Background Hyperglycemia, characterized by elevated blood glucose levels, is frequently observed in patients with acute coronary syndrome, including ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). There are conflicting sources regarding the relationship between hyperglycemia and outcomes in STEMI patients. 3.45) and 4.47 (95% CI: 2.54–7.87),

A random-effects model was used for outcomes with high heterogeneity.Results:We included 4 RCTs with 3173 patients comparing FFR-guided CR with culprit-only PCI in patients with STEMI and multivessel coronary artery diseases. vs 13.6%), any stent thrombosis (RR=1.42; 95% CI [0.35, 5.72]; p=0.62; 2.2%

Old ‘NSTEMI’ A history of coronary artery disease and a stent to the same territory further increases pre-test likelihood of acute coronary occlusion, including in-stent thrombosis. The patient had a history of ‘NSTEMI’ a decade prior, with an RCA stent. So this NSTEMI was likely a STEMI(-)OMI with delayed reperfusion.

The near-immediate or instant feedback learning process by which the heart responds to any new invasive procedural variation facilitates each new change; be it drug-eluting stent, drug-coated balloon, or both in different combinations and permutations.

The primary efficacy objective was to demonstrate superiority of PPA to reduce the primary efficacy end point of all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, stent thrombosis (definite), or urgent revascularization (any vessel) within 30 days.

I would expect that a stent would be placed. The angiogram showed an open artery with 95% stenosis and thrombosis and it was stented. Quiz : What percent of full blown STEMI have an open artery with normal flow at angiogram? In the meantime, a lot of myocardium is lost. They were interpreted as completely NORMAL!!

A second 12 Lead ECG was recorded: This is a testament to the dynamic nature of coronary thrombosis and thrombolysis. One stent was deployed with restorative TIMI-0 flow. it has been subsequently deemed a STEMI-equivalent. it has been subsequently deemed a STEMI-equivalent. But the lesion is still active!
