Effect of Melatonin on Cardiac Injury after Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: a Randomized Controlled Trial
Several studies have reported that the antioxidant properties of melatonin can provide cardiac protection through scavenging of free radicals. This study sought to investigate the efficacy of melatonin on cardiac biomarkers, myocardial-specific protein high sensitive troponin-T (hs-TnT) and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoin...
متن کاملIntracoronary streptokinase after primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
BACKGROUND Microvascular perfusion is often impaired after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We proposed that in situ thrombosis might contribute to poor myocardial perfusion in this setting. To test this hypothesis, we evaluated the effect of low-dose intracoronary streptokinase administered immediately after primary PCI. METHODS Forty-one patients undergoing primary PCI were...
متن کاملPrimary percutaneous coronary intervention for all?
REPERFUSION THERAPY WITH THROMBOLYSIS OR PRImary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been a major advance in the treatment of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (MI), with a 25% reduction in mortality with thrombolysis. Primary PCI has been considered in the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) guidelines in 1999 to be an alternative to thro...
متن کاملIschemic postconditioning during primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
BACKGROUND Although some studies have shown potential benefit for ischemic postconditioning (IPoC) during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in improving surrogate markers of reperfusion and infarction size, the benefit of this approach on clinical outcomes remains unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS Electronic databases were searched for randomized clinical trials that compared IPoC v...
متن کاملRates of primary percutaneous coronary intervention worldwide.
BACKGROUND Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is at present the most effective procedure for reducing the mortality rate of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, there is a great difference between Japan and other countries in the rate of primary PCI. METHODS AND RESULTS Registration period, number of patients with AMI, rates of primary PCI or thrombolysis an...
