  • A slightly modified version of the Quality-of-Life after Myocardial Infarction (QLMI) questionnaire developed by Oldridge and colleagues was applied in a self-administered mode to patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in a randomized controlled trial of secondary prevention. Acceptability of the questionnaire was good, with 93% of responders answering all items. Factor analysis suggested three quality-of-life (QL) dimensions which we called 'emotional', 'physical' and 'social'. These differed somewhat from the dimensions proposed by Oldtidge and colleagues. However, a sensitivity analysis showed relative invariance of results to weighting schemes. Scores on our three dimensions were responsive to differences between the treatment groups, and demonstrated construct validity based on associations between the measured QL and variables expected to affect QL. We conclude that the QLMI questionnaire has good potential as an instrument for assessing QL in post-AMI patients and that it can be successfully self-administered.

  • A report of a 79 year old male patient suffering from acute myocardial infarction with Mallory-Weiss tear after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) by emergency medical technician in the swimming pool is presented. Successful percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) was done after appropriate transfusion. The patient survived and discharged without major complications after admitting 11days in the hospital. Importance of CPR in AMI patient is reiterated as complication such as Mallory-Weiss tear may arise.

  • 1995년 1월에서 1995년 3월까지 심근 손상이 의심되는 환자 및 정상대조군에 대한 TnT, 총 LD, 총 CK 및 각 동위효소에 대한 고찰에서 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. Tropohin T는 정상인에서 $0.01{\pm}0.02{\mu}g/L$, 급성심근경색환자에서 최고치는 4.7-24.2 ${\mu}g/L$로 나타났으며, 초기검사에서 정상범위에 속한 환자에서 6시간 후 추적조사에서는 모든 증례에서 1.0 ${\mu}g/L$이상으로 나타났다. 총 LD는 1-3일경에 최고치를 보인 후 점차적으로 감소되었으나, LD1/LD2 비율은 대부분의 환자에서 10일 이상 1.0이상으로 유지되므로, 상대적으로 늦은 시간에 내원한 경우 총 LD와 LD1/LD2 비율이 진단에 유용할 것으로 사료되었다. 총 CK 및 CK-MB인 경우 대부분의 환자에서 3-4일 후 정상 범위로 떨어지므로, 조기진단에는 도움이 되나, 장기간의 추적조사에는 유용성이 없는 것으로 사료되었다. 총 Lactate Dehydrogenase, LD1/LD2 비율, 총 Creatine Kinase, CK-MB와 Troponin T의 상호비교에서 Troponin T가 상대적으로 초기 혹은 장기간 경과된 경우에도 유용한 지표로 사료되었다.

  • The purpose of the study was to investigate effects of Low intensity cardiac rehabilitation, using a treadmill, on the myocardial structure. We identified the effects by analyzing changes in the rats' weights and the results of biopsies. Twenty Sprague-Dawley male rats, 50 weeks old, were randomly divided into the exercise group and the control group. myocardial infarction(MI) was induced by ligaturing their left anterior descending artery. After the acute MI induction, two rats of each group began to fall dead, therefore, eight of each group completed at the end of the experiment. We used treadmills for animals for the exercise group. This exercise group performed 30 minutes of exercise five times per week for six weeks, while the control group did not perform any exercise. No statistically significant differences in weight were found in within group comparison and between group comparison. Furthermore, we observed histological changes in the myocardium using Hematoxylin & Eosin and Masson's trichrome staining in both groups. Low-intensity exercise inhibited myocardial fibrosis, may serve as a reference in the cardiopulmonary field, which plays a role in rehabilitating patients with cardiac disorders, including acute MI.

  • Objectives: The Regional CardioCerebroVascular Center (RCCVC) project was initiated to improve clinical outcomes for patients with acute myocardial infarction or stroke in non-capital areas of Korea. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes and issues identified by the Busan RCCVC project in the treatment of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: Among the patients who were registered in the Korean Registry of Acute Myocardial Infarction for the RCCVC project between 2007 and 2019, those who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for STEMI at the Busan RCCVC were selected, and their medical data were compared with a historical cohort. Results: In total, 1161 patients were selected for the analysis. Ten years after the implementation of the Busan RCCVC project, the median door-to-balloon time was reduced from 86 (interquartile range [IQR], 64-116) to 54 (IQR, 44-61) minutes, and the median symptom-to-balloon time was reduced from 256 (IQR, 180-407) to 189 (IQR, 118-305) minutes (p<0.001). Inversely, the false-positive PCI team activation rate increased from 0.6% to 21.4% (p<0.001). However, the 1-year cardiovascular death and major adverse cardiac event rates did not change. Even after 10 years, approximately 75% of the patients had a symptom-to-balloon time over 120 minutes, and approximately 50% of the patients underwent inter-hospital transfer for primary PCI. Conclusions: A decade after the implementation of the Busan RCCVC project, although time parameters for early reperfusion therapy for STEMI improved, at the cost of an increased false-positive PCI team activation rate, survival outcomes were unchanged.

