"Despite improvements in the outcome of patients with acute myocardial infarction during the last three decades, room for improvement exists in the elderly patients and in patients who are not candidates for throm-bolysis. Statistical analysis of randomized trials of magnesium in myocardial infarction reveals a gradient of response. When higher risk patients were enrolled, a greater benefit of magnesium was observed; progressively smaller benefits of magnesium occur as control group mortality approached 7%, at which point no benefit was detected. Although the ISIS-4 study enrolled more than 58,000 patients, no reduction in mortality was seen, probably as a result of low control group mortality and relatively late administration of magnesium. Because the potential benefits of magnesium in myocardial infarction remains an open question, additional trials are needed before this inexpensive and early-administered therapy is prematurely cast aside."

"Tuburlensi laju jantung heart rate tuberlence {HRT} baru-baru ini dianggap sebagai prediktor terbaru paling kuat untuk terjadinya kematian mendadak (sadden cardiac death (SCD) melebihi prediktor lain yang telah ada sebelumnya."

"Turbulensi laju jantung (heart rate turbulence [HRT]) baru-baru ini dianggap sebagai prediktor terbaru paling kuat untuk terjadinya kematian mendadak (sudden cardiac death [SCD]) melebihi prediktor lain yang telah ada sebelumnya. Pasien penyakit jantung koroner yang menjalani reperfusi koroner ternyata memberikan hasil HRT lebih baik dan hal ini mencerminkan pulihnya respon baroreseptor.Penelitian ini akan membandingkan nilai turbulence onset (TO) dan turbulence slope(TS) pada dua jenis reperfusi (PCI dan fibrinolitik) Subjek menjalani monitoring EKG selama 24 jam setelah dilakukan revaskularisasi. TO ditentukan dengan cara mengukur perubahan relatif dua interval RR irama sinus setelah ekstrasistol ventrikel dan dua RR interval terakhir sebelum ekstrasistol ventrikel. TS dihitung dengan dengan mengukur slope maksimum yang dibuat tiap 5 buah RR interval. Terdapat 13 pasien (usia rata-rata 56 + 9 tahun) yang memenuhi syarat untuk ikut dalam penelitian. Sepuluh pasien menjalani fibrinolitik dan tiga pasien menjalani PCI. Terdapat perbedaan bermakna nilai TO antara kelompok PCI dan fibrinolitik (-3,3 + 1,7 % vs -0,2 + 0,9 %; P=0,03). Terdapat kecenderungan kelompok PCI memberikan nilai TS yang lebih baik dibanding kelompok fibrinolitik, walaupun secara statistik tidak signifikan ( 7,7 + 4,4 msec/RR interval vs 3,4 + 2,6 msec/RR interval; P = 0,056). Disimpulkan bahwa subjek dengan STEMI akut yang menjalani PCI mempunyai nilai TO yang lebih baik dibanding subjek yang menjalani terapi fibrinolitik.

Heart rate turbulence (HRT) as novel predictor of sudden cardiac death were superior to all other presently available indicators. HRT significantly was improves after successful reperfusion reflecting rapid restoration of baroreceptor response. We investigated turbulence onset (TO) and turbulence slope (TS) values among patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) underwent revascularization by means of primary PCI or fibrinolytic. We hypothesized that the values of TO and TS were different in two kinds of revascularization treatment. The subjects underwent 24 hours ECG recording after revascularization therapy. TO was quantified by the relative change of the first two sinus RR intervals following a ventricular premature beat (VPB) and the last two sinus RR intervals before the VPB. TS was quantified by the maximum positive slope of a regression line assessed over any sequence of five subsequent sinus rhythm RR intervals within the first two sinus rhythm intervals after a VPB. Thirteen patients (mean of age 56 + 9 years old) who underwent revascularization treatment of acute STEMI were eligible as subject of this study.Ten patients underwent fibrinolytic therapy and three patients underwent primary PCI. TO value was significantly different between PCI group and fibrinolytic group (-3.3 + 1.7 % vs -0.2 + 0.9 % ; P=0.03). The Primary PCI group has better outcome on turbulence slope value (TS) than fibrinolytic group but not significance (7.7 + 4.4 msec/RR interval vs 3.4 + 2.6 msec/RR interval; P = 0.056). In conclusion, TO was better in acute STEMI patient undergone PCI compare to that undergone fibrinolytic therapy."

