We conclude that the appearance of newQ waves after CABG adversely affects survival.
2
The primary endpoint was a 2-year all-cause mortality or non-fatal, centrally adjudicated, newQ-wave myocardial infarction.
3
Elisabeth Easther reviews the first show to be performed at the newQ Theatre loft space in Auckland.
4
On the contrary, the isolated appearance of a newQ wave has no impact on the postoperative cardiac outcome.
5
Conclusions: The association of a newQ wave and high levels of myocardial necrosis biomarkers is strongly associated with postoperative cardiac events.
6
Results: The incidence of newQ waves was 7.3%.
7
There are few data on the long-term effects of newQ waves on survival and morbidity after coronary bypass graft surgery (CABG).
8
The appearance of newQ wave on the ECG performed preoperatively and 24 h postoperatively was used to assess myocardial lesion independently of biological markers.
9
Results: There were 69 patients without newQ wave on the ECG (group 1) and 13 with (group 2).
10
Objective: The appearance of newQ waves on the electrocardiogram (ECG) after cardiac surgery has been traditionally considered a sign of major myocardial tissue damage.
