Key concepts in MI management • Early diagnosis • Early reperfusion • Management of complications
Steps to diagnosis • Clinical evaluation • ECG • Cardiac enzymes • Echocardiographic evaluation • Coronary angiogram
Symptoms of Acute MI • Steady, squeezing pressure or burning pain in the centre of the chest that lasts two minutes or more • Pain that radiates from the centre of the chest down one (usually left) or both arms and to shoulders, neck, jaw or back • Dizziness, light-headedness or fainting • Nausea or vomiting • “A sense of anxiety or impending doom”
Chest pain without ECG changes IS HE INFARCTING ?
How an Echo helps ? • RWMA • EF • Complications
Pillars of the ICCU concept • Continuous ECG monitoring & arrhythmia alarms • CPR & external defibrillation • Clustering of MI patients where personnel, drugs & equipment are available • Trained nurses to initiate resuscitation

Aim of revascularisation Coronary recanalization • Prompt • Complete • Sustained
Golden Hour Term used in emergency medicine which refers to the first sixty minutes after an accident or the onset of acuteillness. The victim's chances of survival are greatest if he or she can be transported to a hospital within the Golden Hour.
The ‘Golden hour’ ('Boersma et al 1996')
Reducing delay is our major challenge • Delay in context : • Delay thrombolysis by 1 hour = 21 deaths/1000 patients in one month (and probably as many again die in 2 years) • Rawles 1998
How to establish reperfusion • Thrombolysis • Coronary Angioplasty ( PTCA)
AAC/AHA Guidelines for Thrombolysis • All patients who have symptoms suggesting AMI • Within 12 hours of onset of symptoms • ECG changes of AMI (STEMI, new BBB) • No contraindications
Thrombolysis : What to give ? • Streptokinase : 1.5MU in 100 ml. 5% Dextrose/ 0.9% saline over 60 mins. • tPA : 15 mg bolus , followed by 50mg over 60 mins.& residual 35 mg over 30 mins. • Reteplase : 10 IU bolus, then 10 IU after 30 mins. • Tenecteplase : 30-50mg IV bolus • Door-to-needle time – 30 min
Problems with thrombolysis • Only 30 % pts.recieve it • Patency rate 66% (Tenecteplase) 63% (Reteplase) ; 54% (tPA); ! 30% (STK) • 30% reocclude in 3 months • Not for haemodynamically unstable pts. • Residual stenosis

2008 guidelines ACC/AHA • The use of prehospital 12-lead electrocardiography is encouraged to increase the efficiency of care for STEMI.
