Primary percutaneous coronary intervention: models of intervention in Spain

EuroIntervention, 2012
Early reperfusion of the occluded artery is the mainstay of the treatment of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), and the best way to coordinate the resources to deliver optimal care as soon as possible is through STEMI networks.

Time to Treatment in Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

New England Journal of Medicine, 2007
Early administration of reperfusion therapy improves survival among patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction. For primary percutaneous intervention, a goal of 90 minutes or less for door-to-balloon time is incorporated into many measures of quality performance, but delay remains common, with little improvement in this measure over recent years.

Reduction of Delays in Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Canadian Journal of Cardiology, 2011
Acute myocardial infarction is a major health issue. Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for ST-elevation myocardial infarction was proved to be superior to fibrinolytic therapy in many randomized trials when done in a timely manner. However, PPCI is associated with delays.

Effectiveness of Primary Percutaneous Coronary Interventions for Stent Thrombosis

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2009
There are very few (and conflicting) data about the effectiveness of primary percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) for stent thrombosis (ST) treatment. We sought to evaluate the prevalence, efficacy, and outcomes of primary PCI in patients with ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) due to ST in 2,464 consecutive patients treated by ...

Ischemic postconditioning during primary percutaneous coronary intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, 2017
BackgroundAlthough some studies have shown potential benefit for ischemic postconditioning (IPoC) during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in improving surrogate markers of reperfusion and infarction size, the benefit of this approach on clinical outcomes remains unknown.Methods and ResultsElectronic databases were searched for ...

Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Refractory Cardiac Arrest

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 2014
The identification and treatment of reversible causes is paramount to the success of resuscitation in cardiac arrest, particularly when standard therapy has failed. Acute coronary occlusion is one such cause, and the introduction of primary percutaneous coronary intervention services may provide an opportunity for emergency revascularization in this ...

Effect of primary percutaneous coronary intervention on myocardial repolarization

Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine, 2011
We aimed to investigate the effect of coronary perfusion on QT interval dispersion in patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI).Seventy-seven consecutive patients who had undergone primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for a first ST segment elevation MI during the first 12 h of symptom onset were included in the study.
