Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for All?

JAMA - Journal of the American Medical Association, 2002
the number of trials and number of patients randomized has more than doubled to 21 trials and 6800 patients, all of which show clear benefit of PCI over thrombolysis. A metaanalysis of the randomized trials carried out through 1997 showed a clear reduction in mortality, recurrent MI, stroke, and intracranial hemorrhage. Mortality was reduced a relative

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.

Thrombus Aspiration during Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

New England Journal of Medicine, 2008
Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is effective in opening the infarct-related artery in patients with myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation. However, the embolization of atherothrombotic debris induces microvascular obstruction and diminishes myocardial reperfusion.We performed a randomized trial assessing whether manual ...

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 ...

Contrast-induced nephropathy in primary percutaneous coronary intervention

Heart, 2011
It is clear that the development of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is both common and prognostically important in patients undergoing interventional cardiovascular procedures. CIN is now established as the third most common cause of hospital-acquired acute kidney injury (after surgery and hypotension).1 The expansion in the use of iodinated ...

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.
