Coronary flow evaluation by TIMI frame count and magnetic resonance flow velocity in patients with coronary artery ectasia.
PURPOSE Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is defined as a dilatation of an arterial segment to a diameter at least 1.5 times that of the adjacent artery. It is characterized by slow flow, predisposing to thrombosis. The TIMI frame count (TFC) technique has been successfully used for the assessment of coronary flow velocity using coronary angiograms (CA). Our aim was to compare TFC with magnetic res...
متن کاملEffects of co-existence of coronary stenosis and the extent of coronary ectasia on the TIMI frame count in patients with coronary artery ectasia.
The measurement of the thrombosis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) frame count is a simple method for evaluating coronary blood flow. Although it is well known that slow coronary flow is present in patients with coronary artery ectasia (CAE), the effects of coexisting stenosis and the severity of ectatic involvement on coronory flow have not been adequately studied. Thus, we examined (1) the eff...
متن کاملImportance of the TIMI frame count: implications for future trials
Although the TIMI (Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction) flow grade classification scheme is widely used to assess angiographic outcomes, it is limited by poor reproducibility and its categoric nature. The corrected TIMI frame count (CTFC) is a simple, more objective continuous variable index of coronary blood flow that can be broadly and inexpensively applied. This measure of the time for dye...
متن کاملCoronary microvascular dysfunction in patients with microvascular angina: analysis by TIMI frame count.
We have previously reported that angina pectoris persists in patients with coronary microvascular spasm (MVS) even on calcium channel blockers. Because measurement of myocardial lactate production in the coronary sinus is necessary to diagnose MVS, a more feasible diagnostic method needs to be developed. In this study, we examined the diagnostic significance of Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarc...
متن کاملبررسی ارتباط اختلال عملکرد دیاستولیک و شمارش فریم‌های آنژیوگرافیک در بیماران عروق کرونر
Background: Evaluation of diastolic dysfunction and its relationship with TIMI frame count in patients with stable coronary artery disease referred to Ayatollah Taleghani Hospital in Tehran in the years 2010-2011 is the purpose of this study.Methods: Patients were divided into two groups: case and control. Both groups had chronic angina. Patient information on check list has been studies based ...
