Does high-dose intracoronary adenosine improve regional systolic left ventricular function in patients with acute myocardial infarction?

Does high-dose intracoronary adenosine improve regional systolic left ventricular function in patients with acute myocardial infarction?

Background: Reperfusion injury limits the beneficial effects of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the setting of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Adenosine limits reperfusion injury in animal models. Objective: Is to study the effects of high-dose intracoronary adenosine administ...
