Background: Patients presenting with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) frequently face multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD). The optimal interventional approach remains debated. Objective: To systematically review and analyze the effectiveness and safety of drug-coated ba...
Background: Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) of coronary arteries presents a significant challenge in the management of coronary artery disease (CAD), influencing treatment outcomes and patient prognosis. Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) and Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) are two predominant revascularization strategies employed, each...
A minimal surgical procedure called ‘PCI’ (percutaneous coronary intervention) is performed to treat those who have diseases of the coronary arteries. A period of more than three months of entire blockage of a coronary artery results in a ‘CTO’ (chronic total occlusions). The primary goal of the research is to determine the performance of patients...
Background: Heart failure (HF) is a leading cause of hospital readmissions, presenting significant challenges in healthcare. Comorbid conditions like diabetes and hypertension are prevalent among HF patients and may complicate disease management. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for developing effective intervention strategies. Objective: Th...
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has become more complex with the advancement of medical devices. One such device is the rotational atherectomy (RA), which uses a rotating diamond-coated burr to modify calcified lesions. This makes it easier to deliver balloons and stents to specific lesions. However, there is a lack of literature regarding...
Background: Non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) presents a significant clinical challenge, particularly in the context of multi-vessel disease (MVD), which complicates patient management and impacts prognosis. The variability in short-term outcomes following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for NSTEMI patients with MVD necessita...
Background: The management of triple-vessel disease (TVD) with proximal left anterior descending (PLAD) artery involvement remains a critical challenge in cardiology. Current guidelines advocate for both stent placement and graft surgery, yet evidence supporting the optimal approach is conflicting. Objective This study aims to compare the immediate...
Objectives: Right ventricular infraction has prognostic significance in the setting of acute “inferior wall myocardial infarction (IWMI)”, this research is intended to determine the frequency of “right ventricular infarction (RVI)” in patients with acute IWMI. Methodology: This descriptive cross-sectional study took place at a tertiary care hospita...
Objectives: The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of modifiable risk factors in young patients diagnosed with acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the cardiology department of Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar. A total of 236 patients presented with acute STEMI, b...
Background: Right bundle branch block has prognostic significance in the setting of acute myocardial infarction; this research is intended to determine the incidence of new-onset right bundle branch block in acute myocardial infarction and its angiographic findings. Methodology: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in a tertiary car...
Objective: To determine the frequency of pericardial effusion after acute anterior wall myocardial infarction. Design of the Study: Cross sectional study. Study Settings: The study was conducted at Cardiology Department, Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar from 13/5/2019 to 13/11/2019. Material and Methods: Total of 122 patients were included. Baseline...
