ABSTRACT
@#BACKGROUND: Acute myocardial infarction is leading cause of global morbidity and mortality and major health care burden in worldwide. Previous studies demonstrated that restoration of myocardial tissue perfusion after primary PCI is significant factor of improved outcome. In Mongolia, studying long term effects of primary PCI in patients with AMI and its’ association with coronary blood flow, tissue Doppler imaging, left ventricular global strain pattern in speckle-tracking echocardiography and risk factors are essential in theoretical and clinical practice. AIMS: To determine long term effects of primary PCI in patients with AMI and its’ association with left ventricular strain pattern in speckle-tracking echocardiography, risk factors and patient prognosis. METHODS: We used prospective cohort study design. We were selected 414 patients with AMI who treated by primary PCI between 2015 and 2016 at the State Third Central Hospital. Echocardiographic examination was conducted on Philips iE33 xMATRIX ultrasound machine. The PCI was performed according to the MNS:6379-2013 standard. RESULTS: Mean age was 60±13 and majority of them were male 84% (n=347). Complete coronary perfusion (TIMI-3) was achieved in patients 88% (n=367) after primary PCI. There was weak, negative correlation between coronary TIMI flow grade and left ventricular global longitudinal strain (r=-0.183, CI 95% -0.289 to-0.066, p<0.001). In patients with incomplete coronary perfusion (TIMI<3), mortality rate was significantly higher during 24 months follow-up. After primary PCI, 24 months mortality was 9.9% (n=39). Cut-off value of left ventricular global longitudinal strain which predict long term (within 24 month follow-up) mortality was -12.93% (sensitivity 74.4%, specificity 74.3%). Mortality during 24 months follow-up was significantly different between left ventricular global longitudinal strain groups (log-rank test p<0.001) and mortality was higher in left ventricular global longitudinal strain ≥ -12.93% group. CONCLUSION: Coronary no-reflow phenomenon is associated with long term mortality in patients with AMI. In patients with AMI who treated by PCI, long term mortality is predictable with left ventricular global longitudinal (≥-12.93%, p<0.001) strain.
ABSTRACT
Introduction @#In the last years other country scientists told about not only determine infant weights, need to interest correlation between maternal weight, height and infant weight. In our country few research articles posted about anthropometry of obstetrics and gynecology. Our study aim is determine maternal weight, infant weight, placenta weight and assess factors affecting roles on maternal story of “Amgalan” Maternity Hospital in 2014-2015.@*Goal@#The current study aimed at assessing maternal weight, infant weight, placenta weight and evaluating the effect of factors leading to it. @*Materials and Methods@#The data was already collected from “Amgalan” Maternity Hospital using maternal history and record and it was collected measuring general physical characteristics such as body weight and height, infant weight, placenta weight and body circumferences. We used retrospective method and collected statistical data was analyzed using SPSS 21.0 software. @*Results@#Of total 964 study participants aged 18-45. The average age of participants was 29.6 ± 5.8 years old and 49.7% (n=479) was working during pregnancy, 45.7% (n=441) hadn’t works, 4.6% (n=44) was student. The average weight of mothers was 75.4±11.5, weight of infants was 3439.5±456, weight of placenta was 685±129. The following factors affected maternal and infant weights: lower education, working, early and late pregnancy complication. Maternal weight had a low direct correlation with infant weight (r=0.267, p<0.01) and placenta weight (r=0.208, p<0.01). In our study maternal height had a low direct correlation with infant weight(r=0.173, p<0.01) and infant weight had a moderate direct correlation with placenta weight (r=0.376, p<0.01). @*Conclusions@#</br> 1. The average maternal weight was 75.4±11.5, infant weight was 3539.5±456, placenta weight was 685±129. </br> 2. The following factors affected maternal and infant weights: lower education, working status, early and late pregnancy complications. </br> 3. Maternal weight had a little direct correlation with infant weight (r=0.267, p<0.01) and placenta weight (r=0.208, p<0.01).
