Description
Summary:Currently, stent implantation is considered as the most efficient way to restore coronary blood flow upon myocardial infarction. Although counterintuitively, rapid cardiac reperfusion aggravates myocardial injury, increasing the necrosis area. A number of approaches to protect the ischemic myocardium have been suggested during the last decade, yet the consensus concept of myocardial protection is still lacking. Here we describe a case report where pharmacological cardioprotection after a primary percutaneous coronary intervention due to myocardial infarction successfully prevented reperfusion injury. We particularly focus on our therapeutic technique and protocol of cardioprotection.
