Prognosis
Peak oxygen consumption (VO2max), gas exchange efficiency (VE/VCO2), oxygenation, blood pressure, oxygen pulse and ECG monitoring are all useful for determining prognosis and risk [6]. [escardio.org]
Incresed cardiothoracic ratio, LVEF less than 50% non thrombolysed patients and Ant Wall MI are poor prognosis factors in long term morbidity and mortality of AMI. [japi.org]
CCTGA is a rare disease; patients without frequently associated cardiac anomalies are considered to have long life expectancies; however, their prognosis remains unclear. [read.qxmd.com]
