“…These means were higher than in other international studies, considering cases of UA (mean 8.3 days), but similar to patients with AMI (mean 9.7 days) (12) . The obtained result was also higher than in Brazilian studies (14)(15)(16) . In this context, other studies are due to evaluate whether the long stay at the study institution is due to the attended patients' clinical evolution, the therapeutic conduct or organizational and structural problems, such as examination scheduling, human and material resources, which are contributing to the patients' longer hospital stay.…”

“…O grupo com AI apresentou idade mais avançada que os infartados (60,5 versus 56,4), assim como no ENACT (FOX ET AL, 2000). Em relação ao total de pacientes, a média de 58 anos foi semelhante a de outros estudos com pacientes com DAC (HUEB et al, 2004;KIESSLING;HERIKSSON, 2007;MELO;FERREIRA, 2007;REIS et al, 2007;SANT'ANNA et al, 2010). Há de se considerar que o dado "idade" foi coletado no nosso estudo na internação do primeiro episódio de SCA, o que talvez possa indicar que esses pacientes tenham sido acometidos pela doença mais precocemente que os de outras populações, já que os outros estudos não evidenciam os resultados como sendo do primeiro evento de SCA.…”

“…Outros estudos apresentaram resultados semelhantes com relação à prevalência da HAS entre os pacientes diagnosticados com DAC (BERWANGER et al, 2012;PEIXOTO et al., 2007;SOUZA et al, 2008), dislipidemia (SOTO et al, 2005) e DM (BERWANGER et al, 2012;OLIVEIRA et al, 2010;SANT'ANNA et al, 2010;SANTOS, 2008;SANTOS et al, 2006;SOTO et al, 2005). No entanto, em relação ao grupo dos infartados, foram encontradas frequências mais elevadas de fatores de risco cardiovasculares em nosso estudo (FOX et al, 2010;KIESSLING;HENRIKSSON, 2007).…”
