door to needle time goal

EMS to balloon time goal
door to needle (ER door-->fibrinolytic) time goal- 30 min

EMS to balloon time goal- within 90 min of arriving at hospital (>95% efficacy at restoring flow)- if you can't do this (not at a good hospital) give the fibrinolytic
goal total ischemic time
120 min

meds given at this time?
preferred if in hospitals with cath lab and surgical back up

CI to fibrinolysis (ICH, bleeds)
late presentation (>3h from sx onset- maybe person just sat there)
dx of STEMI in doubt (like a really young person that is thin)
pt who recieve fibrinolysis- what do we need to do with them after?

in addition to PCI (primary or secondary) in STEMI, all pt should receive what? (2)
all pt should receive late hospital care and secondary prevention of STEMI
what is MoA of thrombolytis
exogenous plasminogen activators -
plasmonigen is proenzyme converted to plasmin by plasminogen activators (which then digests fibrin)
thrombolytic administration timing for STEMI- max, preferable time, ideal time
administer within 12h of symptom onset
prefer within 6 h
IDEALLY within 30 min of arrival to hospital (door to needle)
3 non selective thrombolytics

what does non selective entail
streptokinase
anistreplase
urokinase

nonselective means they bind CIRCULATING AND BOUND plasminogen (more bleeds)
3 selective thrombolytics
what does selective entail
alteplase (tPA)
reteplase (rPA)
tenecteplase

more selective for bound plasminogen (already formed clots)
most selective thrombolytic
tenecteplase
STK 2 properties (2)
STK antigenic- can occur when given SECOND time (challenge etc) so not really given anymore since it also has low efficacy
Tenecteplase dosing frequency
once
alteplase (TPA) dosing
IVP, then 0.75 mg/kg over 30 min, then 0.5 mg/kg over 60 min
reteplase dosing
IVP q30 min x2
stent vs thrombolytics- mortality effect, other effects (4)
stent > thrombolytics for mortality rate decreases

also smaller infarct size, less reinfarcation
less medical cost, less CV event readmission for HF/ischemia

-ANY prior hemorrhagic CVA
-ischemic CVA within 3 months?? Why? Transformation into hemorrhagic stroke
intracranial neoplasma or AVM ( bulge in artery at risk of rupture)
internal bleeds
aortic dissection (more bleed risk)
-facial/closed head trauma- increase risk of hemorrhage
-same with diabetic retinopathy
-malignant BP (>200/120)- also increases risk of brain hemorrhage
relative CIs for thrombolytics- look at list
age >75
active peptic ulcer
pregnancy (more abortions)
Hx TIA/ischmemia GREATER than 3 months ago

goal LDL < 100 mg/dL??? i thought it was 70 for the NSTEMI...check. option <70 if very high risk (has additional risk factor- diabetes, smoker, recurrent)
AMI effect on LDL

what this means for measuring LDL in STEMI/NSTEMI pt
AMI artificially depresses cholesterol by 1/3 to 1/2 so you MUST measure within 24h of presentation or else wait 6-12 weeks
