804-4 A Randomized, Double-blind Trial of Streptokinase Versus Placebo for the Management of Unstable Angina and Non-Q-wave Myocardial Infarction in Patients with Previous Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery [PDF]
This trial investigated the potential usefulness of thrombolysis in patients with previous coronary artery bypass surgery admired for unstable angina and non-Q-wave myocardial infarction, the rationale being more frequent non-Q-wave infarction in these ...
