Non-invasive mechanical ventilation for reperfusion myocardial injury prevention after endovascular surgeries in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)
Abstract:Aim. To determine the need for pressure controlled non-invasive mechanical ventilation for reperfusion myocardial injury prevention in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods. The study enrolled 61 patients admitted to the intensive care unit within 6 hours from the debut of chest pain, ST-segment elevation on electrocardiogram and oxygen saturation less than 90%. A percutaneous coronary intervention on an affected coronary artery was performed in all patients 30-90 … Show more
