TIMI frame count immediately after primary coronary angioplasty as a predictor of functional recovery in patients with TIMI 3 reperfused acute myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether higher coronary blood flow, estimated by the corrected Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) frame count (CTFC), is related to better functional and clinical outcome after successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). BACKGROUND Experimental studies have f...
متن کاملINTERVENTIONAL CARDIOLOGY AND SURGERY Relation between the TIMI frame count and the degree of microvascular injury after primary coronary angioplasty in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction
Objective: To investigate the relation between thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) frame count (TFC) and coronary blood flow velocity (CBFV) parameters reflecting the degree of microvascular injury in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Results: TFC and CBFV were measured after primary coronary angioplasty in 103 consecutive patients with their first anterior wall acute myocardi...
متن کاملCoronary flow velocity immediately after primary coronary stenting as a predictor of ventricular wall motion recovery in acute myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the pattern of coronary blood flow velocity immediately after successful primary stenting and the recovery of left ventricular (LV) wall motion in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). BACKGROUND It is difficult to predict the recovery of LV wall motion immediately after direct angioplasty in AMI. Recent r...
متن کاملPlatelet-To-Lymphocyte Ratio as a Predictor of No-Reflow after Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients with ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Introduction: No-reflow increases the complications and mortality rate of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Therefore, it is important to identify patients at a higher risk of developing no-reflow. This study aimed to systematically review the prognostic value of the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) to predict no-reflow. Materials and Methods:</s...
متن کاملPrediction of restenosis after coronary angioplasty by use of a new index: TIMI frame count/minimal luminal diameter ratio.
BACKGROUND It has been shown recently that postangioplasty coronary flow reserve and the degree of residual stenosis have a modest predictive value for short- and long-term clinical outcomes after coronary angioplasty. Corrected TIMI frame count (CTFC) is a simple quantitative index of coronary blood flow. Its relationship with Doppler coronary flow velocity and clinical outcome after coronary ...
