Reperfusion and Revascularization in Acute Myocardial Infarction

  • 38 Accesses

Abstract

With intravenous administration of streptokinase, reperfusion in 50% – 55% of patients with acute myocardial infarction can be expected [1 – 3], and with intracoronary administration of streptokinase in 70% – 75%. This rate can even be increased up to 90% by additional mechanical recanalization [5]. A reperfusion rate of 65% – 70% has been reported for intravenous application of tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) [6 – 8]; single-chain prourokinase also seems to be a promising thrombolytic agent [9, 10].
