It is now well known that even if a coronary artery is opened well after a myocardial infarction, with good flow in the epicardial coronary arteries, there could be impaired myocardial perfusion. Transit time is measured by saline bolus injection using a thermodilution technique. Banning, William F.

This highlights the need for serial ECGs in acute coronary syndrome as initial ECGs may be near normal even in those with severe disease. Classical electrocardiographic pattern in left main coronary artery disease is ST elevation in aVR with extensive ST depression in other leads, most prominent in I, II and V4-V6.

Coronary artery disease remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Recent research has illuminated the role of total coronary atherosclerotic plaque activity across the entire coronary arterial tree in predicting patient-level clinical outcomes. 4.39; P = 0.002) myocardial infarctions.

The optimal surveillance strategy after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for high-risk patients with multivessel or left main coronary artery disease (CAD) remains uncertain. The primary outcome was a composite of death from any cause, myocardial infarction, or hospitalization for unstable angina at 2 years.

Left main coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes pose significant challenges in cardiovascular care, often leading to adverse outcomes. However, the comparative long-term efficacy of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) versus coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with these conditions remains unclear.

FAME study showed that at one year follow up, rate of major adverse coronary events was reduced by approximately 30% by routinely measuring FFR. They had lower rates of mortality or myocardial infarction. PCI or coronary artery bypass surgery rates were also lower, though not statistically significant.
