coronary slow flow phenomenon clinical findings and predictors
conclusions the scf phenomenon is relatively frequent, particularly among patients with acute coronary syndrome who are scheduled for coronary angiography. hypertension, a low hdl-c level, and high hemoglobin level can be considered independent predictors of this phenomenon. results among the 3600 patients scheduled for selective coronary angiography, 75 (2%) met the scf criteria. scf and neca ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Electrocardiogram Changes in Patients with Slow Coronary Flow
Background: Slow coronary flow (SCF) is defined as a condition in which in spite of no evidence of coronary occlusion or stenosis in angiography, there is delayed pacification of the vessels after the injection of a contrast agent. There are several studies about electrocardiogram (ECG) changes in these patients, but changes like OLD MI, RBBB, LBBB, LVH and ST-T wave have not b...
متن کاملPredictors of slow flow in angiographically normal coronary arteries.
INTRODUCTION Slow coronary flow (SCF) is a well-known angiographic finding; however, the pathophysiology of SCF remains only partially understood. In this study, we have examined the risk factors of slow coronary flow. METHODS Seventy patients with angiographically proven SCF were studied along with 60 control participants. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on the angiographic finding...
متن کاملCoronary Slow Flow Phenomenon Clinical Findings and Predictors
BACKGROUND In some patients with chest pain, selective coronary angiography reveals slow contrast agent passage through the epicardial coronary arteries in the absence of stenosis. This phenomenon has been designated the slow coronary flow (SCF) phenomenon. OBJECTIVES In this study, we aimed to describe the demographic and clinical findings and presence of common atherosclerosis risk factors ...
متن کاملCoronary Slow Flow
oronary angiography (CAG) is the gold standard for diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD). Of all patients referred for angiography, up to 20% have normal coronary arteries.1,2 Though noncoronary causes of chest pain may be identified in this population with normal coronaries, it has long been recognized that angina may still be present. An example of this is cardiovascular syndrome X, a co...
