Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: To describe coronary heart disease patients treated with balloon angioplasty at Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital. Patients & Methods: Records of coronary disease patients proven by angiography treated with balloon angioplasty between 1 June 2006 and 1 October 2006 were analyzed. Results: There were 104 cases, the majority of them were acute coronary syndromes, 91 cases (87.4%), which consisted of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) 36 cases (34.6%), unstable angina (UA) 31 cases (29.8%), non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) 24 cases (23%) and others. Mean age was 65.2 years, male mean age was 65.2 years while that of female was 70.2 years. Risk factor in male was hypertension and smoking (36.9 and 32.3%, respectively) and that of female was diabetic mellitis and hypertension (46.2 and 28.2, respectively). Concerning body mass index (BMI) less than 24.9 kg/m2, it was 77% in male and 72.5% in female. By percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), successful rate was 95%. Mortality rate, the serious complication, was 19.4 in STEMI and 4% in NSTEMI. Conclusion: At Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital, PCI treatment for acute myocardial infarction proved by coronary angiography could achieve successful rate of 95.0%, and mortality rate was 19%.
