The Incidence and Risk Factors of Malignant Ventricular Arrhythmia in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction
2012, 40 (9):
895-898 .
Objective:To explore the incidence and risk factors of malignant ventricular arrhythmia in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Methods:A retrospective study was performed on 650 patients with acute myocardial infarction from January 2007 to June 2011. According to the Holter outcomes,the patients with acute myocardial infarction were divided into malignant ventricular arrhythmia(MVA) group and non-MAV group.Then incidence rate of MVA were measured and age, gender, history of smoking, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, history of old myocardial infarction, creatine kinase, creatine kinase MB, Troponin I, white blood cell count, neutrophil count ,platelet count, hemoglobin, triglycerides, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein, high density lipoprotein, potassium, low blood potassium, blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, blood glucose, Killip class, corrected Tpeak-Tend interval, heart rate variability, opening of infarct-related artery by direct PCI, ultrasound results of convalescence were recorded and determined by univariate correlation analysis and Logistic regression analysis.Results: Among the 650 patients, MAV occurred in 216 patients and the incidence of MAV was 33.2%. Logistic regression analysis showed that creatine kinase, Troponin I, low blood potassium, Killip class, corrected Tpeak-Tend interval, heart rate variability,not opening of infarct-related artery by direct PCI were risk factors of MAV.Conclusion: The incidence of malignant ventricular arrhythmia in patients with acute myocardial infarction was higher and was a major cause of death, Adequate clinical attention should be paid to patients who have the above risk factors of MAV.
