AFTER THROMBOLYSIS FOR ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION CULPRIT VESSEL REVASCULARIZATION IN PATIENTS WITH VIABILITY IN THE INFARCT AREA LEADS TO A SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT IN EJECTION FRACTION WHEN COMPARED TO A MEDICAL, NON-INVASIVE MANAGEMENT

Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated the number of viable segments and revascularization during FU as independent predictors for EF improvement, especially in patients with lower EF at baseline. Conclusion Viability early after acute myocardial infarction is associated with improvemen...

Zusammenfassung:Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated the number of viable segments and revascularization during FU as independent predictors for EF improvement, especially in patients with lower EF at baseline. Conclusion Viability early after acute myocardial infarction is associated with improvement in LV function after revascularization.
