AI Insight
⚡ TL;DR(Too Long; Didn't Read)

Although it is assumed that patients can develop awareness of the fear of COVID-19, measures should be taken to assist patients at high risk of cardiovascular disease and should be guided to ensure timely access to the hospital in the acute events.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:This study has been conducted to evaluate the relationship between the time between the onset of the first symptoms and the admission to the hospital, and the fear of COVID-19 in individuals who had Myocardial Infarction (STEMI-NSTEMI) in the current COVID-19 pandemic.
📊
Key Findings & Data:This descriptive study was conducted with 31 patients who applied to a training and research hospital, met the diagnostic criteria for STEMI and NSTEMI and underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPKG), between 10 December 2020 and 10 March 2021, the anniversary of the first case detection in our country.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:Although it is assumed that patients can develop awareness of the fear of COVID-19, measures should be taken to assist patients at high risk of cardiovascular disease and should be guided to ensure timely access to the hospital in the acute events.

Abstract

This study has been conducted to evaluate the relationship between the time between the onset of the first symptoms and the admission to the hospital, and the fear of COVID-19 in individuals who had Myocardial Infarction (STEMI-NSTEMI) in the current COVID-19 pandemic. This descriptive study was conducted with 31 patients who applied to a training and research hospital, met the diagnostic criteria for STEMI and NSTEMI and underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPKG), between 10 December 2020 and 10 March 2021, the anniversary of the first case detection in our country. Thirty-one patients with the same diagnosis, who had PPCG at the same time one year ago, were included in the study as the control group. While the time between the first symptom and admission to the hospital was 33.95±61.64 (median 2 hours) hours during the non-COVID -19 pandemic period, it was determined to be 264±586.064 (median 12 hours) hours during the pandemic period, and the difference between them was found to be significant. According to the multiple regression analysis, it was determined that there was no relationship between the treatment delayment during the COVID-19 period and the patients' fear of COVID-19. Although it is assumed that patients can develop awareness of the fear of COVID-19, measures should be taken to assist patients at high risk of cardiovascular disease and should be guided to ensure timely access to the hospital in the acute events.

Özet

Bu çalışma içinde bulunduğumuz COVID-19 pandemisinde Miyokard Enfarktüsü (STEMI-NSTEMI) geçiren bireylerin ilk semptomların başlaması ile hastaneye başvurusu arasında geçen süre ile COVID-19 korkusu arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Tanımlayıcı türdeki bu çalışma 10 Aralık 2020 ile ülkemizde ilk vakanın saptanmasının yıldönümü olan 10 Mart 2021 tarihi arasında, bir eğitim ve araştırma hastanesine başvuran, STEMI ve NSTEMI tanı kriterlerine uyan ve primer perkütan koroner girişim (PPKG) yapılan 31 hasta ile yapıldı. Bir yıl önce aynı zaman aralığında PPKG yapılan, aynı tanıya sahip 31 hasta kontrol grubu olarak çalışmaya dahil edildi. COVID-19 pandemisi öncesinde hastaların ilk semptom ile hastaneye başvuru arasında geçen süre 33.95±61.64 (median 2 saat) saat iken, pandemi döneminde bu sürenin 264±586.064 (median 12 saat) saat olduğu ve aralarındaki farkın anlamlı olduğu belirlendi. Yapılan çoklu regresyon analizine göre COVID-19 döneminde ertelenen tedavi ile hastaların COVID-19 korkusu arasında bir ilişki olmadığı saptandı. Hastaların COVID-19 korkusuna karşı farkındalık geliştirebilecekleri varsayılsa da yüksek kardiyovasküler hastalık riskine sahip hastalara yardımcı olmak için önlemler alınmalı ve akut olaylar durumunda hastaneye zamanında erişim sağlamaları için rehberlik edilmelidir.
