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