ABSTRACT
Introduction Coronary TIMI flow gradewas previously demonstrated to be related to outcome after acute myocardial infarction. However, the relationship between coronary flow grade and left ventricular global longitudinal strainin patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) treated by primary percutaneous intervention (PCI) were unclear. Goal In this study, we aimed to reveal the relationship between coronary TIMI flow grade and LV GLS in patients with AMI. Materials and Methods We prospectively selected patients with AMI who treated by primary PCI. Based on whether TIMI 3 flow achieved at the end of the procedure patients were divided into two groups. Group I (TIMI 3 flow was achieved, n=367), Group II (TIMI 3 flow was not achieved, n=47). The LV GLS was assessed by 2dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (2D STE). Results A total of 413 patients (mean age 60±13, 84% male) were included and TIMI 3 flow was achieved in 367 patients (88%). LV GLS was significantly impaired in patients who had TIMI 3 flow not achieved compared with TIMI 3 flow achieved group (-13.1±4.8% vs. -15.3±3.8%, p<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis which included age, gender, clinical, biochemical and angiographic variables showed that coronary TIMI flow grade of culprit artery was independently associated with LV GLS. There was negative correlation between coronary TIMI flow grade and LV GLS (Pearson’s r=-0.183, p<0.001). Simple linear regression analysis revealed that coronary TIMI flow grade is directly associated with LV GLS (β=-1.61, p<0.001) and which indicated that every 1 scale increase of final coronary TIMI flow grade resulted -1.61% increase of LV GLS. Conclusion Our study demonstrated the coronary TIMI flow grade of the culprit artery was independently associated with LV GLSin patients with AMI treated by primary PCI.
ABSTRACT
Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases are one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in Mongolia during last 10 years. Accordingly, increasing number of the procedures cardiac open heart surgeries in Mongolia.The aim is to evaluate of the scientific literature related toestimation of expenditure for open heart surgeries.Method: The literature search strategies were developed to identify published studies. The following literature databases were searched and collected individually: MEDLINE PubMed, Google and abstract books in Mongolian libraries.Result: Analyzed the 28 published literatures which made in estimation of expenditures for open heart surgery. The most of the study were generally focused on the expenses of diagnosis and treatments of open heart surgery. Literature showed that for patients not covered by health insurance, valve replacement surgery typically costs from about $80,000 -$200,000 or more with an average, according to an American Heart Association report, of $164,238, not including the doctor fee. A surgeon fee can add $5,000 or more to the final bill. For example, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in New Hampshire charges about $86,500, including doctor fee, after a 30% uninsured discount. St. Mary’s Hospital in Wisconsin charges an average of $107,000, but costs can reach $200,000 or more. AndBaptist Memorial Health Care charges about $75,000 -$140,000, not including doctor fee, but cost can go up to more than $200,000 with major complications. In Russia, total 700,000 people take surgery on annual average each year and on which they spend 10 902 500 000$ annually, it has been stated on Bokeriya.L found that 464 637.840 ruble annually on cardiac surgery coronary angioplasty surgery, 792 237 ruble on coronary heart disease surgery and 9 522 ruble on congenital heart defect repairment surgery. Up to per 15 years old children, 24 288 ruble spend on average. Bokeria et all reported that, expenses of medicine through ABC/VEN analysis, 47 types of medicines of A group(13.1% of total medicines) takes 79.62% of total expenses, 71 types of medicines of B group(19.8% of total medicines) takes 15.36% of total expenses, 242 types of medicines of C group(67.1% of total medicines) takes 5.02% of total expenses. Out of this report, N group’s portion of A group medicines takes 0.79% by VENanalysis. Approximate, all inclusive cost for open heart bypass surgery (CABG ) vary between USD 5500 - USD 7800, depending on the facility & city you chose to get the procedure done in India. D.Tsegeenjav and D.Bat-Undral reported the expenses on open heart surgery in Mongolia, as a result showed that health insurance spend 56 422 656 ₮ (appx 39,100,093$) for 156 numbers of procedures. But real cost expenditure was 440 300 000.00₮. It means health insurance spent 12.6% of total expenditure for procedures. Also health insurance expenditure for CABG and one valve replacement per patient were same as 643 272.00₮, but real expenditures for CABG was 2 000 000.00₮, and for one valve replacement surgery per patient was 5 000 000.00 ₮.Conclution: The scientific literatures showed that many studies related in estimation of expenditure for open heart surgery made in international countries such as Russia, USA, UK and India et all. But we didn’t found the study for estimation of expenditures for open heart surgery by using ABC/VEN analysis in Mongolia.References:1. Health indicators of Mongolia 2002-2012.
