Systematic review of fibrinolytic-facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention: Potential benefits and future challenges

摘要

BACKGROUND:Facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is defined as the administration of fibrinolytic therapy and/or glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa inhibitors to minimize myocardial ischemia time while waiting for PCI. A pooled meta-analysis suggested that facilitated PCI was associated with higher rates of mortality and morbidity compared with nonfacilitated PCI.
