Outlines
Introduction
• Myocardial Infraction (MI): Is the term used to describe irreversible myocardial necrosis (cell death) that result from an abrupt decrease or total cessation of coronary blood flow to a specific area of the myocardium

PATHOPHYSIOLOGYPATHOPHYSIOLOGY
• Inflammation Inflammation
• Plaque rupture Plaque rupture
• Thrombus formation Thrombus formation
• Irreversible damage starts in 20 to 40 minutes. Irreversible damage starts in 20 to 40 minutes. This process will continue for several hoursThis process will continue for several hours
causes• Atherosclerosis
• Hypertension
• Smoking
• Use of oral contraceptive
Clinical manifestation
• Sudden chest pain over the lower sternal region and upper abdomen is the presenting symptoms
• Pain increased to reach the level of heavy rise like pain which may radiate to shoulders and down the arm (usually left arm)
Clinical manifestation
• The pain begins spontaneously
• The pain is accompanied by SOB,pallor
• dizziness, nausea and vomiting
Diagnostic evaluation
• History
• ECG
• Echocardiogram
• Serial enzyme studies include CK,LDH,troponin
Medical managment1. Pharmacotherapy
• vasodilators: to treat myocardial pain as nitroglycerine
• Anticoagulants : as heparin
• Thrombolytics : use to dissolve any thrombus as streptokinase
Medical managment
2 Oxygen therapy
3 Analgesics: as morphin

Nursing procss
• Nursing diagnosis:
1. Chest pain R/T reduced coronary blood flow
2. Potential altered tissue perfusion R/T decreased cardiac output
3. Anxiety R/T fear of death
Nursing intervention
1. Relieving pain
2. Administer oxygen
3. Assess vital signs
4. Provide complete physical rest
5. Reduce anxiety
