Abstract:
Myocardial Infarction with ST segment elevation (STEMI)
is a serious disease with a great incidence and a high mortality,
caused by severe complications. Acute Myocardial
Infarction (AMI) complications are divided in: mechanical,
hemodynamic and electric disorders, which negatively
influence the prognosis of the disease evolution. Early
diagnosis of STEMI with PCI management improve the
outcome of these patients with a lower mortality, a higher
life expectancy and a better quality of life. In our study
we have established that STEMI is more frequent in men
(71.3%). These patients had had conduction complications
(52.7%), with a prevalence of atrial fibrillation (22.8%)
and sinusal tachycardia (8.4%); mechanic complications
were observed in 13.9% with the predominance of the free
wall rupture (10.8%); hemodynamic complications represented
by Killip III (43.6%) and Killip II (38.3%) class. The
mortality of the patients caused by STEMI was in 11.4%
cases caused predominantly by mechanical complications
in 73.8 % cases.
