Six-Month Follow-Up Study
Background—We previously demonstrated that treatment with antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) during the first 6 weeks after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation reduces the incidence of clinically significant atrial arrhythmias and need for cardioversion or hospitalization for arrhythmia management. Whether early rhythm suppression decreases longer-term arrhythmia recurrence is unknown. We now report the...
متن کاملAngiographic and intravascular ultrasound predictors of in-stent restenosis.
OBJECTIVES This study was performed to determine predictors of in-stent restenosis from a high volume, single-center practice. BACKGROUND Intracoronary stents have been shown to reduce the restenosis rate as compared with balloon angioplasty, but in-stent restenosis continues to be an important clinical problem. METHODS Between April 1993 and March 1997, 1,706 patients with 2,343 lesions we...
متن کاملTwo-Year Follow-Up of the Quantitative Angiographic and Volumetric Intravascular Ultrasound Analysis After Nonpolymeric Paclitaxel-Eluting Stent Implantation
OBJECTIVES This study used serial angiographic and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) analysis to evaluate the long-term efficacy of a nonpolymeric, paclitaxel-eluting stent coating on intimal hyperplasia (IH) 2 years after implantation. BACKGROUND Long-term efficacy of patients treated with nonpolymeric paclitaxel-eluting stents beyond 1 year has not been well determined. METHODS Patients were ra...
متن کاملFour-year angiographic and intravascular ultrasound follow-up of patients treated with sirolimus-eluting stents.
BACKGROUND Despite the proven superiority of sirolimus-eluting stents (SESs) compared with bare stents in the first year after implantation, long-term outcomes of patients treated with these novel devices remain unknown. Our goal was to evaluate the clinical, angiographic, and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) outcomes of patients treated with SESs 4 years after implantation. METHODS AND RESULT...
متن کاملSix-Month Clinical and Angiographic Follow-up After Direct Angioplasty for Acute Myocardial Infarction
Background After direct angioplasty in the setting of acute myocardial infarction, patients were followed clinically and angiographically for 6 months at six experienced centers to evaluate outcomes. Methods and Results Of 258 patients with 6-month follow-up after surviving initial hospitalization, 5 (2%) died, 8 (3%) had nonfatal infarctions, 56 (22%) had chest pain, ofwhom 25 (10%) required h...
