Effect of therapy hypothermia on hemodynamic status of post cardiac arrest in acute myocardial infarction

Abstract

Objective

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Therapy Hypothermia on hemodynamic status in acute myocardial infarction post cardiac arrest.

Method

This study used a quasi-experiment, with a one-group pre-post test. Accidental sampling used with 12 participants. The study was conducted on patients who had just entered the Intensive Cardiovascular Care Unit (ICVCU) with acute myocardial infarction. Therapy Hypothermia was started used blanketrol set at 32–34 °C for 24 h, then level of consciousness, systolic, dyastolic, Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP), Heart Rate (HR), Respiratory Rate (RR), Temperature taken before and after intervention. Analysis used dependent T-test.

Result

Showed effectiveness of hypothermia therapy on the hemodynamic status of acute myocardial infarction post cardiac arrest, which level of consciousness, Systolic, Dyastolic, MAP, HR, RR and Temperature obtained p value < 0.05.

Conclusion

Therapy hypotermia is one standardized to stabilized hemodynamic status of acute myocardial infarction post cardiac arrest.
