Several studies have shown that stent implantations in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) result in better short-and long-term outcomes than primary balloon angioplasty. These results, however, have not been ascertained in randomized trials. We randomized 136 patients out of 208 patients with AMI wit
Thrombolytic therapy reduces mortality and improves ventricular function in acute myocardial infarction. We review the short-and long-term effects of reperfusion after acute myocardial infarction on left ventricular function and heart failure. The beneficial effects of reperfusion may be achieved by
