title: [Clinical study of administration of abciximab--a monoclonal antibody to platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa in percutaneous intracoronary interventions].
abstract: During the last 10 years a new group of drugs was developed--platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa blockers that is nowadays largely and efficiently used as for the prevention of percutaneous coronary intervention complications as well as in the treatment of acute coronary syndromes. In the period February-June 2000--19 patients (18 males, 1 female, of average age 53.3 years) were administered Abciximab in the bolus dose of 10 mg immediately before the intervention and afterwards 10 mg by 12-hour infusion. All patients received aspirin and ticlopidine hydrochloride if the stent was introduced and heparin by the standard protocol. Elective intervention was done in 17 patients (non-Q infarction in 3 patients, unstable angina pectoris in 5 patients, postinfarction angina pectoris in 2 patients, acute myocardial infarction at least 1 month before the intervention in 6 patients and 1 patient with myocardiopathy) and in 2 patients the intervention was performed during the myocardial infarction. In 15 patients (79%) intracoronary stent was introduced and in 5 patients (21%) the intervention was performed on 2 arteries. Maximal immediate effect of the dilatation was achieved in 18 patients (94.7%). In the first 60 days of the follow-up 1 patient (5%) died of some other disease, and in no patients symptomatic myocardial ischemia was found. No adverse effects were observed.
