| BACKGROUND Differentiating occlusion of the circumflex branch of the left coronary artery (also called the circumflex artery) from occlusion of the right coronary artery is often difficult because either may be associated with a pattern of acute inferior myocardial infarction on the electrocardiogram. The National Heart Foundation of Australia (NHFA) will partner with nurses to develop and implement strategies that aim to raise awareness of the warning signs of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and the benefits of early, appropriate action in this life threatening situation. We therefore undertook serial testing of multiple cardiac markers used to diagnose early- and late-stage myocardial injury in the same group of middle-aged runners before and sequentially after five Boston Marathons over 4 years. |
