Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a disease that has a high mortality. Usually happens to anyone and regardless of age, both male and female. The purpose of this study was to describe the characteristics of acute myocardial infarction patients hospitalized. This study uses a descriptive design. The variables used in this study were the characteristics of acute myocardial infarction patients consisting of gender, age, education, history of hypertension, history of diabetes mellitus, family history of acute myocardial infarction, blood pressure and pulse frequency. The number of samples used was 35 respondents who analyzed the data using a frequency distribution. The results showed that the characteristics of 35 respondents showed that the majority of AMI patients occurred in men, namely 60%, the majority were aged 56-60, namely 34.3%, the majority had a history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus and also a family history of having AMI.

Background: The severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) is directly related to the quality of glucose control in diabetic patient. Additionally, diabetes is associated with increased mortality following acute myocardial infarction compared to general population. Objectives: To evaluate the association of HbA1c level and severity of CAD, and outcome of non-diabetic patient with STEMI in our hospital. Patients and Methods: 60 consecutives non-diabetic patient with acute ST elevation myocardial infarction were treated with thrombolytic therapy included in the present prospective study. Blood glucose and HbA1c level of all patients were measured within 3 hours of admission. Patient were divided in to 3 groups according to HbA1c level: with cut-off 6.5% as diagnostic criteria of diabetes mellitus according to (American diabetes association) group (1) 6.5%, group (2) 6.5 to 8.5%, group (3) 8.5% and above. In hospital. mortality and morbidities of acute STEMI were compared between groups. Results: The mean age was 63±15 year and mean body mass index was 26. 6±6 kg/m², 24 patients (40%) had history of hypertension, 27 patients (45%) of dyslipidemia, 36 patients (60%) were smoker. We found 45 patients with HbA1c ≤ 6 5%, 5 patients with HbA1c 6.5 -8.5 %, 10 patients with HbA1c ≥ 8.5%. There was strong correlation between admission of HbA1c and admission glucose level (P< 0.001). Infarct size as measured by peak creatinin kinase, was not correlated with HbA1c level. Conclusions: HbA1c is an important risk marker in the absence of history of diabetes mellitus in patients with AMI. The optimal management in these patients may contribute in decrease hospital mortality.

The objective of this study was to determine frequency of admission hyperglycemia and abnormal glucose tolerance at discharge in patients with acute myocardial infarction and no previous history of diabetes mellitus. Methods and results. Data on 1522 patients with acute myocardial infarction and no previous history of diabetes mellitus were analyzed. Before discharge from hospital, standardized oral glucose tolerance test was performed in 197 patients with admission hyperglycemia. Results. Admission hyperglycemia (≥6.1 mmol/L) was determined in half of the patients with acute myocardial infarction: glucose concentration of 6.1–6.99 mmol/L was in 21.5% and ≥7.0 mmol/L in 30.1% of the patients. By using glucose tolerance test, normal glucose metabolism was noted in 57.9% of the patients with admission hyperglycemia; abnormal glucose tolerance was diagnosed newly in more than one-third and glucose concentration of ≥11.1 mmol/L in 10.1% of the patients. Conclusions. Abnormal glucose tolerance is a frequent feature in nondiabetic patients with admission hyperglycemia during acute myocardial infarction, and glucose tolerance test should be considered in all patients with ischemic heart disease for early modification of this risk factor.

Background: Whether a diagnosis of depression after developing an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is linked to a worse prognosis remains a matter of debate after several RCTs of interventions to treat post-AMI depression have yielded negative results. A possible explanation is that depressive symptoms after AMI may be part of the normal adjustment to an adverse life event. A pre-admission history of depression could better identify patients who may derive the most benefit from depression treatment. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether a pre-admission history of depression was associated with a worse post-discharge prognosis among patients with AMI. Methods: This was a secondary analysis conducted among patients included (biennial basis between 1999-2009) in the Worcester Heart Attack Study, an ongoing epidemiologic study examining long-term trends in the clinical outcomes of AMI among residents of the Worcester, MA metropolitan area. The exposure was defined as a physician-recorded diagnosis of depression preceding the index hospitalization for AMI based on the review of hospital medical records (MR). The outcome was all-cause death rates in-hospital and 1-year post discharge. Information regarding demographics, medical history, in-hospital treatment, and discharge status was abstracted from the MR by trained study physicians and nurses. Survival status after discharge was obtained from the MR and from death certificates. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to assess associations between depression and the outcome. Results: This analysis included 5,068 patients (mean age 70 years, 44% women). Approximately 16% of patients had a history of depression pre-admission. No significant differences were found between patients with and without a history of depression with regard to in-hospital mortality (11.5% vs. 9.9%; unadjusted OR=1.18; 95% CI: 0.95, 1.48). At 1 year after discharge all-cause mortality was significantly higher among patients with a pre-admission history of depression (27.5% vs. 18.2%; unadjusted OR=1.71; 95% CI: 1.44, 2.02). While the association between history of depression and in-hospital mortality was largely explained by confounding, the association with 1 year mortality remained significant even after adjustment for demographics, coronary risk factors, co-morbidities, clinical characteristics and medications at discharge (OR=1.57; CI: 1.24, 1.98). Conclusions: In this community-based cohort of patients hospitalized with AMI at different hospitals in central MA, a pre-admission history of depression was an independent predictor of all-cause mortality 1 year after MI. Documentation of a history of depression in the medical record could be a simple tool for cardiologists and primary care physicians to identify high-risk patients who may benefit from depression treatment.

