Sweden: Pretreatment with heparin reduces the risk of coronary artery occlusion in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients without increasing the risk of significant bleeding,.
Italy: A comprehensive and easy-to-use ECG algorithm derived from an extensive literature review can accurately predict the infarct-related artery (IRA) and its occlusion level in all-comers patients.
China: In patients with acute STEMI, the glycemic gap may predict all-cause mortality and MACE within 30 days, a recent journal Atherosclerosis has found. GAPmean is the difference between mean blood.
UK: Patients with extended QRS duration (QRSd) >120 ms concerning non–ST-segment myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) are not at risk for worse in-hospital mortality or major adverse cardiac event (MACE).
