Coronary flow velocity reserve does not correlate with TIMI frame count in patients undergoing non-emergency percutaneous coronary intervention.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this research was to compare the Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) frame count (CTFC) with coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). BACKGROUND The relationship between CTFC and CFVR has not been adequately assessed in patients with coronary artery disease. METHODS We studied 62 patients who un...
متن کاملCorrected thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count and ejection fraction in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention for myocardial infarction
BACKGROUND This study aimed to assess the associations between corrected thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count (CTFC) of the infarct-related artery (IRA) and ejection fraction (EF) after three-six months in patients who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS CTFC was determined by a digital system...
متن کاملRelationship of the TIMI myocardial perfusion grades, flow grades, frame count, and percutaneous coronary intervention to long-term outcomes after thrombolytic administration in acute myocardial infarction.
BACKGROUND Although 90-minute TIMI flow grades (TFGs), corrected TIMI frame counts (CTFCs), and TIMI myocardial perfusion grades (TMPGs) have been associated with 30-day outcomes, we hypothesized that these indices would be related to long-term outcomes after thrombolytic administration. METHODS AND RESULTS As a substudy of the TIMI 10B trial (tissue plasminogen activator versus tenecteplase)...
متن کاملTIMI frame count immediately after primary coronary angioplasty as a predictor of functional recovery in patients with TIMI 3 reperfused acute myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether higher coronary blood flow, estimated by the corrected Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) frame count (CTFC), is related to better functional and clinical outcome after successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). BACKGROUND Experimental studies have f...
متن کاملIntravascular ultrasound correlates of corrected TIMI framecount.
The TIMI frame count (TFC) is an index of coronary blood flow, and a correction in TFC (CTFC) for left anterior descending artery (LAD) has also been proposed. However, the relationship between TFC and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) parameters of culprit coronary arteries has not been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate IVUS-derived correlates of TFC before and after stenting, a...
