Öğe Acute myocardial infarction in a patient with essential thrombocythemia treated with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor(Sage Publications Inc, 2004) Gül, Ç; Kürüm, T; Demir, M; Özbay, G; Vural, Ö; Iqbal, O; Fareed, JEssential thrombocythemia (ET) rarely causes obstruction of coronary arteries or acute myocardial infarction. Treatment of acute myocardial infarction in patients with ET may be a problem due to the important role of platelets in the pathogenesis of infarction. There is no reported case of acute myocardial infarction with essential thrombocythemia treated with a glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor. In this report, a 49-year-old woman with essential thrombocythemia, admitted with a diagnosis of acute inferolateral myocardial infarction, was treated with tirofiban, a glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor blocker.Öğe Hyperosmolar hyperglycaemic nonketotic coma associated with acute myocardial infarction(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2002) Yildiz, M; Gül, Ç; Özbay, GDiabetes mellitus is one of the most commonly associated diseases of patients suffering an acute myocardial infarction. Although the coexistence of acute myocardial infarction with other clinical manifestations of diabetes have been well described, extremely few data exists about the concomitant occurrence of hyperosmolar hyperglycaemic nonketotic coma and myocardial infarctions. This article presents three patients with this association and aimed to discuss the clinical course and treatment strategies of this rare condition.Öğe Right ventricular aneurysm complicating right ventricular infarction(Acta Cardiologica, 2001) Akdemir, O; Gül, Ç; Özbay, GRight ventricular (RV) involvement commonly occurs in patients with acute inferior myocardial infarction and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. RV dysfunction and dilatation commonly recover in survivors; chronic RV dyskinesia and failure are rare complications. This case report presents a patient in whom an isolated RV aneurysm complicates a RV involvement of acute inferior-posterior myocardial infarction.Öğe Specific tissue Doppler predictors of preserved systolic and diastolic left ventricular function after an acute anterior myocardial infarction(Japan Heart Journal, Second Dept Of Internal Med, 2003) Akdemir, O; Dagdeviren, B; Yildiz, M; Gül, Ç; Sürücü, H; Özbay, GThe degree of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction determines the outcome of patients suffering an acute anterior myocardial infarction (AAMI). Many recent studies have utilized tissue Doppler echocardiography (TDE) parameters in the assessment of LV function. We sought to investigate whether some variables easily obtained from TDE profiles of mitral annulus corners would predict a relatively preserved LV global function traditionally assessed with ejection fraction (EF) and deceleration time (DT), within the acute phase of AAMI Included were 50 consecutive patients with a first AAMI. Standard echocardiography and TDE of mitral annulus were performed within 36 hours of admission Pulsed wave sample volumes were set at the septal, lateral, anterior, and inferior corners of the mitral annulus. Preserved LV function was defined as an EF > 40% together with a DT greater than or equal to 140 ms and < 220 ms. An inferior annular systolic velocity of > 7.5 cm/s predicts preserved global left ventricular function with a sensitivity of 81% and specificity of 71%. An anterior mitral annular early diastolic velocity of > 8cm/s had a sensitivity of 69% and specificity of 85%. When these two velocities both exceed the limits above, such a combined index yielded a sensitivity of 69%, specificity of 94%, and an overall diagnostic accuracy of 86% for the estimation of preserved LV global function. The parameters derived from TDE profiles of inferior and anterior mitral annulus corners provide valuable information to predict preserved global left ventricular function during the early period of AAMI.
