The aim of this study was to investigate whether prolongation the heart rate-corrected QT interval (QTc) is an independent risk factor for predicting future acute coronary syndrome (ACS) occurrence or mortality in patients with at least one cardiac presenting chest pain emergency department (ED).This a single-center, retrospective ED Einstein Medical Center, Philadelphia, between 2011 and 2012. Proportional hazards models were used calculate hazard ratios (HRs) ACS death within 1 year....
Background: Hypertensive emergencies (HE) account for 3% of emergency room hospitalizations and it is estimated that 1-2% America’s 50 million hypertensive patients will have at least one occurrence HE in their lifetime. Recent studies shown cardiac troponin-I elevated a third with HE, however the pathophysiology significance this elevation still being explored. We tried to look different factors influence decision do ischemic work up HE. Method: Patients admitted Albert Einstein Medical...
