Key result
A natural history study evaluated the prevalence of ventricular arrhythmias in the first 12 hours of acute myocardial infarction in 38 patients, but the abstract reports no quantitative results.
Why the study?
Does the prevalence of ventricular arrhythmias in the first 12 hours of acute myocardial infarction differ between patients who develop primary ventricular fibrillation and those who do not?
Observational (n=38)
Does the prevalence of ventricular arrhythmias in the first 12 hours of acute myocardial infarction differ between patients who develop primary ventricular fibrillation and those who do not?
This natural history study aimed to characterize the prevalence of ventricular arrhythmias in the first 12 hours of acute myocardial infarction in patients with and without primary ventricular fibrillation.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
No quantitative results reported to inform early AMI monitoring; leaves open whether ventricular arrhythmias differ by primary VF status.
Campbell et al. (1981) conducted an observational in acute myocardial infarction (n=38). A natural history study evaluated the prevalence of ventricular arrhythmias in the first 12 hours of acute myocardial infarction in 38 patients, but the abstract reports no quantitative results.
