Post-procedural TIMI flow grade 2 is not associated with improved prognosis in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary revascularization (PL-ACS registry).
BACKGROUND The impact of final Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow in the infarct-related artery (IRA) on outcomes in non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarc-tion (NSTEMI) patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of post-procedural TIMI flow in IRA on outcomes in NSTEMI patients undergoing percutaneous co...
متن کاملBeyond TIMI III flow.
The Western Washington Intracoronary Streptokinase randomized trial1 first demonstrated that intracoronary thrombolytic therapy improved survival for patients presenting within 12 hours of symptom onset of acute myocardial infarction (MI). Perhaps equally important, this invasive study demonstrated that in-hospital and long-term survival was greatly improved in patients with patent infarctrelat...
متن کاملImportance of TIMI 3 flow.
Since the advent of reperfusion therapy for acute ST elevation myocardial infarction, the “open artery hypothesis” proposed that benefit is achieved from early reperfusion of the occluded coronary artery, which limits the size of infarction, reduces the degree of left ventricular dysfunction, and improves survival.1 After numerous studies confirmed the benefit of a patent infarct-related artery...
متن کاملReperfusion revisited: beyond TIMI 3 flow.
Therapy for acute myocardial infarction has advanced dramatically since the early 1980s with the use of early intravenous fibrinolytic therapy. Combining low-dose fibrinolysis and platelet lysis appears to provide an additional increase in infarct-related artery (IRA) patency, but the large-scale mortality reduction trials evaluating this strategy are just getting under way. Recently, considera...
متن کاملComparison of the seven-year predictive value of six risk scores in acute coronary syndrome patients: GRACE, TIMI STEMI, TIMI NSTEMI, SIMPLE, ZWOLLE and BANACH.
BACKGROUND AND AIM To compare the long-term predictive value of six risk scores in a seven-year follow-up of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients. METHODS We followed 906 patients diagnosed with ACS for seven years prospectively. The following risk scores (RS) were calculated: TIMI STEMI, TIMI NSTEMI, GRACE, SIMPLE, ZWOLLE and BANACH. Based on the survival data, the predictive value for eac...
