Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Myocardial Infarction
Registration Number
NCT05677503
Lead Sponsor
Sohag University
Brief Summary

the study is to investigate the relationship of several parameters of complete blood count (CBC) including RDW with N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) in a cohort of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients.

Detailed Description

Patients and methods:

* Type of study: Observational prospective study

* Place of study: Sohag cardiology and gastroenterology center, department of cardiology and cardiac care unit.

* Ethical considerations: This research will be revised by the Scientific Ethical Committee of Sohag University Hospital. Consents will be taken from all patients.

* Study Methods:

* A prospective study on 30 patients diagnosed as acute myocardial infarction on which measurement of CBC, serum NT-proBNP, and cTnT levels will be performed at the time of admission and by the time of discharge.

1. Full history:

1. Personal history: e.g. age, sex and smoking.

2. Family history of cardiac diseases

3. Medical history of: Hypertension, Ischemic heart disease, prior coronary artery bypass grafting, Prior Percutaneous coronary intervention, Prior Stroke, Prior Atrial fibrillation, therapeutic history

2. Detailed clinical examination

3. Electrocardiogram

4. Laboratory investigation:

1. Routine investigation in the form of CBC including RDW

2. Specific investigation which include NT-proBNP and cTnT
