(Reuters) – people with disease warning signs
heart, such as blood pressure and cholesterol high, there are more
placement in an institution to survive a first attack-prone to the
heart than those with better health before the heart attack
revealed a study American.
The analysis, which covered more than 500,000 people, found
that even when takes into account the age influences
and weight, few more cardiac risk factors was the
patient, children were the chances of death.
“After adjusting the age and other clinical factors, there was a
“
inverse relationship between the number of risk factors of
coronary heart disease and the realistic possibilities of
“
hospital mortality”, wrote the director of the study,
John Canto, in Journal of the American Medical Association.
“Association was consistent in several age groups and
“”
major subgroups of patients”, he added.
The researchers noted that you a possible explanation
for the result is that you people who already knew their
heart problem were medicated, Statin or
beta-blockers, who helped protect them after infarction.
The data for the analysis taken from a record
national American of almost 500,000 first strokes between
1994 and 2006. During the hospitalization, doctors indicated
If patients had some standard risk factor of
heart disease, including blood pressure, cholesterol,
diabetes, smoking, and family background.
Among all patients, more than 85 percent had to the
least one of these risk factors, and people with more of
one had heart attacks of younger, on average.
More than 50,000 patients died in the hospital.
After take into account the fact that people without
risk factors tended to be larger, and adjust the weight, the
race and gender, the study found that non-smokers without
diabetes or family history of heart disease, or
high, cholesterol or pressure were 50 percent more
likely to die in the hospital that persons with all
these signs of warning.
One in seven of those people without warning signs
died after suffering a heart attack, compared with one of
each 28 patients with all the factors of risk.
Singing and his colleagues demonstrated that patients with more
risk factors also tend to receive the medication within
of the first 24 hours of the hospital stay, or be
undergoing surgery.
Those who are warning signs would have been
early before the heart attack, or would have more regular contact
with their doctors, although there was no way of knowing that from
the data that was available, said Canto.
Is also possible that people without the factors of
traditional risk having other risks of health without measure,
that caused heart attacks and raised the possibility
of death, or that something in his bloodstream was different.
