The benefit of complete revascularization in older patients (≥75 years of age) with myocardial infarction and multivessel disease remains unclear. A total of 1445 patients underwent randomization (720 ...
About The Study: In patients 75 years or older with myocardial infarction and multivessel disease, the benefit of physiology-guided complete revascularization over culprit-lesion–only treatment was ...
About The Study: Fractional flow reserve-guided complete revascularization during the index procedure resulted in a significant reduction in the composite of all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial ...
Myocardial infarction (MI) causes millions of deaths worldwide. Though there have been advances in the survival rates following ST-elevation MI (STEMI), survivors often develop heart failure due to ...
Background There is a lack of contemporary data describing patients with left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction post ...
Cutting edge imaging, rapid PCI protocols, and patient centered follow up improving outcomes for acute coronary syndromes.
In a recent study published in the journal Nature Cardiovascular Research, researchers developed and validated a novel biomarker-based prediction model to evaluate imminent first myocardial infarction ...
When discussing heart health, the words 'myocardial infarction' and 'heart attack' are used interchangeably as if they are one and the same. But are they? As explained by Dr Brajesh Kunwar, Sr ...
In a trial involving older patients with myocardial infarction and multivessel disease, physiology-guided complete revascularization led to a lower risk of cardiac events than culprit-only PCI.
