Myocardial Viability Testing in the Management of Ischemic Heart Failure
Although major advances have occurred lately in medical therapy, ischemic heart failure remains an important cause of death and disability. Viable myocardium represents a cause of reversible ischemic left ventricular dysfunction.

Bivalirudin during primary PCI in acute myocardial infarction. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Treatment with the direct thrombin inhibitor bivalirudin, as compared with heparin plus glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors, results in similar suppression of ischemia while reducing hemorrhagic complications in patients with stable angina and ...

Management of Myocardial Revascularization in Patients With Stable Coronary Artery Disease Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation. [PDF]
BACKGROUND The best management of stable coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is still unclear due to the marked inconsistency of the available evidence.

MYOCARDIAL REVASCULARIZATION [PDF]
Atherosclerotic coronary artery disease causes more morbidity, mortality and loss of economic capacity than any other group of diseases. The modalities of revascularization of the myocardium have undergone rapid advances with emphasis shifting alternately from medical methods to surgical.
