VENTRICULAR ARRYTHMIAS IN ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTIONAbstract
Since the introduction of Coronary Care Unit (C.C.U’s) early detection and treatment of different types of Ventricular Arrythmias have attracted much interest. This has been based upon the assumption that certain types of ventricular premature beats are precursors of V.T. and V.F. It was also reported that agressive treatment of these warning arrythmias reduced the incidence of ventricular fibrillation. Although this was achieved to some extent, V.F. was not abolished.
Thus at the present time much more insight has been gained into the characterization and localiz ation of arrythmias associated with Acute Myocardial Infarction. Search for an antiarrythmic is going on which would abolish primary V.F. and late arrythmias and thus sudden death in the survivors.
