Abstract:
Thrombolytic therapy has been proved to be effective in treating acute myocardial infarction (AMI),whereas the role of urgent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is disputed.Results of many clinical trials show that urgent PTCA,comparing with intravenous thrombolytic agents,has more advantages in increasing reperfusion rate,lowering mortality,the rate of reinfarct and bleeding.PTCA has gradually become a routine option in the treatment of AMI.This review focus mainly on PTCA intervention of AMI without thrombolysis,after thrombolytic success,and after thrombolytic failure.
