Facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention.
M ultiple, large randomised trials comparing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with fibrinolytic therapy for ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) have shown that primary PCI results in lower rates of death, reinfarction, and stroke. Consequently, primary PCI has become the preferred reperfusion strategy for STEMI. Unfortunately, primary PCI is available in only a minority o...
متن کاملPaclitaxel-eluting versus uncoated stents in primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
BACKGROUND Drug-eluting coronary-artery stents have been shown to decrease restenosis and therefore the likelihood that additional procedures will be required after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We evaluated the use of a drug-eluting stent in patients undergoing PCI for acute myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation. METHODS We randomly assigned 619 patients presenting with...
متن کاملThrombus aspiration in primary coronary intervention.
CMAJ • JANUARY 11, 2011 • 183(1) © 2011 Canadian Medical Association or its licensors E68 An 84-year-old man presented to the emergency department with severe chest pain that had begun three hours earlier. He was a heavy smoker with a history of hypertension. On examination, his blood pressure was 120/64 mm Hg, his pulse was regular at 100 beats/min, and his respiratory rate was 20 breaths/min....
متن کاملThrombus aspiration for treating distal coronary macroemboli during primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
Percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) of thrombus-containing lesions are associated with increased risk of complications such as distal coronary embolisation and impaired coronary circulation. Although the use of thrombectomy devices to aspirate thrombus during primary PCI is currently not routinely recommended, there is growing evidence suggesting the use of thrombus aspiration catheters d...
متن کاملClinical and angiographic predictors and prognostic value of failed thrombus aspiration in primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
OBJECTIVES This study sought to investigate which factors are associated with failure of thrombus aspiration (TA) and if this has prognostic implications. BACKGROUND The pathophysiological mechanism and clinical benefit of TA during primary percutaneous coronary intervention for acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction is still in debate. METHODS Between August 2001 and October 2007...
