Comparison of predictive value of risk scores regarding the short-term and long-term prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention [PDF]
Introduction: Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) presents standard treatment in patients with acute myocardial infarction. In order to predict the prognosis of patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), several risk ...

Infarct size and left ventricular remodelling after preventive percutaneous coronary intervention [PDF]
Objective: We hypothesised that, compared with culprit-only primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), additional preventive PCI in selected patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction with multivessel disease would not be associated with ...

There have been numerous advancements in the management of ST-elevation myocardial infarcts (STEMI) for the last few decades. Studies have shown an improvement of survival of STEMI due to increased use of perfusion therapy and recommended medications. The success of timely reperfusion therapy for STEMI patients would require close collaboration between

Intravenous sodium nitrite in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction: a randomized controlled trial (NIAMI). [PDF]
AIM: Despite prompt revascularization of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), substantial myocardial injury may occur, in part a consequence of ischaemia reperfusion injury (IRI). There has been considerable interest in therapies that may reduce IRI.
