Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter › Academic

Abstract

The achievement of early myocardial reperfusion is one of the main goals in ST elevation myocardial infarction for reducing infarct size and improving prognosis. In the last decade, several observations have shown that angiography and serial electrocardiograms (ECGs) are important for the assessment of reperfusion, in particular the evaluation of microvascular and tissue-level reperfusion, also considering their prognostic value.
