Why the study?
Does flurbiprofen reduce reinfarction and reocclusion in patients successfully treated for acute myocardial infarction by thrombolysis or angioplasty?
Does flurbiprofen reduce reinfarction and reocclusion in patients successfully treated for acute myocardial infarction by thrombolysis or angioplasty?
Flurbiprofen significantly reduced the 6-month reinfarction rate and need for secondary revascularization after successful reperfusion for acute MI, though angiographic reocclusion rates were similar.
