  1. 1. Studies on malignant ventricular tachyarrhythmias and their treatment with an implantable defibrillator

    Författare :Bengt Sandstedt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Implantable cardioverter defibrillator; ventricular fibrillation; ventricular tachycardia; predischarge test; defibrillation threshold; discrimination; electrogram morphology; aortic stenosis; hypertrophy; noradrenalin;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: To investigate the hemodynamic, metabolic and autonomic effects of ventricular fibrillation per se during maintained circulation. To study the defibrillation threshold (DFT) and efficacy of a new and thinner ICD lead (DSP) compared with the standard lead (C). LÄS MER

  2. 2. On-line vectorcardiography in ischemic heart disease

    Författare :Peter Lundin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Vectorcardiography; ischemia monitoring; coronary artery disease; exercise test; echocardiography; dobutamine; unstable angina pectoris; myocardial infarction; prognosis.;

    Sammanfattning : The clinical usefulness of continuous on-line vector cardiography (VCG) was assessed in 435 patients, admitted to the coronary care unit. The ability of 24-hour VCG monitoring to differentiate patients with or without ischemic heart disease (IHD), to provide long-term prognostic information and to predict results from a predischarge exercise test in patients with unstable angina pectoris or acute myocardial infarction (MI) was evaluated.

  3. 3. Unstable post-infarction ischemia : identification and risk stratification with special emphasis on noninvasive methods

    Författare :Miguel Quintana; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :myocardial infarction; myocardial ischemia; prognosis; exercise test; stress echocardiogaphy. ambulatoryelectrocardiography; heart rate variability.Stockholm 1996;

    Sammanfattning : Although in-hospital mortality after acute myocardial infarction has decreased, long-term mortality is still high. This study tested the prognostic value of detecting residual myocardial ischemia by different techniques in 74 patients recovering from an acute myocardial infarction. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Myocardial ischemia : As a risk indicator after an episode of unstable angina or non-Q-wave myocardial infarction

    Författare :Hans Larsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The diagnostic and prognostic value of different noninvasive tests were evaluated in men below 70 years of age admitted to the coronary care unit (CCU) with unstable coronary artery disease (CAD) i.e unstableangina or non-Q-wave myocardial infarction (Ml). A symptom limited exercise test (ET) was performed before discharge in 740 patients. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Signs and implications of ischemia in unstable coronary artery disease

    Författare :Ingvar Nyman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Signs and implications of ischemia in ECG at rest and at a predischarge exercise test (ET), were assessed in 911 patients with suspected or definite unstable coronary artery disease (CAD) - i.e. unstable angina or non-Q-wave myocardial infarction (MI). LÄS MER
