Abstract

V originále

Acute myocardial infarction is defined as myocardial necrosis, which develops from sustained ischemia lasting longer than 30 min. During approximately 2 weeks, the necrosis heals by fibrotic scar from the periphery toward the center of ischemia. This scar matures and remodels within 2 months following the myocardial infarction [1]. Ventricular arrhythmias complicate all phases of myocardial infarction and they can result in a life-threatening condition.
