متن کاملStunning, hibernation, and assessment of myocardial viability.
The last 3 decades have witnessed an unprecedented improvement in the outcome of patients with acute coronary syndromes. The widespread use of thrombolytic therapy and percutaneous coronary interventions, in association with increasingly potent antithrombotic agents, has contributed to significant reductions in mortality and morbidity in these patients. Although overall survival has improved, a...
متن کاملMyocardial hibernation and stunning: from physiological principles to clinical practice.
In patients with coronary artery disease, one of the most powerful determinants of prognosis is left ventricular function. 2 Thus, if we assume that the prognostic benefit of revascularisation is mediated through an eVect on left ventricular function, two mechanisms might explain this benefit. First, coronary artery bypass surgery or angioplasty could reduce the impact of coronary artery diseas...
