This analysis shows the adverse influence of reocclusion on long-term clinical outcome in relation to reinfarction and need for revascularization. To further optimize prognosis after thrombolysis, prevention of reocclusion should become a main priority. Future research should focus on the criteria and timing of elective revascularization procedures in the prevention of coronary reocclusion.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
