Adjunctive thrombectomy and distal protection in primary percutaneous coronary intervention: impact on microvascular perfusion and outcomes.
A significant proportion of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction have persistent impairment of microvascular blood flow despite successful reperfusion of epicardial vessels. Microvascular dysfunction has been associated with larger infarct size, increased predisposition to ventricular arrhythmias, heart failure, cardiogenic shock, recurrent myocardial infarction, and death. It remai...
متن کاملPrimary percutaneous coronary intervention for all?
REPERFUSION THERAPY WITH THROMBOLYSIS OR PRImary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been a major advance in the treatment of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (MI), with a 25% reduction in mortality with thrombolysis. Primary PCI has been considered in the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) guidelines in 1999 to be an alternative to thro...
متن کاملPercutaneous Coronary Intervention and Adjunctive Pharmacotherapy in Women
More than 1.2 million percutaneous coronary interventions are performed annually in the United States, withonly an estimated 33% performed in women, despite the established benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention andadjunctive pharmacotherapy in reducing fatal and nonfatal ischemic complications in acute myocardial infarction andhigh-risk acute coronary syndromes. This statem...
متن کاملAdjunctive pharmacologic agents and mechanical devices in primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) has been shown to be superior to thrombolysis in patients presenting with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) in reducing death, stroke and re-infarction. However, bleeding and thrombotic complications can occur despite successful PPCI and slow fl ow/no-reflow or poor microvascular reperfusion can occur in a significant mino...
متن کاملEffect of Melatonin on Cardiac Injury after Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Several studies have reported that the antioxidant properties of melatonin can provide cardiac protection through scavenging of free radicals. This study sought to investigate the efficacy of melatonin on cardiac biomarkers, myocardial-specific protein high sensitive troponin-T (hs-TnT) and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoin...
