Myocardial blush grade and Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction flow grade in ST segment elevation myocardial infarction

coronary flow assessment in unstable angina/non st-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients via thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count in angiography

conclusions: patent coronaries of ua/nstemi patients have a trend to higher tfcs compared to normal values. presence of significant coronary lesions in these patients significantly increases tfc. objectives: the present study is aimed to measure the tfc in the coronary arteries of ua/nstemi patients to find abnormalities in diseased or patent vessels and compare with the normal values. patients...

Association of impaired thrombolysis in myocardial infarction myocardial perfusion grade with ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation following fibrinolytic therapy for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.

OBJECTIVES The goal of this analysis was to evaluate the association of impaired Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction myocardial perfusion grade (TMPG) with sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation (VF). BACKGROUND Impaired TMPG after successful restoration of epicardial flow among patients treated with fibrinolytic therapy for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarc...

Coronary Plaque Characteristics Associated With Reduced TIMI (Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction) Flow Grade in Patients With ST-Segment–Elevation Myocardial Infarction

ST-Segment Elevation in Acute Myocardial Infarction

Four hundred and four patients who were admitted to the hospital with their first myocardial infarction within 24 hours of the onset of symptoms were studied. In 315 patients the ECG findings in 12 standards leads (I, II, aVF, aVR, aVL, V,-V6) showed the infarction to be in the anterior wall, the inferior wall, or in multiple areas. The patients in each of these three categories were further su...

prediction of myocardial tissue loss by quantitative densitometric myocardial blush parameters following st-elevation myocardial infarction

tissue level myocardial perfusion is one of the most important prognostic factors after successful recanalisation of the occluded coronary artery in patients suffering acute st elevation myocardial infarction (stemi). the primary objective of the present study was to examine the relationship between videodensitometric myocardial perfusion parameters as assessed on coronary angiograms directly f...
