Independent predictors of in-hospital outcomes following coronary stent implantation.
OBJECTIVE To identify the clinical and angiographic predictors of early outcome following coronary stent implantation. METHODS Nine hundred and forty-six patients (pt) [61.04 +/- 10.98 years old, range 31 to 91] underwent stent implantation; 580 male (61.3%). Procedural success was defined when a pt had at least one vessel successfully dilated with a residual stenosis < 20%. Clinical success ...
متن کاملSinus arrest following right coronary artery stent implantation
Sinus arrest rarely occurs during acute myocardial infarction involving the right coronary artery (RCA) and sinus node (SN) artery. We report a rare case of sinus arrest caused by SN artery occlusion following RCA stenting. A 56-year-old woman with a significant history of RCA stenosis with prior bare metal stenting, presented to the emergency department with anginal chest pain. Initial work up...
متن کاملCoronary rupture during stent implantation.
A 69-year-old patient with unstable angina presented to cardiac catheterization with a tight lesion in the mid right coronary artery (Figure 1A) and moderate lesions in the left main and left anterior descending coronary arteries. During coronary angioplasty, a stent was electively implanted in the right coronary artery, with good initial results. However, during subsequent aggressive, high-pre...
متن کاملStatin therapy, inflammation and recurrent coronary events in patients following coronary stent implantation.
OBJECTIVES We sought to investigate whether statin therapy affects the association between preprocedural C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and the risk for recurrent coronary events in patients undergoing coronary stent implantation. BACKGROUND Low-grade inflammation as detected by elevated CRP levels predicts the risk of recurrent coronary events. The effect of inflammation on coronary risk ma...
متن کاملAdjunctive stent implantation following directional coronary atherectomy in patients with coronary artery disease.
OBJECTIVES This prospective case-control study evaluated the acute and long-term results of stent implantation preceded by debulking of the plaque by means of directional coronary atherectomy. BACKGROUND In comparison with balloon angioplasty, intracoronary stenting produces a larger luminal diameter, maintains artery patency and reduces the incidence of restenosis. Optimal stent deployment i...
