Slow-flow phenomenon after elective percutaneous coronary intervention of computed tomography-detected vulnerable coronary lesion
No-reflow or slow-flow phenomenon is one of the serious complications of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) in acute myocardial infarction, as well as during elective procedures, and is an independent predictor of myocardial infarction, and in-hospital and long-term mortality. We present a case of an elective PCI of native coronary artery lesion that was assessed to be vulnerable based o...
متن کاملDetermination of culprit lesion in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention by myocardial perfusion imaging.
UNLABELLED The aim of this study was to determine and localize culprit lesion by myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) in cases of angiographically detected coronary narrowing >or= 75% of at least one coronary artery. MATERIAL AND METHODS One hundred and thirty-two (132) patients with angiographically detected significant coronary narrowing (>or= 75% luminal stenosis of at least one major corona...
متن کاملMyocardial Perfusion Imaging in Diagnosis of Culprit Lesion in Patients Undergoing Elective Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) was developed in the 1970s and has been used increasingly in clinical cardiology since the 1980s (Underwood et al., 2004). Technical developments that have fuelled this recent increases are single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging, pharmacological stress and ECG-gated SPECT imaging. MPI comprises the only widely available method of assessing ...
متن کاملUse of multislice computed tomography angiography in percutaneous coronary intervention
The introduction of multislice computed tomography angiography (MSCT) has provided new information for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), especially in complex lesions. It provides valuable adjustments about coronary lesions, which are predictors of procedural success, for example, in chronic total occlusions, in bifurcations and recently in aorto-ostial lesion PCI. In multiple fields, t...
متن کاملSame day discharge after elective percutaneous coronary intervention.
Same-day percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a reality with modern interventional equipment and pharmaceutical agents. Elective PCI is rarely an inpatient procedure and is now predominantly considered an outpatient procedure. Approaches to safely manage elective patients through same-day PCI have been well described in the literature and demonstrate no safety signal compared with overni...
