Correlative classification of clinical and hemodynamic function after acute myocardial infarction
TL;DR: Clinical performance and both clinical and hemodynamic subsets are directly relevant to establishing prognosis and the selection of therapy in patients with acute myocardial infarction are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of vasodilator therapy in heart failure.
TL;DR: The current status of the therapeutic use of vasodilator drugs in acute and chronic heart failure and it is probable that such drugs will emerge and become at least as important as the routine use of digitalis in such patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hemodynamic Spectrum of Myocardial Infarction and Cardiogenic Shock A Conceptual Model
TL;DR: This model may more rationally explain the genesis and natural history of “heart failure’ and the “shock syndrome’ associated with acute myocardial infarction and in addition explain the extremely variable responses to both drug therapy and to more aggressive modes of treatment of power failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of precordial electrocardiographic mapping as a means of assessing changes in myocardial ischemic injury.
TL;DR: Sites at which appearance of epicardial ST segment is not a reliable index of ischemic injury were associated with the development of intraventricular conduction blocks with Q to intrinsic deflection intervals exceeding 40 msec or QRS durations exceeding 65 msec; these changes wereassociated with precordial RSR′ configurations.

Prognosis in cardiogenic shock after acute myocardial infarction in the intervencional era
James R. Bengtson,Andrew J. Kaplan,Karen S. Pieper,Nancy M. Wildermann,Daniel B. Mark,David B. Pryor,Harry R. Phillips,Robert M. Califf +7 more
TL;DR: In a large consecutive series of patients with cardiogenic shock with complete follow-up, patency of the infarct-related artery was most strongly associated with in-hospital and long-term mortality, which supports an aggressive interventional strategy in patients withCardiogenicshock.

Initial Clinical Experience With Intraaortic Balloon Pumping in Cardiogenic Shock
Adrian Kantrowitz,Steinar Tjønneland,Paul S. Freed,Steven J. Phillips,Alfred N. Butner,Jacques L. Sherman +5 more
TL;DR: Although final evaluation must await more data, balloon pumping appears to be effective in cardiogenic shock, and further study may establish a place for the procedure in myocardial infarction without cardiogenesis shock and in low cardiac output syndromes associated with open-heart surgery.

Experimental myocardial infarction. Induction of coronary thrombosis in the intact closed-chest dog.
TL;DR: Coronary thrombosis can be consistently induced in the intact closed-chest dog by the passage of a low-grade direct electrical current through a circuit that includes a positive intraluminal electrode in a major coronary branch and a negative external electrode on the chest wall.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Hemodynamic Study of Left Ventricular Aneurysm
TL;DR: A theoretical analysis presented indicated that when approximately 20 to 25% of left ventricular area is inactivated by any pathological process, the degree of shortening distance required of the myofiber to maintain stroke volume exceeds physiological limits, and cardiac enlargement must ensue to maintain adequate ejection of blood.

Prospective correlative study of ventricular aneurysm: Mechanistic concept and clinical recognition
TL;DR: Ventricular aneurysm was recognized by cineventriculography in twenty-four patients with coronary heart disease and proved most difficult to diagnose clinically and usually depended on ventriculographic for recognition.
