more effective for patients with severely calcified coronaryarterydisease than conventional angiography, the more commonly used technique.
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), caused by plaque buildup in arterial walls, is one of the leading causes of disability and death worldwide.1,2 1,2 ASCVD causes or contributes to conditions that include coronaryarterydisease (CAD), cerebrovascular disease, and peripheral vascular disease (inclusive of aortic aneurysm).3
indicates inducible ischemia while an FFR above 0.80 excludes ischemia in 90% of cases. FAME study showed that at one year follow up, rate of major adverse coronary events was reduced by approximately 30% by routinely measuring FFR. There is a strong correlation between FFR and inducible myocardial ischemia. in the study.
Background Untreated multivessel disease (MVD) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has been linked to a higher risk of recurrent ischemia and death within one year. The immediate non-IRA PCI is associated with a significantly lower occurrence of unplanned ischemia-driven PCI (OR 0.60; confidence interval [CI] 0.44–0.83)
It is possible there is microvascular dysfunction producing residual transmural ischemia. But this is most common when there is prolonged ischemia, and this patient had the fastest reperfusion imaginable! Circumstances attending 100 sudden deaths from coronaryarterydisease with coroners necropsies. link] Park, J.,
