Effect of body mass index on Cardiac output after Coronary Angioplasty in patients of Acute Myocardial Infarction
Journal Title: Advance Research Journal of Multidisciplinary Discoveries - Year 2019, Vol 38, Issue 38
Abstract
Background & Objective: Generally overweight and obese are at more risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. But few researchers found that when coronary artery disease (CAD) developed in overweight and obese patients, it does not cause poor clinical outcome accordingly. There are very few numbers of studies done to find out relation between body mass index (BMI) and outcome of coronary angioplasty (PCI). So objective of this study is to find out effect of BMI on outcome of angioplasty in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients. Methods: It is a cross-sectional, self control, interventional study. In the present study Cardiac output (CO) of 52 patient of AMI were assessed by echocardiography before and after (one week) angioplasty. End diastolic volume (EDV), End systolic volume (ESV) & Left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) diameter, measured by ECHO were used to calculate CO. Statistical software IBM SPSS version 16 was used for analysis of data. Results: A positive and statistically significant coefficient of correlation (r=0.327 and p=0.018) was found between actual BMI and the value of CO after coronary angioplasty. Linear regression analysis was also done taking CO after coronary angioplasty as dependent variable and actual BMI as independent variable. It can be hypothesized that the person having higher BMI will show more improvement in CO after angioplasty. Conclusion: Increased BMI is associated with improved outcome after coronary angioplasty in AMI patients.
