Does intravenous nicorandil before primary PCI improve preservation of myocardial viability in patients with acute myocardial infarction?
Intravenous nicorandil administered before primary PCI in patients with acute myocardial infarction significantly preserves myocardial viability and improves functional recovery.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May support pre-PCI nicorandil for viability preservation in AMI; hypothesis-generating, needs randomized confirmation.
Umemura et al. (2008) studied this question.
