Abstract :
Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) is the most important form of CHD. AMI has rapidly emerged as leading cause of increasing morbidity and mortality despite of better detection and management. So this study was conducted to study whole clinical profile of 100 AMI patients admitted in ICCU for one year. AMI is most common in elderly (> 60 years) and in males (82%). Tobacco chewing was found as most common risk factor (41%) and positive family history was found in 22%. Chest pain (95%) followed by perspiration were presenting symptoms. Anterior wall MI was found in majority of patients (61%) followed by Inferior wall MI, Fully evolved MI and others. Arrythmias were most common complication found and mortality was found in 10% patients. So incidence of MI can be decreased by decreasing this risk factor by creating awareness about hazards of tobacco amongst general population and proper management.
