title: [The hospital course of thrombolyzed myocardial infarction: role of bypass and angioplasty].
abstract: The frequency of indications for revascularization (bypass and angioplasty) after intravenous thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (MI) varies from 3.3% (Gissi) to 60% (Tami). Initial progress in 30 patients hospitalized consecutively for MI treated by thrombolysis (group A) was compared with that of 30 MI patients treated conventionally (group B) over the same period. There were no between group differences in age, sex, infarction history, bypass history, topography of infarction or extent of coronary lesions. Group A was characterized by a larger ejection fraction (51.7 +/- 9.2% vs 44.9 +/- 10%; p less than 0.05), a higher frequency of ischemic recidivism (33% vs 10%; p less than 0.05), and more frequent indications for secondary revascularization (50% vs 20%; p less than 0.02).
