A specific subset of acute myocardial infarction was defined and named 'the hypertensive-hyperkinetic-coronary-active' subgroup. This subgroup included patients with acute myocardial infarction without pump failure or hypovolemia who continued to have hypertension and tachycardia, after relief of
Quantitation of perfusion defect size using tomographic imaging with technetium-99m-hexakis-2-methoxy isobutyl isonitrile was performed at the time of hospital discharge in 32 patients with a first myocardial infarction who underwent successful coronary reperfusion within 8 h of the onset of chest
Three patients with hemichorea/hemiballismus/hemidystonia caused by discrete contralateral infarction of the corpus striatum are presented. The infarcts were all small on CT or MRI brain scan and were lacunar in type. Small discrete infarction of basal ganglionic structures allows such adventitious
One-hundred-and-fifty-four consecutive patients were treated with intravenous and intracoronary streptokinase within 3 h of the onset of acute myocardial infarction. Left ventricular function was determined from contrast ventriculograms obtained in the acute phase and at follow-up at 28 (15-37) days
We assessed the contractility of the contralateral wall on 2-dimensional echocardiography in 50 patients with an initial ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction who underwent coronary angiography. Compensatory hyperkinesis, which we defined as a fractional thickening of >/=60% in the contralateral
Changes in the rate of coronary venous flow through the affected area under the effect of intravenous jet injections of propranolol, 0.1 mg per 1 kg body weight, were assessed in 18 patients of the hyperkinetic central hemodynamic type during acute myocardial infarction. In the first group of
The time course and clinical significance of hyperkinetic wall motion (HWM) in a noninfarcted area in direct percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) has not been clearly demonstrated in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The objectives of this study were to examine the
The long-term prognostic importance of hyperkinesia is unknown following an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The American Society of Echocardiography recommends that hyperkinesia should not be included in calculation of wall motion index (WMI). The objective of the present study was to determine
A 51-year-old man with preexistent lacunar infarctions in the basal ganglia and pons developed complex involuntary movements of his right arm 1 day after a purely cortical-subcortical ischemic infarction in the territory of the left middle cerebral artery sparing the basal ganglia. The movements
The trend in blood plasma adrenaline, noradrenaline, renin and parameters of central hemodynamics were studied in randomized sample of 67 patients with uncomplicated macrofocal myocardial infarction with a hyperkinetic syndrome. To 32 patients obsidan was administered intravenously (0.1 mg/kg), then
120 postmyocardial infarction patients with hyperkinetic hemodynamics have taken iodine-bromine baths, received beta-adrenoblockers and undergone electric sleep. The treatment effects on central hemodynamics, vegetative tone and collagen formation allowed the authors to develop a procedure combining
The present study was designed to assess the antiarrhythmic Prajmalium Bitartrate (PB) efficacy in the long term treatment of 22 patients with recent myocardial infarction and persistent, frequent, polimorphous, repetitive (two or more in a row) ventricular premature complexes (VPCs). VPCs were
To assess the prognostic significance of supraventricular tachyarrhythmias (SVTA) during acute myocardial infarction (AMI), we studied 388 patients with first AMI, without ventricular preexcitation or chronic atrial fibrillation. The prevalence of SVTA was 14% (56/388), including atrial fibrillation
A placebo-controlled single-blind study was performed to evaluate the efficacy of oral propafenone on stable potentially malignant ventricular tachyarrhythmias in 13 patients who had suffered a myocardial infarction two months or longer before the trial. All patients exhibited at a 24 hour Holter
An 82-year-old female was admitted to the catheterization laboratory for investigation of acute antero-lateral myocardial infarction with evidence of severe left ventricular dysfunction. Angiographically, she was found to have normal coronary arteries, with the exception of the presence of
