DOI: 10.1002/ccd.31665
Abstract: Myocardial infarction (MI) is a major global cause of morbidity and mortality. Reperfusion therapy in acute MI reduces mortality, but microvascular obstruction (MVO) may persist. Tirofiban improves myocardial perfusion by inhibiting platelet aggregation. read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2018.02.010
Abstract: Plaque erosion, fissuring or rupture occurs spontaneously or during coronary interventions. At some residual blood flow, the atherothrombotic debris is washed into the coronary microcirculation, causing physical obstruction, vasoconstriction, inflammation and ultimately microinfarction. Coronary microembolization… read more here.
