- To improve the prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) if treatment by early instituting treatment, we initiated a media campaign during 1 year with the intention to reduce delay times and increase ambulance use in patients with acute chest pain. This article describes the outcome during 3 years after the campaign was finished. The median delay time in patients with AMI was reduced from 3 hours 0 min before the campaign to 2 hours 20 minutes during the year of the campaign (P < .001). The median delay time remained at a similar level (2 hours 20 min) during the 3 years after the campaign. Ambulance use was not affected during or after the campaign. It can be concluded that a media campaign resulted in a reduction of delay times not only during the campaign, but also during 3 years after its performance, whereas ambulance use was not affected.

- Since 1980 an Emergency Medical Service (EMS) system with a two-tier ambulance service has been operating in Göteborg. During this 12-year period, all cardiac arrests outside hospital have been monitored. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training for the general public began in 1985 and, by the end of 1992, 125 000 persons had been trained. The aim of this study was to define the factors associated with an increased chance of survival after cardiac arrest witnessed out-of-hospital and secondary to ventricular fibrillation. The study group comprises all patients with cardiac arrest witnessed outside hospital in Göteborg between 1980 and 1992, in whom CPR was initiated by our EMS and ventricular fibrillation observed at the first ECG recording. In a multivariate analysis of age, sex, time of collapse, interval between collapse and first defibrillation, bystander-initiated CPR, the following factors were associated with an increased chance of being discharged from hospital: (1) Short interval between collapse and first defibrillation (P < 0.001); (2) Bystander-initiated CPR (P < 0.001); and (3) Age (P < 0.05). Among patients with an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest who were found by the EMS personnel to have ventricular fibrillation, the predictors of survival were: interval between collapse and defibrillation, bystander-initiated CPR and age.

- BACKGROUND: A high proportion of patients admitted to a medical emergency department due to chest pain are directly sent home, since the initial suspicion of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) can be quickly ruled out. AIM: To describe the outcome of such patients during 1 year of follow-up in terms of mortality, development of AMI, and especially severity of symptoms 1 year after discharge. METHODS: All patients who during 21 months were admitted to the medical emergency department at Sahlgrenska Hospital, Göteborg, Sweden, due to chest pain, and who could be directly sent home, were prospectively followed up for 1 year. Their outcome was compared with patients who had chest pain and were hospitalized for AMI during the same time. RESULTS: Patients with chest pain directly sent home (n = 2,102) had a median age of 52 years (age range, 16 to 96 years), and 54 percent were men. The mortality during 1 year was 3 percent, and 3 percent developed AMI. As compared with patients with AMI, those who were directly sent home less frequently reported various cardiovascular symptoms, with the exception for chest pain at rest and palpitations. On the other hand, various emotional and psychosomatic symptoms were more frequently reported by patients who were directly sent home than by patients with AMI. CONCLUSION: Patients who came to a medical emergency department due to chest pain, and who were sent home, had a low risk of death and development of infarction during the following year. Survivors after 1 year do, however, more frequently report emotional and psychosomatic symptoms than survivors of AMI.

- In a high proportion of patients hospitalized due to suspected acute myocardial infarction (AMI) the diagnosis cannot be confirmed. The majority of these patients have ischemic heart disease and are at risk for subsequent cardiac events. The aim of this study was to describe the severity of symptoms and various aspects of well-being 1 year after hospitalization due to suspected AMI in surviving patients in whom the diagnosis was not confirmed, and to relate the observations to those found among survivors of a confirmed AMI. All patients admitted to Sahlgrenska Hospital, Göteborg, due to suspected AMI and who were alive after 1 year were asked to answer a questionnaire including questions regarding cardiovascular, psychiatric, and psychological symptoms. Patients in whom AMI was not confirmed reported more cardiovascular symptoms, for example, chest pain (p < 0.001), dyspnea (p < 0.01), palpitations (p < 0.001), and fatigue (p < 0.01) when compared with patients who suffered confirmed AMI. The majority of psychosomatic and psychological parameters evaluated were also more frequently reported by these patients and their quality of life seems to be worse compared with survivors of AMI.
