Abstract
Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a major cause of death globally. Bangladesh has a high prevalence of CAD, especially in urban areas. Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a serious condition that occurs when there’s a blockage in the coronary arteries. Electrolyte imbalances, such as magnesium deficiency, can worsen AMI. Objectives: To evaluate the association between serums magnesium level on in-hospital acute myocardial infarction outcomes. Study Design and Methods: This prospective study recruited 110 patients diagnosed with AMI in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Researchers measured serum magnesium levels, monitored patients, and recorded clinical outcomes. Results: The study found that patients with lower magnesium levels were more likely to experience complications such as arrhythmias, cardiogenic shock, and left ventricular dysfunction. Conclusion: The study highlights the importance of monitoring magnesium levels in AMI patients. However, more research is needed to determine the optimal magnesium level and its impact on patient outcomes.
