| description | A cross-sectional, descriptive and observational study was carried out in order to characterize the acute myocardial infarction in the Intensive Care Units of the first Integral Diagnosis Centers inaugurated by the Barrio Adentro Mission in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, since the implementation of the first Integral Medical Centers in 2008. A total of 240 patients with an acute myocardial infarction diagnosis were assisted. There was a predominance of the male patients and the white color of the skin. The stay of the patients at the Intensive Care Unit was of more than 7 days; and among the risk factors, the most prevalent one was dyslipidemia. Concerning the topography of the infarction, the most common was the anterior wall infarction. The general survival was much higher in the cases that received the thrombolytic therapy and the normal procedures of vital support. |
