Comparison of coronary stenting with or without predilation for infarct related lesions in patients with acute myocardial infarction / 中国介入心脏病学杂志

ABSTRACT

1?216 kPa(12 atm, 1 atm=101.325 kPa)] or low- (≤1?216 kPa) pressure inflation. Results In group A, all patients were successfully treated with PCI. In group B, 40 cases (95%) were successfully treated with DS, and DS in the remaining 2 patients failed due to an angle in IRL, which were successfully managed with pre-dilation. There were no procedure-related death, re-infarction, or emergency bypass surgery in both groups. The incidence of no-reflow after stenting was significantly higher in patients with high-pressure inflation than in those with low-pressure inflation (32% vs 7%, P