OBJECTIVES: To examine in-hospital mortality after acute myocardial infarction in patients with diabetes mellitus. METHODS: All patients in an 800-bed teaching hospital who had a discharge diagnosis of myocardial infarction, verified by creatine kinase levels at admission, between 1991 and 1993 made up the study population. All 118 such patients who died during this period made up the case group. Two control subjects (n = 236), survivors of the hospitalization, matched by sex, age, and length of hospitalization, were selected randomly for each case. Information on the presence of diabetes mellitus, medical history, and data related to myocardial infarction were obtained through retrospective chart review. RESULTS: The mean age of all subjects in the study was 76 years. Thirty-three percent of the patients in the case group and 31% of the control subjects had a history of diabetes mellitus (odds ratio = 1.04; 95% CI, 0.64-1.70), indicating that diabetes mellitus was not associated with an increased risk of in-hospital death. The adjusted odds ratio was 1.10 (95% CI, 0.48-2.51) in patients with non-insulin-treated diabetes mellitus and 0.80 (95% CI, 0.34-1.86) in insulin-treated patients. Multivariate analysis, with conditional logistic regression, confirmed that known prognostic factors for myocardial infarction, rather than diabetic status, are predictive of in-hospital mortality. CONCLUSIONS: Once the effects of age are accounted for, the risk of in-hospital mortality is not greater in patients with diabetes mellitus than in patients without diabetes; however, diabetes mellitus may be an important factor for long-term survival.

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an established major cardiovascular risk factor associated with increased prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD). Patients with diabetes often have numerous concomitant cardiac risk factors with a higher incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and congestive heart failure (CHF). Patients either with or without a prior history of DM may present with hyperglycemia during AMI. We analysed our population to determine whether admission hyperglycemia was a strong risk factor for in-hospital mortality and morbidity in patients with AMI and may be even stronger than a previous history of diabetes.In-hospital death risk of AMI patients without DM was about 2 to 4 times higher in patients with hyperglycemia than in those without hyperglycemia. Methods: This Prospective observational study was carried out at the National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD), Dhaka. A total number of 200 STsegment elevation AMI patients were enrolled in this study as per inclusion and exclusion criteria. They were subdivided on the basis of admission blood glucose into two groups. Group-1A and 2A were 50 patients with blood glucose <200mg/dl (<11.1mmol/l) and Group-1B and 2B were 50 patients with blood glucose ≥200mg/dl (11.1 ≥mmol/l). The numerical data obtained from the study were analyzed and significance of differences were estimated by using statistical methods. Computer based SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) were used. Results: In the present study mean age of the male and female were 56.10±11.86 and 57.83±13.74 years, p>0.05%. There was no significant difference regarding risk factors and smoking was higher in both group. Regarding inhospital adverse outcome, death was significantly higher in hyperglycemic non diabetic group (p<0.0001). It was two times (56%) higher than diabetic hyperglycemic (28%) group.Cardiogenic shock (66%) and CHF (56%) were also more common in hyperglycemic non diabetic group. Lowest patients (8%) died of AMI without DM with random blood glucose <11.1 mmol/l (controlled). On the other hand highest improvement was in the controlled group (p<0.0001).Multivariate analysis showed Diabetic status with normal blood sugar was a predictor of adverse outcome; but patients with hyperglycemia and no history of diabetes had a worse outcome and were independently associated with significant risk of in-hospital mortality. Age group >65 years and Male sex were also associated with significant in-hospital mortality. Conclusion: Independent of diabetic status, the occurrence of hyperglycemia during AMI is associated with a subpopulation of patients at particularly high risk for an adverse clinical outcome. Even with the highly efficacious treatment strategies currently available, persons presenting with AMI and hyperglycemia are at increased risk for cardiogenic shock and CHF or death in hospital.

Abstract Introduction Influenza vaccination is associated with lower risk of death as well as major adverse cardiovascular events, including acute myocardial infarction (AMI), heart failure and stroke. Purpose The impact of Influenza vaccination on in-hospital mortality in patients with AMI with a prior history of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is largely unknown. We hypothesize that such individuals who develop AMI have better outcomes if they had received influenza vaccine. Methods We analyzed the United States National Inpatient Sample Database from 2010–2014 to identify patients with primary discharge diagnosis of AMI (STEMI, NSTEMI) with a history of prior PCI or CABG. In this cohort, patients with influenza vaccination were identified using ICD-9 code V04.81. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Chi-square test and multivariate regression model controlling for age, gender, race, type of AMI and co-morbidities were employed for statistical analysis. Results A total of 495,619 patients with ACS were identified who had prior PCI or CABG and 6525 had positive influenza vaccination status. Influenza vaccination was independently associated with lower risk of in-hospital mortality in patients with AMI (aOR = 0.253, 95% CI: 0.196–0.328; p&lt;0.001). Conclusion Vaccination against influenza was associated with lower risk of in-hospital mortality in patients with prior PCI or CABG who developed AMI.
