Assessment of Myocardial Reperfusion by Intravenous Myocardial Contrast Echocardiography and Coronary Flow Reserve After Primary Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angiography in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction
Wolfgang Lepper,Rainer Hoffmann,Otto Kamp,Andreas Franke,Carel C. de Cock,Harald P. Kühl,Gertjan Tj. Sieswerda,Jürgen vom Dahl,Uwe Janssens,Paolo Voci,Cees A. Visser,Peter Hanrath +11 more
TL;DR: This study investigated whether the extent of perfusion defect determined by intravenous myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) in patients with acuteMyocardial infarction treated by primary percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) relates to coronary flow reserve (CRF) for assessment of myocardIAL reperfusion and is predictive for left ventricular recovery.

Massive pulmonary embolism: percutaneous emergency treatment by pigtail rotation catheter
TL;DR: Fragmentation by pigtail rotation catheter provided for a rapid and safe improvement of the hemodynamic situation and an average recanalization of about one-third of the pulmonary embolic occlusion.

TL;DR: In acute PE, BNP elevation is highly predictive of RV dysfunction, but not of in-hospital complications and mortality, whereas patients without RV dysfunction show reference range BNP levels in the absence of left ventricular dysfunction.
