Relation of Hyperglycemia to ST-Segment Resolution After Reperfusion for Acute Myocardial Infarction (from Observatoire des Infarctus de Côte-d’Or Survey [RICO])

Hyperglycemia has been shown to be a powerful predictor of worse outcome after ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), which could be related to impaired myocardial reperfusion. This study investigated the association between hyperglycemia and ST-segment resolution (STR) after thrombolys...

Description
Summary:Hyperglycemia has been shown to be a powerful predictor of worse outcome after ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), which could be related to impaired myocardial reperfusion. This study investigated the association between hyperglycemia and ST-segment resolution (STR) after thrombolysis. From the French regional Observatoire des Infarctus de Côte-d’Or survey, admission glucose in 371 patients with STEMIs who were treated by lysis
