Dipyridamole echocardiography test. A new tool for detecting jeopardized myocardium after thrombolytic therapy.
BACKGROUND We wished to assess whether dipyridamole echocardiography test (DET) can detect jeopardized myocardium after thrombolytic therapy. METHODS AND RESULTS Seventy-six consecutive patients with a first acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were treated with 2 million IU urokinase i.v. within 4 hours of the onset of AMI and underwent high-dose (as much as 0.84 mg/kg over 10 minutes) DET 8-10...

Background. We wished to assess whether dipyridamole echocardiography test (DET) can detect jeopardized myocardium after thrombolytic therapy. Methods and Results. Seventy-six consecutive patients with a first acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were treated with 2 million IU urokinase i.v. within 4 hours of the onset of AMI and underwent high-dose (as much as 0.84 mg/kg over 10 minutes) DET 8-10...
متن کاملOral vs intravenous dipyridamole echocardiography for detecting coronary artery disease.
The usefulness of the intravenous dipyridamole-echocardiography test (12-lead and two-dimensional [2-D] echo monitoring during dipyridamole infusion) in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease recently has been suggested. However, the intravenous form of dipyridamole is not available for clinical use in some countries and therefore the administration of oral dipyridamole has been employed in c...
متن کاملComparison of dobutamine stress echocardiography with dipyridamole stress echocardiography for detection of viable myocardium after myocardial infarction treated with thrombolysis.
OBJECTIVE To compare the ability of dobutamine and dipyridamole stress echocardiography to detect functional recovery of stunned but viable myocardial regions early after acute myocardial infarction, and to predict late functional recovery of the reperfusion salvaged myocardium within the infarct area. METHODS Within 10 d of acute myocardial infarction, 51 patients--30 anterior and 21 inferio...
متن کاملDipyridamole echocardiography: the bedside stress test for coronary artery disease.
Identification of dipyridamole-induced regional wall motion abnormalities by echocardiography has recently been proposed as an alternative diagnostic stress test for coronary artery disease. This study evaluates this new technique by comparing the results obtained (overall, regionally and by abnormality type) with those of thallium-201 myocardial imaging after dipyridamole stress in 25 patients...
