The coronary slow-flow phenomenon, defined as spontaneously delayed flow in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease, can be effectively treated with the channel-channel blocker nicardipine, ...
We investigated the impact of pre-percutaneous coronary intervention (pre-PCI) thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade (pre-TIMI) on 3-month (3-mo) and 12-mo of dual antiplatelet ...
Suboptimal final angiographic flow grade is the primary driver of restenosis after subintimal tracking and reentry (STAR) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) recanalization, according to a retrospective ...
Coronary collateral flow (CCF) is crucial for myocardial viability in patients with obstructive coronary artery disease, specifically ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, hypertension ...
To the Editor: Sabatine et al. (March 24 issue) 1 demonstrated in the Clopidogrel as Adjunctive Reperfusion Therapy (CLARITY)–Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) 28 trial that clopidogrel ...
Interv Cardiol. 2011;3(6):705-712. Altogether, the usefulness and merit of the contemporary thrombus grading classifications are widely accepted (Box 4). However, certain limitations should be ...
