Why the study?
Does intravenous nicorandil reduce periprocedural myocardial injury in patients with unstable angina undergoing PCI?
Does intravenous nicorandil reduce periprocedural myocardial injury in patients with unstable angina undergoing PCI?
Intravenous nicorandil administered before PCI in patients with unstable angina reduces periprocedural myocardial injury and preserves left ventricular function compared to isosorbide dinitrate.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Favors nicorandil over isosorbide dinitrate pre-PCI in unstable angina; confirms reduced periprocedural myocardial injury in this RCT.
