متن کاملPrimary Stenting Versus Balloon Angioplasty in Occluded Coronary Arteries
Background—Balloon angioplasty (PTCA) of occluded coronary arteries is limited by high rates of restenosis and reocclusion. Although stenting improves results in anatomically simple occlusions, its effect on patency and clinical outcome in a broadly selected population with occluded coronary arteries is unknown. Methods and Results—Eighteen centers randomized 410 patients with nonacute native c...
متن کاملRandomised trial of elective stenting after successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty of occluded coronary arteries.
BACKGROUND The value of angioplasty in occluded coronary arteries is limited by a restenosis/reocclusion rate of 50-70%. In patients with subtotal occlusion, stent implantation has been shown to reduce clinical and angiographic restenosis. Retrospective observational studies have suggested that stenting could reduce restenosis in total occlusions. The value of sustained coronary patency on glob...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Patency Rate of the Coronary Arteries after Treatment with Heberkinase
Background: Intravenous thrombolytic therapy is still the most common treatment for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in our country. In recent years, some cases of suboptimal results of the treatment with a special trademark (Heberkinase) have been reported. So, we decided to evaluate the patency rate of arteries involved in infarction after treatment with Heberkinase. Materials and Methods:...