"Telah dilakukan penelitian retrospektif terhadap pasien infark miokard akut (IMA) yang dirawat di ICCU RSUPN Dr Cipto Mangunkusumo, Jakarta antara Januari 1994 sampai Desember 1999. Dari 513 pasien yang dirawat dengan IMA, 227 pasien adalah usia lanjut, di mana 35,2 % dari mereka adalah wanita. Sebagian besar IMA usia lanjut mengeluh nyeri dada yang khas seperti pada pada kelompok usia muda. Pasien IMA usia lanjut cenderung terlambat datang ke rumah sakit dan lebih banyak menderita IMA gelombang Q. Faktor risiko diabetes melitus dan hipertensi lebih sering dijumpai pada usia lanjut. Prevalensi fibrilasi atrial dan mortalitas lebih tinggi pada usia lanjut. (Med J Indones 2003; 12: 229-35)

A retrospective study were performed in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) that hospitalized in ICCU Cipto Mangunkusumo hospital, Jakarta during the period of January 1994 until Decmber 1999. There were 513 patients hospitalized with MCI, 227 patients (44.2%) were classified as elderly, and 35.2% of them were female. Most of the elderly AMI patients reported typical chest pain just like their younger counterparts. Elderly AMI patients tend to come later to the hospital, and more Q-wave myocardial infarction were identified compared to non-Q-wave myocardial infarction. Risk factors of diabetes mellitus and hypertension were more common among the elderly. The prevalence of atrial fibrillation and the mortality rate were higher among elderly AMI patients.

"Infark miokard akut (IMA) telah menjadi sebab utama kematian di negara Barat maupun di Indonesia. Keterlambatan diagonis dan tatalaksana dini yang salah seringkali mengakibatkan kegagalan reperfusi dengan trombolitik. Dokter umum sebagai lini kesehatan pertama harus dibekali dengan ketrampilan mendiagnosis dan juga menangani IMA. Dalam tulisan ini dilaporkan kasus gagal terapi trombolitik pada pria usia 47 tahun setelah tujuh jam mengalami nyeri dada angina, yang telah sebelumnya ditangani oleh dokter umum.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has been the leading cause of death in Western countries, as well as in Indonesia. Delay in diagnosis and incorrect early management often result in failure of thrombolytic reperfusion. General practitioner (GP) as the primary care, needs to be equipped with the ability to diagnose and moreover to manage AMI. A case of fail thrombolytic management in a 47 years old man after seven hours of angina typical chest pain, after previously managed by GP, is being reported. (Med J Indones 2005; 14:249-52)"

"Angka kematian pada pasien dengan infark miokardium akut (IMA) telah menurun secara signifikan oleh karena strategi terapi reperfusi saat ini. Terapi reperfusi dapat berakibat pada cedera reperfusi. Oleh karena itu, tatalaksana pada pasien ini menghadapi tantangan baru dalam hal diagnosis dan tatalaksana gagal jantung, identifikasi kondisi iskemia, estimasi keperluan antikoagulan, dan penilaian risiko kardiovaskular secara menyeluruh. Ilustrasi kasus ini akan menunjukkan pengaruh magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) kardiak dalam penilaian patofisiologi IMA pada era terapi reperfusi.

AbstractMortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has decreased significantly and appears to be the result of current reperfusion therapeutic strategies. Reperfusion itself may develop into reperfusion injury. Therefore, management of these patients poses several challenges, such as diagnosing and managing heart failure, identifying persistent or inducible ischaemia, estimating the need for anticoagulation, and assessing overall cardiovascular risk. This case presentation will demonstrate the impact of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the assessment of the pathophysiology of AMI inthe current reperfusion era. Cardiac MRI can provide a wide range of clinically useful information which will help clinicians to manage and choose specific therapeutic strategies for AMI patients."

"Evidence from epidemiologic studies suggests that periodontal diseases may exert a weak to moderate influence on the severity and course of coronary heart disease. The aim of this study was to investigate whether an association between chronic oral infections and the presence of an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) exists. A total of 248 patients after AMI and 249 healthy controls were recruited for this study. The oral assessment included caries frequency (DMFT indices), number of teeth, probing pocket depths, bleeding on probing, clinical attachment level, as well as radiographs to diagnose apical lesions. The medical examination included a blood analysis, e.g. the determination of the serum concentration of C-reactive protein (CRP). The data analysis showed statistically significant differences between AMI patients and the controls with regard to number of missing teeth (p = 0.001), DMFT index (p = 0.001) and presence of apical lesions of endodontic origin (p = 0.001). Logistic regression showed that the probability of having lesions of endodontic origin was with an odds ratio of 1.54 (95 % CI 1.10-2.16; p = 0.012) considerably higher in the AMI patient group. Likewise, the AMI patients had with an odds ratio of 1.21 (95 % CI 1.14-1.28; p < 0.001) a higher number of missing teeth. The data from the blood analysis, in particular the CRP values, showed no significant correlation with the number of apical lesions. The results of the present study underline that patients, who have experienced a myocardial infarction, had more missing teeth and a higher number of inflammatory processes, especially of endodontic origin, than healthy patients."
