AbstrakSindrom Koroner Akut (SKA) merupakan spektrum dari penyakit arteri koroner yang tidak stabil, mulai dari angina pektoris tidak stabil sampai infark miokardium. SKA terbagi atas Unstable Angina Pectoris (UAP), ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), Non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menentukan hubungan antara kadar gula darah saat masuk rumah sakit dan jenis SKA. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah cross sectional. Penelitian dilakukan di Instalasi Rekam Medik RS Dr. M. Djamil Padang dengan mengambil data pasien SKA dari Januari 2012 sampai Desember 2012. Hasil penelitian ini didapatkan jenis SKA dengan gula darah yang tidak normal dari 60 sampel, yaitu: UAP 25%, NSTEMI 35%, STEMI 40%. Hasil pengolahan data dapat dilihat bahwa nilai p = 0,592 yang artinya tidak terdapat hubungan yang bermakna antara kadar gula darah saat masuk rumah sakit dengan jenis SKA. Hal ini terjadi mungkin karena terlalu sedikitnya sampel dan banyak sampel kriteria ekslusi dalam pencarian data. Sebaiknya dalam penelitian yang akan datang dapat memperbanyak sampel.Kata kunci: sindrom koroner akut, kadar gula darah, hubungan kadar gula darah dengan SKA AbstractAcute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is a spectrum of coronary artery disease that is not stable, ranging from unstable angina to myocardial infarction. Acute Coronary Syndrome is divided into Unstable Angina Pectoris (UAP), ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between blood sugar levels when admitted to hospital and Acute Coronary Syndrome type by using cross sectional study. The study was conducted at the Medical Records RS Dr. M. Djamil Padang. The ACS data collected from January 2012 until December 2012. The results of this study was found the SKA with abnormal blood sugar of 60 samples, i.e. UAP25%, NSTEMI35%, 40% STEMI. On the results of data processing can be seen that the value of p=0.592, which means there is no significant correlation between blood sugar levels upon hospital admission and the type of SKA. No relationship because of little samples and exclusion criteria. The further study has to used more samples.Keywords: acute coronary syndrome, blood sugar levels, blood sugar relationship with acute coronary syndrome

The coronary care unit by Santa Izabel Hospital (Salvador, Bahia, Brazil) made a comparison of admitted patients with coronary disease cases admitted between two equivalent periods ranging from April through July in 2019 and 2020. There was a striking reduction in 2020 of cases of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (39%); non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (19%); and unstable angina pectoris (21%). This occurred in parallel with what happened in many parts of the world and hampered offering the best treatment strategy to these patients with an acute coronary syndrome such as invasive stratification and myocardial revascularization.

Background: One third of all deaths worldwide are attributed to acute coronary syndrome. The thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction Risk Score is used to assess the risk of mortality and major adverse outcomes in this population. This study aimed to assess and compare the morbidity and mortality differences rate between Saudi and non-Saudi patients with acute coronary syndrome. Methods: This retrospective study was conducted at the coronary care unit of King Abdulaziz University Hospital. All acute coronary syndrome cases were enrolled and assessed using the thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction Risk Score. Results: 242 cases were divided as 98 ST-elevation myocardial infarction cases and 144 unstable angina/non ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Among ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients 21 were Saudi patients and 77 were non-Saudi patients with the median thrombolysis in myocardial infarction risk score for Saudi was 5 and for non-Saudi 3.5 (P = 0.6). Unstable angina/non ST-elevation myocardial infarction cases had 47 Saudi patients and 94 non-Saudi patients with the median score was 4.2 for Saudis versus 4.5 for non-Saudis (P = 0.4). Conclusion: Overall thrombolysis in myocardial infarction were higher in Saudis with ST-elevation myocardial infarction than non-Saudis, and higher for non-Saudis with unstable angina/non ST-elevation myocardial infarction than Saudis. However, the difference was not significant (p = 0.6, p = 0.4). The 30 days and one-year mortality as well as major adverse cardiac events were similar between the two groups in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (P = 0.4 and 0.7) and unstable angina/non ST-elevation myocardial infarction population (P = 0.3 and 0.3).

Background and aims: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS), which comprises acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction and unstable angina is a major health problem and represents a large number of hospitalizations annually worldwide. We aim to describe pattern of the ACS admission and in-hospital mortality at tertiary national heart centre of the country. Methods: A hospital database was used to analyze all 7424 patients admitted in coronary care unit of the centre for ACS from September 2001 till December 2012. We evaluated trend of ACS admission and in-hospital mortality. Results: Five thousand three hundred ninety one (72.6%) were male and two thousand thirty three (27.4%) were female. Patient of 21years to 98 years were admitted for ACS .Four thousand five hundred and ninety nine(61.9%) patient were admitted due to ST elevation myocardial infarction, whereas one thousand nine hundred and thirteen (25.8%) were admitted for Unstable angina and nine hundred twelve (12.3%) were admitted for Non ST elevation myocardial infarction. In-hospital mortality was 5.74% for acute coronary syndrome. There was significant difference in in-hospital mortality between ST elevation myocardial infarction (7.76%), Non ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (3.61%) and Unstable Angina (1.88%).There is a gradual increase in Primary Percutaneous Coronary intervention as a mode of reperfusion therapy whereas there is a decrease in the rate of thrombolysis. Conclusion: Our study provides us some important information about the trend and in-hospital mortality rate in national heart centre. Though it is a single centre study can provide us the insight of the ACS outcome. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jaim.v3i1.10698 Journal of Advances in Internal Medicine 2014;03(01):23-26

Abstract Background Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a common manifestation of cardiovascular disease. Inconsistent trends have been reported in the management and outcomes of the three main categories of ACS (ST-elevation myocardial infarction [STEMI], non ST-elevation myocardial infarction [NSTEMI] and unstable angina [UA]). The aims of this study were to evaluate recent trends in the incidence, invasive management and case fatality of these ACS subtypes in New Zealand. Methods All ACS hospitalisations between 2006–2016 were identified from routinely collected national data, and categorised into STEMI, NSTEMI, UA, and unspecified myocardial infarction (MI). For each ACS subtype, annual hospitalisation and coronary procedure rates, 28-day and 1-year fatality rates were calculated and trends tested using Poisson regression adjusted for age and sex. Results There were 188,264 ACS admissions, of which 16.0% were STEMI, 54.5% NSTEMI, 25.7% UA and 3.8% MI unspecified. During this period, the incidence of all ACS subtypes fell, STEMI by 3.4%/y, NSTEMI by 5.9%/year and UA by 8.5%/year. There was also a rise in the proportion of ACS patients receiving angiography and revascularisation. Rates of percutaneous coronary intervention rose for STEMI, NSTEMI and UA, but rates of coronary artery bypass grafting increased only for NSTEMI and UA. Case fatality at 28 days and 1 year was higher for STEMI than NSTEMI, and lowest for UA. Over the period there was a relative 1.6%/y decline in one-year case fatality for NSTEMI (p<0.001), but no significant change for STEMI and UA. Conclusions The observed declines in the incidence of all ACS subtypes is reassuring, as is the increase in the rate of revascularisation among these patients. The finding that case fatality declined in NSTEMI patients but not in STEMI and UA patients, despite an increase in invasive management in all groups, require further investigation.
