Previous medical interventions included a spectrum of procedures, including catheter-directed thrombectomy for popliteal artery aneurysms with thrombosis, vascular bypass grafting for cerebral-anterior communicating artery aneurysms and arch replacement and stent implantation for aortic dissecting aneurysms.

A male in his 40's who had been discharged 6 hours prior after stenting of an inferoposterior STEMI had sudden severe SOB at home 2 hours prior to calling 911. So it would be wise to look at the pre-discharge ECG, which was available: There are Q-waves and ST elevation on this pre-discharge (post-stent) ECG. He had no chest pain.

INFINITY-SWEDEHEART Trial: This randomized controlled trial, developed by Elixir Medical, compared the DynamX® Coronary Bioadaptor System with the Resolute Onyx drug-eluting stent. This debate underscored the growing role of CSP despite the current limited evidence supporting it. Memorial Lecture for Dr. Alain Cribier: Prof.

An echocardiogram showed severely reduced global systolic function with an EF of 20-25% and an LV apical thrombus. All three lesions had TIMI 2 flow prior to stenting. This is an RAO cranial projection of the left coronary vessels after thrombectomy and stenting. The LV aneurysm morphology persists.

hours after that first diagnostic ECG) : Mid-LAD culprit lesion, 99% stenosis, no pre-intervention TIMI flow available, but described as "severe subtotal lesion", which was stented with reported TIMI 3 flow resulting. Another lesion in the proximal LAD with 80% stenosis was stented as well. Culprit lesion was reduced to 0% and stented.

Compare to the anatomy after stenting: The lower of the 2 now easily seen branches is the circumflex, now with excellent flow. Next day echocardiogram showed inferolateral hypokinesia with an EF of %45-50. This is seen just millimeters beyond the tip of the catheter. The patient recovered well. His peak troponin was over 5000 ng/L.
