There is no difference between old inferior infarction and infarction, they are the same disease.
The term “old inferior wall infarction” refers to old inferior wall myocardial infarction, which is a more standardized term.
Obsolete lower wall myocardial infarction, refers to acute lower wall myocardial infarction 6 to 8 weeks after the necrotic myocardial tissue gradually formed scar healing, left behind myocardial scar.
The diagnosis of old inferior wall myocardial infarction is mainly based on the patient’s past medical history, symptomatic manifestations, electrocardiogram or cardiac imaging, of which electrocardiogram and cardiac imaging are the key indicators.
Patients with old inferior wall myocardial infarction usually have no obvious symptoms, but some patients may have symptoms such as chest tightness and panic.
The treatment of this disease mainly lies in preventing recurrence of acute myocardial infarction and delaying ventricular remodeling, mainly through medication, which can use anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy under the guidance of physicians, together with statins to regulate blood lipids.
