Digitalization and clinical decision tools
Herz. 2024 Mar 7. doi: 10.1007/s00059-024-05242-5. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDigitalization in cardiovascular emergencies is rapidly evolving, analogous to the development in medicine, driven by the increasingly broader availability of digital structures and improved networks, electronic health records and the interconnectivity of systems. The potential use of digital health in patients with acute chest pain starts even in the prehospital phase with the transmission of a digital electrocardiogram (ECG) as well as telemedical support and digital emergency management, which facilitate optimization of the rescue pathways ...

Acute prevention of a  heart attack : Early identification of prodromal symptoms as the Rosetta Stone in decoding the heart attack problem
Herz. 2024 Mar 6. doi: 10.1007/s00059-024-05239-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTChest discomfort before severe chest pain represents a marker of clinical ischemia and indicates live myocardium in jeopardy and often precedes cardiac arrest or acute myocardial infarction (MI). The intermittent or "stuttering" symptoms that precede MI are referred to as "prodromal symptoms." These symptoms have been shown to correlate with cyclic ST changes and repeated episodes of spontaneous reperfusion and occlusion, occurring during a period of hours or days before the acute ischemia proceeds to death or heart damage. These symptoms of p...
