When timely angioplasty is unavailable to older ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients, a modified pharmaco-invasive reperfusion strategy could be reasonable, according to the ...
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is superior to thrombolysis in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, there is an unavoidable delay between the diagnosis of the AMI and the ...
(UPDATED) Giving crushed prasugrel tablets in the ambulance to STEMI patients with planned primary PCI does not improve reperfusion rates compared with giving the tablets whole, according to results ...
The first randomized trial to test whether adding a small, temporary pump to allow the heart to rest and intentionally delaying percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), also known as coronary ...
NEW ORLEANS, LA—When timely primary PCI is not possible, a pharmacoinvasive strategy of half-dose tenecteplase may provide a safe and effective reperfusion alternative in older patients with STEMI, ...
The advent of thrombolytic therapy initiated the era of pharmacologic reperfusion in the acute phase of myocardial infarction (MI). Although it was a major improvement in the treatment of acute MI ...
Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the standard treatment for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Although PCI is effective at opening the infarct-related artery, ...
