Abstract Conclusion and Recommendation Several factors are associated with a higher incidence of left ventricular thrombi after first acute anterior MI. These factors include: higher initial end-systolic and end-diastolic volume, lower initial ejection fraction, a higher wall motion score index, killip class >1, a higher peak CRP, a higher peak CK-MB and higher peak troponin-T. We recommended that those patients should be followed up echocardiographically every month and must be received oral anticoagulant therapy. Limitation 1- Small number of patients. 2- Small number of the female (9 patients) so the relation between sex and LVT can’t be predicted. |
