## Abstract We hypothesized that using calcium channel blockers (CCBs) that dilate microvasculature during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) would result in lower postprocedural creatine phosphokinase (CPK). PCI can be complicated by elevated CPK that has been associated with impaired microv
Mild to moderate periprocedural elevation in CK with concurrent CK MB elevation result in increased subsequent myocardial infarction and mortality. However the potential risks that percutaneous revascularization interventions pose must be evaluated in light the risks of alternative procedures and th
