No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Proximal RCA occlusions were very often found among men with fatal pre-hospital MI; whereas left-sided coronary occlusions were significantly more frequent in hospital-admitted survivors of MI. Left-sided coronary occlusions may be associated with a more favorable pre-hospital phase of acute MI compared to proximal RCA occlusions. Proximal RCA occlusion increases the risk of arrhythmia and shock leading to increase the mortality. Sinus bradycardia and cardiogenic shock accounts for the majorities of the mortalities of RCA occlusion

Conditions

  • Right Coronary Artery Occlusion

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

echocardiography study

Patients with right coronary artery occlusion lesion will be subjected to: * Written consent. * Complete history. * Complete physical examination. * Trans-thoracic echocardiography assessment of the right ventricular function before PCI to the RCA * Follow up Trans-thoracic echocardiography assessment of the right ventricular function four weeks after the PCI.
