Randomized Comparison of Eptifibatide Versus Abciximab in Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With Acute ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Results of the EVA-AMI Trial [PDF]
ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to compare eptifibatide and abciximab as adjuncts to primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).BackgroundThe glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa receptor inhibitor abciximab as adjunct to primary PCI in patients with ST ...

Efficacy of intravenous eptifibatide in primary percutaneous coronary intervention patients
Early and complete restoration of blood flow in closed coronary arteries is the main goal in treating patients with myocardial infarction. Primary angioplasty is not always successful in establishing myocardial blood flow. Although the strategy of adding

Background. Optimal administration timing of Glicoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor in STEMI patients undergoing Primary PCI is controversial. Several stud -ies have shown that early administration of eptifibatide, which is given to patients with pain awitan of

Stroke in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndromes: Incidence and Outcomes in the Platelet Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa in Unstable Angina: Receptor Suppression Using Integrilin Therapy (PURSUIT) Trial [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The incidence of stroke in patients with acute coronary syndromes has not been clearly defined because few trials in this patient population have been large enough to provide stable estimates of stroke rates.

How safe is eptifibatide during urgent carotid artery stenting?
Background: Glycoprotein IIB/IIIA inhibitors are occasionally utilized during carotid artery stenting (CAS) in the presence or absence of a visualized intra-operative thrombus. Objective: We assess the hemorrhagic and clinical outcomes associated with

Platelet anesthesia with nitric oxide with or without eptifibatide during cardiopulmonary bypass in baboons [PDF]
Objective:This study tested the hypothesis that nitric oxide or nitric oxide and eptifibatide (Integrilin) reversibly inhibit platelet activation and consumption during cardiopulmonary bypass and rapidly restore platelet numbers and function after bypass.

Is glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antagonism as effective in women as in men following percutaneous coronary intervention? Lessons from the ESPRIT study [PDF]
ObjectivesThe study was done to determine whether eptifibatide, a platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa antagonist, prevents ischemic complications following percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) in women as well as in men.BackgroundEptifibatide ...

Cryo-EM structures of full-length integrin αIIbβ3 in native lipids
Platelet integrin αIIbβ3 is maintained in a bent inactive state (low affinity to physiologic ligand), but can rapidly switch to a ligand-competent (high-affinity) state in response to intracellular signals (“inside-out” activation).
