[Determining the area of myocardial damage by the method of sectorial scanning and its value for prognosis of the outcome of acute myocardial infarction].
The authors describe a method for measuring the myocardial injury area, and show the prognostic value of the latter based on examination of 100 patients admitted to the Cardioresuscitation Department with a diagnosis of acute transmural or large-focal myocardial infarction. The lifetime evaluation data of the IM size by means of two-dimensional echocardiography were in a good agreement (r = 0.85) with the morbid anatomy data. Determination of the injury size and ejection was found to be the most informative method for predicting an outcome of acute myocardial infarction. The use of the different combinations of the prognostic signs expands the possibilities of the given method and makes it possible to screen patients with a high risk of a lethal outcome and development of complications on the basis of the primary care at the early disease stage.
