No-Reflow Phoenomenon by Intracoronary Thrombus in Acute Myocardial Infarction
نویسنده
چکیده
Recently, percutaneous coronary intervention has been the treatment of choice in most acute myocardial infarction cases. Although the results of percutaneous coronary interventions have ben good, the no-reflow phenomenon and distal embolization of intracoronary thrombus are still major problems even after successful interventions. In this article, we will briefly review the deleterious effects of no-reflow and distal embolization of intracoronary thrombus during percutaneous coronary interventions. The current trials focused on the prevention and treatment of the no-reflow phenomenon and intracoronary thrombus.

Combination therapy reduces the incidence of no-reflow after primary per-cutaneous coronary intervention in patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction
BACKGROUND No-reflow is associated with an adverse outcome and higher mortality in patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and is considered a dynamic process characterized by multiple pathogenetic components. The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a combination therapy for the prevention ...
متن کاملNo-Reflow Phenomenon in Patients with ST-Elevation Acute Myocardial Infarction, Treated with Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Study of Predictive Factors
Introduction: No-reflow phenomenon in coronary vessels, manifested in some patients with reperfused acute myocardial infarction (MI), is associated with poor clinical and functional outcomes. Therefore, evaluation of predisposing risk factors can be helpful in risk assessment and identification of patients at higher risk. Herein, we aimed to study the predictive factors for the development of...

BACKGROUND Intracoronary nitroprusside and thrombus aspiration have been demonstrated to improve myocardial perfusion during percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) for ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) However, no long-term clinical studies have been performed comparing these approaches. METHODS A single medical center retrospective study was conducted to evaluate th...

INTRODUCTION The presence of a large intracoronary thrombus burden is a major complicating factor during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The use of rheolytic thrombectomy (RT) has been proposed to prevent thrombus-related complications, with conflicting results. The purpose of this study was to identify the feasibility and safety of th...
متن کاملChronic pre-treatment of statins is associated with the reduction of the no-reflow phenomenon in the patients with reperfused acute myocardial infarction.
AIMS Early statin treatment has beneficial effects on prognosis after acute coronary syndrome. The no-reflow phenomenon determines the prognosis after acute myocardial infarction. We investigated the effects of statin treatment before admission on the development of the no-reflow after infarction. METHODS AND RESULTS We performed intracoronary myocardial contrast echocardiography in 293 conse...
