The Effects of Intracoronary Nitroglycerine Administration on Lesion Parameters, Intervention Success and 1-Year MACE in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndromes

Year: 2022

Type: article

Abstract: Nitroglycerine (NTG) was used to relieve ischemic symptoms in patients with coronary artery disease. However, some studies demonstrated the positive effects of NTG on coronary circulation. In addition, NTG has been administrated to evaluate culprit lesion characteristics during coronary angiography. It was aimed to evaluate the effects of intracoronary NTG administration prior to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on lesion severity and outcome prediction in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
