Educational functions
Infarction Code is aimed at people with chest pain who may be presenting with an acute heart attack, a clinical situation where the latter count and it is urgent to reach the appropriate hospital for a medical assessment. Usually the infarction is caused by a clot that blocks an artery of the heart. Lack of circulation causes damage to the heart muscle fed by the obstructed coronary artery. The crucial objective of the treatment is to eliminate the obstruction, which is called REPERFUSION.
Reperfusion with medications, known as FIBRINOLYSIS, is more effective if it is done in the first 30 minutes after the patient arrives at the hospital.
The reperfusion by cardiac catheterization and implantation of a STENT in the first 90 minutes of arrival at the hospital is known as PRIMARY ANGIOPLASTY and is considered the ideal therapy for heart infarction.
