  1. 1. Early Risk Stratification, Treatment and Outcome in ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction

    Författare :Erik Björklund; Bertil Lindahl; Lars Wallentin; Ulf Näslund; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine; Acute myocardial infarction; Thrombolysis; Troponin; Electrocardiography; Natriuretic peptide; Prognosis; Prehospital thrombolysis; Treatment delay; Mortality; Registry; Clinical trial; Medicin; Dermatology and venerology; clinical genetics; internal medicine; Dermatologi och venerologi; klinisk genetik; invärtesmedicin;

    Sammanfattning : We evaluated, in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with thrombolytics, admission Troponin T (tnT), ST-segment resolution and admission N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) for early risk stratification as well as time delays and outcome in real life patients according to prehospital or in-hospital thrombolytic treatment. Also, baseline characteristics, treatments and outcome in patients enrolled in the ASSENT-2 trial in Sweden and in patients not enrolled were evaluated. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The fight against time in prehospital cardiac arrest - a true medical emergency

    Författare :Johan Holmén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiac arrest; cardiopulmonary resuscitation; prehospital; out-of-hospital;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Background: The chances of survival after an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) are one in ten. The majority of survivors have no or relatively mild neurological sequelae. Interventions are time critical and well-timed management is challenging. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Cerebrospinal fluid infusion methods : development and validation on patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus

    Författare :Nina Andersson; Anders Eklund; Karin Wårdell; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Infusion test; idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus; outflow conductance; outflow resistance; intracranial pressure; cerebrospinal fluid dynamics; medical informatics; medicinsk informatik;

    Sammanfattning : Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) infusion tests can be used to estimate the dynamic properties of the CSF system. Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) is a syndrome signified by a disturbance to the CSF system, where the cause is unknown and the diagnosis is difficult to determine. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Improving early diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome and resource utilisation in acute chest pain patients

    Författare :Jakob Lundager Hansen; Lund Medicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : A high volume of acute chest pain patients, poor early diagnosis and high admission rates result in high resource utilization. In 1000 consecutively chest pain patients the majority of the direct cost was found due to admission time. The difference between mean cost of an “ACS-rule-out” admission and a discharge from the ED was 6.2 kSEK (9. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Acute myocardial infarction : early diagnosis and the prognostic value of ECG and echocardiography

    Författare :Josephine Muhrbeck; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a main cause of death. Despite vast improvements in management and treatment strategies over the past decades, morbidity and mortality after an AMI remains high. LÄS MER
