Left ventricular global longitudinal strain following revascularization in acute ST elevation myocardial infarction – A comparison of primary angioplasty and Streptokinase-based pharmacoinvasive strategy

Left ventricular global longitudinal strain following revascularization in acute ST elevation myocardial infarction – A comparison of primary angioplasty and Streptokinase-based pharmacoinvasive strategy

Objective: Tenecteplase-based pharmacoinvasive percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been shown to yield outcomes comparable to primary PCI in the setting of acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). This study was designed to compare the efficacy of pharmacoinvasive PCI following suc...
