Clinical and epidemiological characterization of patients admitted with acute myocardial infarction in the Coronary Intensive Care Unit of the Abel Santamaría Cuadrado Hospital, June-August, 2019

Abstract

Introduction: acute myocardial infarction involves cardiac cell death due to ischemia caused by a perfusion-demand imbalance.
Objective: to clinically and epidemiologically characterize patients admitted with a diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction in the Coronary Intensive Care Unit of the Abel Santamaría Cuadrado Hospital from June to August 2019.
Methodological design: an observational, descriptive, longitudinal, retrospective study was carried out on 70 patients admitted with a diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction, the sample coincided with the universe. Data were obtained from medical records.
Results: the highest percentage of female patients belonged to the 68-79 age range with 15.7%, in men however the highest percentage range was 44-55, with 14.3%. More than half of the women and men presented the lesion on the lower face. AHT was shown to be the most predominant risk factor in women and smoking in men. Precordial pain predominated in both sexes with 66.67% in women and 85.29% in men, and 13.87% of women presented fatigue as a symptom of infarction, contrasting with 2.94% in men.
Conclusions: acute myocardial infarction was more frequent in black-skinned women; the lesion on the lower face predominated in both sexes. The clinical picture was characterized by precordial pain in women and men.
