Use of Prourokinase and Variants Thereof in Facilitated Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction

摘要

In the field of biological medicines, a use of prourokinase (proUK) and variants thereof in facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction is provided. The use includes: within 6 hrs after a patient is afflicted with accurate myocardial infarction (AMI), firstly, performing thrombolytic therapy with proUK or variants thereof, and then, performing a PCI operation, to dredge the infarction related artery (IRA) as soon as possible, and re-establish an effective forward blood flow, such that an ischemic myocardium is reperfused. According to the present invention, the facilitated PCI for treatment of AMI with the proUK or variants thereof has an effect superior to that of direct PCI.
