primary percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with acute myocardial infarction
background: primary percutaneous coronary intervention (primary pci) is the method of choice in establishing reperfusion in acute myocardial infarction (ami) patients. the aim of this study was to determine the success rate of primary pci in a university medical center in iran with a view to promoting it as a first-line therapy in patients with ami, especially in centers with established cathet...
متن کاملEvaluation of ejection fraction in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
Introduction: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a reperfusion strategy to increase life expectancy and ejection fraction (EF) in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. We investigated the effect of location, severity, type of lesion, number and type of vessel involved and time of angioplasty on the increase in EF in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI (P-PCI) a...
متن کاملPrimary percutaneous coronary intervention in acute myocardial infarction.
Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has emerged as the preferred therapy for acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), as multiple randomized clinical trials and pooled analyses have shown improved clinical outcomes compared with medical reperfusion. Unfortunately, medical centers with 24-hour PCI capability are concentrated in urban areas, relegating many patients ...
متن کاملPercutaneous coronary intervention in acute myocardial infarction.
857 R of the infarct-related artery (IRA) by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) limits the size of the infarct and preserves left ventricular (LV) function. In the 1980s, various randomized trials using thrombolytics that enrolled thousands of patients with acute myocardial infarction with ST-elevation (STEMI) demonstrated the clear superiority of these agents over placebo in terms of maj...
متن کاملNo-Reflow Phenomenon in Patients with ST-Elevation Acute Myocardial Infarction, Treated with Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Study of Predictive Factors
Introduction: No-reflow phenomenon in coronary vessels, manifested in some patients with reperfused acute myocardial infarction (MI), is associated with poor clinical and functional outcomes. Therefore, evaluation of predisposing risk factors can be helpful in risk assessment and identification of patients at higher risk. Herein, we aimed to study the predictive factors for the development of...
