Overview

Ve vývoji managementu komorových tachyarytmií a prevenci náhlé srdeční smrti po akutním infarktu myokardu (AIM) došlo k významu posunu. Encainid a další antiarytmické léky použité v studii CAST byly nejenom neúčinné, ale zvyšovaly mortalitu po infarktu myokardu. Amiodaron měl některé pozitivní účinky na arytmické příhody, aniž by zvyšoval míru přežívání, a přínos ICD ke zlepšení výsledků krátce po AIM se neprokázal. Na druhé straně přínos beta-blokátorů, angiotenzin konvertujících inhibitorů a antagonistů aldosteronu z hlediska krátkodobého a dlouhodobého přežívání po AIM je prokázán. Referát pojednává o roli nearytmické terapie v prevenci komorové tachyarytmie a náhlé srdeční smrti po AIM.

Klíčová slova:
komorová tachyarytmie – náhlá srdeční smrt – akutní infarkt myokardu
