BETABLOKKERE ETTER HJERTEINFARKT– SKAL DEN FORTSATT GIS?
Hjerteposten : fagtidsskrift for NSFs landsgruppe av kardiologiske sykepleiere.
ISSN 1891-2532.
p. 28–32.
Show summary
Betablokkere har vært standard sekundærforebyggende behandling etter akutt hjerteinfarkt siden 1980-tallet. Siden den gang har diagnostikken og behandlingen av hjerteinfarkt forandret seg betydelig. Om betablokkere fortsatt er nyttig, skal BETAMI-studien gi svar på. Studien startet opp i oktober 2018 og er en av de største ikke-industrisponsede hjertestudiene som er gjennomført i Norge.

Relationship between discharge diagnoses and maximal troponin T values observed in a patient material from a university hospital.
Show summary
The recent proposal of lowering the decision level of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) for diagnosing acute myocardial infarction (Eur.Heart J,2000;21:1502-13) has made it more important to know the incidence of increased cTnT due to other diseases than acute coronary syndromes (ACS).
On this purpose we selected from the hospital databases 3461 in-hospital patients in whom cTnT had been determined in year 2000, along with the respective cTnT results and the diagnoses given these patients on discharge. Only one diagnosis was used on each patient. These diagnoses were selected on the basis of their ICD-10 codes in a priority order favouring those diseases that are known most often to cause increased cTnT, starting with the codes for acute myocardial infarct.
In the group of patients (no 2319) with cTnT < 0.03 mg/L, 4.6% were considered having ACS. In the group with cTnT ³ 0.03 (no 1142), cTnT ³ 0.10 (no 688), or cTnT ³ 0.20, the percentages were 35%, 52% and 60%, respectively. Forty four percent of patients with cTnT ³ 0.03, 35% with cTnT ³ 0.10, and 30% with cTnT ³ 0.20 mg/L had other heart diseases, particularly congestive heart failure, atrial fibrillation unspecified (stable) angina pectoris or precordial pain of unknown cause. Of the remaining patients with no heart diagnoses, those with renal diseases, sepsis, pulmonary embolism and several other respiratory diagnoses had more often cTnT above 0.03 than others. Most of the 22 patients with myocardial infarction and cTnT less than 0.03 had been referred from other hospitals several days after onset of symptoms for angiography.
In conclusion, although cTnT is heart specific, it is not specific for ACS. A lowering of the decision level will markedly increase the incidence of patients with increased cTnT due to other reasons than ACS.

NorCaD-modellen (Norwegian Cardiovascular Disease model) er en simuleringsmodell som følger grupper av individer fra de er friske til de får hjerte- og karsykdom og senere dør.
Modellen fanger opp kostnader, livskvalitet og leveår etter hvert som hjerte- og karsykdommene utvikler seg over tid. Modellen kan brukes til økonomisk evaluering av en rekke ulike tiltak mot hjerte- og karsykdom ved at den beregner kostnad per vunnet leveår eller kostnad per kvalitetsjustert vunnet leveår.

Show summary
Previous studies have shown that Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a better treatment than thrombolysis for patients with acute myocardial infarction admitted to an
invasive centre. However, the economic consequences of PCI as the primary strategy has not yet been assessed. One should also consider different strategies when there is a
long distance from local hospital to the centre offering PCI. The aim of the study was to explore the long-term cost-effectiveness of PCI.
