Myocardial infarction, also called a heart attack, is a frequent nursing exam and NCLEX topic that requires understanding of its pathophysiology, signs and symptoms, and treatments.
This video covers the risk factors for MI like hypertension, hyperlipidemia, smoking, and family history that can lead to atherosclerosis and blocked coronary arteries. Key signs and symptoms of an MI include chest pain, shortness of breath, sweating, and left arm or jaw pain that require immediate medical attention. Managing an MI involves oxygen, nitroglycerin, morphine, aspirin and potential interventions like thrombolytic therapy, cardiac catheterization or CABG surgery. Reviewing the major characteristics of an acute MI including ECG changes, cardiac enzyme levels, and patient teaching will prepare you for MI questions on nursing exams and the NCLEX.
