Percutaneous coronary intervention versus optimal medical therapy for prevention of spontaneous myocardial infarction in subjects with stable ischemic heart disease.
BACKGROUND Contemporary studies have shown that spontaneous but not procedural myocardial infarction (MI) is related to subsequent mortality. Whether percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) reduces spontaneous (nonprocedural) MI is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) were searched for randomized clinical trials until Octob...
متن کاملRethinking Stable Ischemic Heart Disease
Thomas Kuhn’s landmark book, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, postulated that scientific progress proceeds linearly until the accumulation of a sufficient weight of evidence that the current paradigm is unable to accommodate forces the reexamination of underlying assumptions, and a new paradigm must be established (1). Viewed through this framework, stunning advances of past decades in ...
متن کاملThe benefit of ischemia-based revascularization for stable ischemic heart disease: the impact of FAME 2.
In the past decade, remarkable advances have been made in the treatment of coronary artery disease. The approval of the first drug-eluting stent (DES) in 2002 ushered in an era where millions of patients became better candidates for minimally invasive percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), which could be performed with low rates of subsequent revascularization procedures. Through this advanc...
متن کاملComparison between Revascularization and Optimal Medical Therapy in Patients with Stable Angina Pectoris
Background and Purpose: Regarding usefulness of revascularization versus optimal medical therapy in patients with stable angina pectoris, data are challenging. The aim of this 12-month follow-up study was to compare the survival benefit associated with revascularization versus optimal medical therapy on the patients with stable angina pectoris. Materials and Methods: A prospective clinical s...
متن کاملSustained Medical Therapy for Stable Heart Failure
Cardiac transplantation is predicted to improve survival for patients with severe symptoms of heart failure and ejection fraction of 20% or less, but the exercise capacity after cardiac transplantation is less than normal. Patients responding to vasodilators and diuretics have progressive improvement in exercise capacity despite low ejection fraction. We hypothesized that among patients current...
