Early change in invasive measures of microvascular function can predict myocardial recovery following PCI for ST-elevation myocardial infarction.

Abstract:

AIMS: Predicting the likely success of primary PCI to salvage potential infarcted myocardium is desirable. We compared early invasive parameters of coronary microcirculation function with the levels of circulating endothelin (ET-1) and 6-month ejection fraction after STEMI. METHODS AND RESULTS: Forty-four STEMI patients underwent assessment of coronary flow reserve (CFR) and index of myocardial resistance (IMR) on completion of PPCI and one day later. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) at 24 h ...
