A Clinical Study on the Minor Myocardial Injury Associated with Percutaneous Coronary Intervention / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

0 05). In PCI group,the balloon inflation time, the highest inflation pressure and the number of placed stents in the patients with the increased level of cTnI had not significant difference compared with those in the patients without the increased level of cTnI. There were 2 patients with side branch occlusion, whose cTnI level obviously elevated. Conclusion PCI could lead to minor myocardial injury in some patients, the reason of which might be side branch occlusion. The number of placed stents and balloon inflation time were not associated with the minor myocardial injury.