  • Postinfarction ventricular septal rupture (VSR) is a rare but fatal complication of acute myocardial infarction. In many cases, postinfarction VSR leads to hemodynamic instability and urgent surgical treatment is necessary. Here we describe a case of a patient with right ventricular (RV) dysfunction caused by acute RV infarction and with cardiogenic shock, whose condition improved after development of postinfarction VSR, but the patient died after corrective surgery.

  • 급성심근경색환자에서 증상발병후 병원도착지연이 질병과 사망률에 중요한 관련이 있다. 이 연구에서는 환자의 증상 인식 등 응급의료체계 활성화 이전 단계의 의료기관 내원 지연의 원인을 연구하여, 향후 내원지연 시간 감소를 위해 적절한 보건교육 및 치료의 방향을 찾고자 하였다. 연구 샘플은 2009년 6월에서 9월까지 급성심근경색으로 입원한 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 인구통계, 의료기록 및 임상자료는 병원진료기록를 이용하였으며, 병원전 지연은 6시간이전과 이후로 분류하였다. 급성심근경색증 환자들에서 내원시간 지연에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 고령인 경우, 낮은 사회경제적 위치, 응급의료체계의 이용하지 않고 내원 한 경우와 급성심근경색을 위한 응급처치의 지연등이다. 따라서 사회경제적 위치가 낮은 계층과 고령층에 대한 급성관상동맥 증후군의 증상에 대한 지식을 높이고 증상발생시 의료기관을 빠르게 이용하도록 교육이 필요하다.

  • Ventricular septal rupture (VSR) is a rare but lethal complication of myocardial infarction. The event occurs 2~8 days after an infarction and often precipitates cardiogenic shock. Post myocardial infarction VSR is known for difficult to repair. Especially, Transmural myocardial infarction involved in the posterior VSD area, exposure of the affected site is difficult and postoperative mortality rate is high. We have experienced a case of a 75-year-old female patient who suffered posterior VSD due to acute myocardial infarction, and attained good result by approaching the lesion through right atrial incision and repaired the defect by using patch closure technique.

  • 저자들은 금성심근경색증으로 진단된 36명에서 응급실 도착후에 시행한 Tc-99m seataMIBl 심근 SPECT를 심전도검사와 비교하여 다음의 결과를 얻었다. 1) 좌전하행관동맥과 우관동맥의 폐쇄로 인한 심근 경색증환자 24명 모두가 안정기 Tc-99m sestamibi 심근 SPECT에서 관류결손을 나타냈고, 심전도상에서는 Q파 혹은 ST절의 상승이 관찰되었다. 2) 좌회선관동맥의 폐쇄로 인한 심근경색증환자 7명 모두 안정기 Tc-99m sestamibi 심근 SPECT에서 측벽에 관류결손이 나타났으나, 이상 Q파는 1명에서만 관찰되었고, 6명에서 ST절의 변화가 보였으며, 1명에서는 정상심전도소견을 보였다. 3) 심혈관촬영술을 시행하지 않은 3예중 2예에서는 심전도상 경색의 위치와 심근 SPECT에서의 관류결손부위가 일치하였으나, 나머지 1예에서는 심전도상 LBBB가 보였고 심근SPECT에서는 하벽에 관류결손이 관찰되 었다. 4) 극성지도를 이용하여 구한 손상된 심근의 면적을 전체심근에 대한 백분율로 표시하면 좌전하행관동맥 : $31.17{\pm}18.21%$, 우관동맥 : $31.17{\pm}13.24%$, 좌회선관동맥 : $24.71{\pm}5.94%$ 이었다. 5) 정성적인 분석에서 심근경색의 진단적 예민도는 100%였고, 관동맥 조영술을 시행하여 경색 관련 관동맥을 진단할 수 있었던 31명의 모든 예에서 심근관류 SPECT로 국소화가 가능하였다. 이상의 결과에서 응급으로 시행한 심근관류 SPECT가 심근경색의 진단에 유용하며, 특히 심전도에서 심근경색증의 판단이 어려운 측벽경색이나 좌각차단이 있는 경우에 유용한 방법으로 생각된다.
