Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We conducted a prospective study to investigate the relation between ST reelevation during primary angioplasty and improvement in left ventricular function. The duration, not the occurrence, of ST reelevation at reperfusion was associated with improvement in left ventricular function in patients with anterior wall acute myocardial infarction successfully recanalized by primary angioplasty.
