Journal Article

Unstable angina and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: part I. Initial evaluation and management, and hospital care.

TL;DR: Management of suspected UA/NSTEMI has four components: initial evaluation and management; hospital care; coronary revascularization; and hospital discharge and post-hospital care.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new, noninvasive technique for inducing post-extrasystolic potentiation during echocardiography.

TL;DR: This technique can safely and reliably induce post-extrasystolic potentiation during echocardiography and is a potentially important adjunct to the noninvasive evaluation of left ventricular function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Frequency of Contraction and lonic Environment on the Responses of Heart Muscle to Acetylcholine

TL;DR: A dual action of ACh on the myocardium is interpreted in terms of an action on the muscarinic receptor that reduces contractility and may be blocked with atropine, and a direct effect on cellular membrane permeability to Ca2+ that stimulates contractilityand may be reduced by prior elevation of intracytoplasmic [Ca2+].
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence-Based Coronary Care

TL;DR: Patients enjoyed the benefit of a halving of the in-hospital mortality rate for acute myocardial infarction but remained susceptible to the late consequences of large infarctions: heart failure and malignant ventricular arrhythmias.
