Intravascular ultrasound correlates of corrected TIMI framecount.
The TIMI frame count (TFC) is an index of coronary blood flow, and a correction in TFC (CTFC) for left anterior descending artery (LAD) has also been proposed. However, the relationship between TFC and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) parameters of culprit coronary arteries has not been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate IVUS-derived correlates of TFC before and after stenting, a...
متن کاملIs the corrected TIMI frame count an independent predictor of adverse outcome?
Independent Predictor of Adverse Outcome? To the Editor: The corrected TIMI frame count (cTFC) has evolved into a standard measurement in many angiographic core laboratories. Although the reproducibility of the cTFC has been demonstrated,1,2 its superiority to TIMI flow grading has remained in question. Work done in our core laboratory has not found the cTFC to have predictive value independent...
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 کاملCorrected high-frame rate anchored ultrasound with software alignment.
PURPOSE To improve lingual ultrasound imaging with the corrected high frame rate anchored ultrasound with software alignment (CHAUSA; Miller, 2008) method. METHOD A production study of the IsiXhosa alveolar click is presented. Articulatory-to-acoustic alignment is demonstrated using a Tri-Modal 3-ms pulse generator. Images from 2 simultaneous data collection paths, using dominant ultrasound t...
متن کاملRelationship between corrected TIMI frame counts at three weeks and late survival after myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the corrected Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) frame count (CTFC) as a predictor of late survival after myocardial infarction. BACKGROUND Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction flow grades predict late survival after myocardial infarction. The CTFC provides a more reproducible measurement of infarct-related artery blood flow than the TIMI flow grade, and has ...
