acute coronary syndromeماهو تعريف-

Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) includes all syndromes compatible with acute myocardial ischemia resulting from imbalance between myocardial oxygen demand and supply.

عبارة عن مجموعة من الأعراض التي تنتج عن ضيق الشريان التاجي المسؤول عن تروية عضلة القلب بالغذاء والأكسجين وتنقسم الى نوعين اعتمادًا على قراءة جهاز ECG.

-ما اشهر المسببات وكيف يتكون المرض causes - Pathophysiology؟
🔹endothelial dysfunction
طبقة الخلايا التي تكون السطح الداخلي للأعويه الدمويه .
🔸inflammation
🔹formation of fatty streak
ارتفاع نسبة الكولسترول بالدم
All these factors contribute to development of atherosclerosis

-complication of MI :📑

-clinical presentation /deferential diagnosis:📌

-(assessment and evaluation)📈🧪👨🏻‍⚕
1- symptoms of ischemia
2- A 12-lead ECG should be performed and interpreted within 10 minutes of presentation.
3- Serial cardiac biomarkers
4-creatine kinase and cardiac troponins T and I

📎🛑🛑 According to ECG reading :

a. new significant ST-segment–T-wave changes or new left bundle- branch block

b. Persistent ST-segment elevation should be treated according to the STEMI guidelines.

-👩🏻‍🔬Cardiac markers are proteins that leak out of injured myocardial cells into the bloodstream.
🔺the markers most widely used in detection of MI are (creatine kinase and cardiac troponins ) T and I as they are more specific for myocardial injury.

The cardiac troponins T and I are The most sensitive and specific test
for myocardial damage which are released within 3–6 hours of an attack of MI and remain elevated for up to 2 weeks .
🔺🔺troponin I levels in heart attack is above 0.40 ng/ml

🔴🔴 تستخدم للتشخيص لحالات MI لتواجدها بالدم في خلال ساعات قليلة وتستمر ل ١٤ يوم حتى في تحسن الحاله

The CK-MB isoform of creatine kinase is expressed in heart muscle ; Since it has a short duration, it cannot be used for late diagnosis of acute MI but can be used to suggest infarct extension if levels rise again.
🛑This is usually back to normal within 2–3 days.👇🏼

👩🏻‍🔬🔴 لسبب سرعة اختفائها من الدم فهي تستخدم لمتابعة MI اذا زادت عند المريض لان سبب وجودها مرتفع بعد ٣ ايام يدل على ان المريض مازال لديه MI ولم يتم معالجته بالصوره المطلوبه

- TIMI score Is useful in predicting mortality in NSTE-ACS
-GRACE risk model to predict mortality and MI(patient with high GRACE risk model can be identified for early invasive strategies)

🔸Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) : is not as specific as troponin.
LDH-1 isozyme is normally found in the heart muscle . A high LDH-1 level suggest MI.

-Initial Anti-ischemia and Analgesic therapy in the management of ACS:
-تذكر دائماً هذا الأختصار وهو اسم MONA عند بدء بعلاج ACS💡-

🔸early management for STEMI:

🚑🏥 من بداية ظهور الأعراض يعطى المريض في سيارة الاسعاف MONA , ثم يحدد الدكتور الموجود اذا كان بإمكان المريض الوصول لغرفة العمليات لعمل primary PCI في خلال ٩٠ دقيقه من ظهور الاعراض .

💊بعد ذلك يلزم على المريض اخذ نوعين من anti-platelet يكون واحد من هذه النوعين هو aspirin اذا لم يكن لدى المريض اي مانع للإستخدام وحيستمر عليهم لمدة ١٢ شهر
+ بالاضافة الى نوع واحد من anti-coagulant .

🔺اذا لمن يتمكن المريض من التواجد في غرفة العمليات خلال ١٢٠ دقيقه من ظهور الاعراض ، فعليه ان يأخذ من كلاس مذيبات الجلطه اذا لم يكن لديه اي موانع من استخدامها ( يشترط عليه خلال ٢٤ ساعه ان يقوم بعمل PCI ) .
- بعد ذلك عليه اخذ aspirin مع clopidogrel بالاضافه الى anticoagulant.

