An infarction (death of tissue due to decreased blood supply) of the anterior wall of the heart. That's the part of the hearts wall that faces out. It is a heart attack in a specific place of the heart.
Hi . Treatment of Anterior Mi should be based on lowering of myocardial O2 Demand and attempt to increasing myocardial O2 Supply.
for lowering O2 demand :we need
Complete Bed rest - relieve pain - reduce anxiety - reduce hypertension and treatment of Dysrhythmia .
for increasing O2 supply :
O2 therapy - thrombolitic therapy - PTCA- Surgery (CABG).
Damage to the wall of the heart preventing the muscle from pumping. Depending on the extent of the damage this can lead to heart failure if not diagnosed and treated. Symptons include shortness of breath, fatigue & swelling of hands and feet. Characterized as feeling like you are drowining.
An anterior infarct is an infarct affecting the anterior surface of the heart - meaning the portion facing forward just beneath the chest wall. Usually, the left anterior descending artery is involved. Old, means just what it says - it is not new or acute. This means sometime in the past, there may have been damage to the anterior surface of the heart which altered the electrical conduction of that portion of myocardium, leaving signs on the EKG.
An anterolateral infarct is tissue death due to compromised blood flow, found on the front and side of the organ.
Posteromedial is the antonym of anterolateral.

An anterolateral ligament is a ligament located on the outside front portion of the knee.
The anterolateral walls are at the front and sides. The posterolateral walls are at the back and sides.
MI stands for "myocardial infarction," commonly known as a heart attach. Anterolateral means at the side and front.
Bone infarct refers to ischemic death of the cellular elements of the bone and marrow.
t-wave adnormalities can be related to ischemia in the anterolateral muscle of the heart or could be caused by other factors such as electrolyte abnormalities.
Anterolateral means at the front and side. Thinning has the same meaning as in common language. Anterolatereal thinning of the hair, for instance, means progressive baldness in the widow's peak formation.
