Comparison of Long-term Clinical and 1-Year Angiographic Outcomes after Primary Stenting (-12 hours) and Late Reperfusion (12 hours-) using Sirolimus-eluting Stents for ST-segment Elevated Myocardial Infarctions: A Propensity Score Matching Analysis

摘要

Objective We compared the long-term clinical and 1-year angiographic outcomes in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients who presented between 12 to 48 hours after symptom onset and underwent emergent procedures (late reperfusion) using sirolimus-eluting stents (SES; Cypher Bx Velocity) with those of primary stenting patients who presented within 12 hours.
