Abstract:
Background: Acute myocardial infarction is one of the most common cause of left ventricular dysfunction leading to morbidity and mortality worldwide. Ventricular function is the best predictor of patient prognosis and death after an acute myocardial infarction.
Methodology: A prospective study was conducted in Sri Siddhartha Medical College& Hospital from July 2022 to 2024.Total 103 acute myocardial patients were included fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria with given consent for the study. This will be followed by detailed history taking , clinical examination and Echo-cardiogram to asses left ventricular ejection fraction . A total of 103 patients of acute myocardial infarction has been included in the study. Echocardiographic ejection fraction has been compared with patient prognosis and outcome.
Result: The patients with acute myocardial infarction of 103 patients, most of the patients on observation , around 14.02% of patients who had cardiac arrest has been with poor prognosis and more drop of left ventricular function and 86 % of the patient who has been stably discharged it had been observed that, not much drop in left ventricular function.
Conclusion: On correlating patients left ventricular function and patient outcome in acute myocardial infarction , it can be concluded that in most of them as low as the left ventricular function decreases the poor prognosis can be expected leading to high morbidity and mortality.
