[Early prognosis in patients with recent myocardial infarct]. 1978

H Esser

Hemodynamic studies were performed in a total of 50 patients suffering from acute transmural myocardial infarction. The aim of these studies was to find hemodynamic parameters permitting at an early stage a reliable prognosis. Our results show that only by combining hemodynamic parameters an accurate prognosis can be made before the onset of cardiogenic shock. The most reliable statement can be made by means of cardiac work index and cardiac work.
