Efficacy of primary PCI: the microvessel perspective [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal Supplements, 2005
The outcome of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is critically dependent on adequate reperfusion at the tissue level. Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) achieves full patency of the infarct-related vessel in >90% of the patients with AMI.

Effect of trimetazidine on myocardial salvage index in patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary PCI

open access: yesThe Egyptian Heart Journal, 2013
Introduction: Acute STEMI is the most serious presentation of CAD. Restoration of the coronary flow facilitates cardiomyocyte salvage and decreases cardiac morbidity and mortality. However, reperfusion may result in paradoxical cardiomyocyte dysfunction,

Outcomes according to timely or delayed primary percutaneous coronary intervention or fibrinolysis in a national registry of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction

open access: yesOpen Heart
Background Time to reperfusion is a predictor of long-term outcomes in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Timely primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the preferred strategy recommended by guidelines.

Clinical Impact of Thrombus Aspiration and Interaction With D-Dimer Levels in Patients With ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Objectives: To evaluate the effect of thrombus aspiration (TA) strategy on the outcomes and its interaction with D-dimer levels in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in

The Comparison of the Outcomes between Primary PCI, Fibrinolysis, and No Reperfusion in Patients ≥ 75 Years Old with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Results from the Chinese Acute Myocardial Infarction (CAMI) Registry

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Background Only a few randomized trials have analyzed the clinical outcomes of elderly ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients (≥ 75 years old). Therefore, the best reperfusion strategy has not been well established.

Association of different antiplatelet therapies with mortality after primary percutaneous coronary intervention [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Objectives Prasugrel and ticagrelor both reduce ischaemic endpoints in high-risk acute coronary syndromes, compared with clopidogrel. However, comparative outcomes of these two newer drugs in the context of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)

Outcomes from patients with multi-vessel disease following primary PCI

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: CABG and PCI are effective means for revascularization of patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease, but previous studies have not focused on treatment of patients that first undergo primary PCI.

Unstable angina pectoris prior to ST elevation myocardial infarction in patients treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention has no influence on prognosis

open access: yesBiomedical Papers, 2015
Background: Pre-infarction unstable angina pectoris (UAP) can be considered ischemic preconditioning. The aim of this study was to compare short and long term outcomes in patients with or without pre-infarction UAP and ST elevation myocardial infarction (