💡The goal of therapy in STEMI is minimize the infarct size by restore infarct related artery , prevention of complications and control the symptoms.

fibrinolytic agent 💊:
is indicated in patients with STEMI who present within 12 hours of the onset of
chest discomfort to a hospital not capable of primary PCI within 120 minutes of medical contact and have no absolute contraindications to fibrinolytic therapy .

A fibrin-specific agent (alteplase, reteplase, or tenecteplase) is preferred over the non–fibrin specific agent streptokinase.
🔻Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) and major bleeding are the most serious side effects of fibrinolytics.

🔸contraindications to fibrinolytic Therapy:

🔸early management for NSTE-ACS:

💡The goal of therapy in NSTE-ACS is to prevent total occlusion of the related artery and to control chest pain and associated symptoms.

💡عند تشخيص المريض ب NSTE-ACS فإنه يتم علاجه اعتمادًا على حساب TIMI , GRACE (score) وينقسم العلاج على حسب الاسكور الى العلاج الدوائي فقط او العلاج بوضع PCI or CABG .

Pharmacotherapy for these medications with details :
الادويه التي يتم استخدامها في المستشفى بالتفصيل بعد حالة Acs نتعرف عليها 👩🏻‍⚕
Aspirin
- An irreversible cyclooxygenase-1 inhibitor blocking the formation of thromboxane A2– and thromboxane A2_ mediated platelet activation⬇️

- Established first-line therapy in ACS; reduces the incidence of recurrent MI and death
- Aspirin is given indefinitely
يتبع🔻

ii. P2Y12 inhibitors
(a) Inhibit the effect of adenosine diphosphate on the platelet, a key mediator resulting in amplification of platelet activation
(b) P2Y12 inhibitor therapy is given to all patients

بتبع🔻

(1) should not be administered to patients with a history of stroke or transient ischemic attack
(2) The efficacy or ticagrelor is decreased in patients treated with higher doses of aspirin (greater than 300 mg daily) compared with lower doses (less than 100 mg daily)
يتبع🔻

ii. GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors:💊

and in those not receiving adequate pretreatment with clopidogrel or ticagrelor .
-🔳It is reasonable (class IIa, 2014 NSTE-ACS guideline) to give GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors to high
risk patients with NSTE-ACS treated with UFH and adequately pretreated with clopidogrel or ticagrelor.

⛔⛔Anticoagulant recommendations
An anticoagulant should be administered to all patients with ACS in addition to antiplatelet therapy to reduce the risk of intracoronary and catheter thrombus formation ⛔⛔

(c) Risks include bleeding, thrombocytopenia, and HIT with or without thrombosis.

(d) Monitoring includes aPTT or ACT, Hgb/Hct, and platelets.
(e) Unlike other anticoagulants, UFH is not renally cleared and can be used safely in those with renal impairment..
يتبع🔻

ii. Enoxaparin
(a) Low Molecular weight Heparin with balanced anti-factor Xa (anti-Xa) and anti-IIa activity. b) Given as subcutaneous injection
(c) Does not require routine anti-Xa monitoring; SCr to calculate CrCl for dosing; monitor Hgb, Hct, platelets

وبعدها راح نتكلم عن المراه الحامل وهنا بتكون : وراح ننتبه على بعض الادويه سواء كان يصح باستخدامه او تسبب ضرر او ننصح بتعامل مع الادويه بكل دقه🤰🏻
Low dose aspirin
P2Y12 receptor blocker -clopidogrel, prasugrel or ticagrelor. The safety of these medications has not been established

- The combination of a P2Y12 receptor blocker and aspirin might increase bleeding at the time of delivery.
- For patients receiving clopidogrel it is
يتبع🔻

🛑recommended to hold clopidogrel for seven days before a scheduled delivery.

Fibrinolytic therapy: relatively contraindicated o Anticoagulation: heparin can be used ✅
