TIME TO DISCOVERY OF LEFT VENTRICULAR THROMBUS AFTER ANTERIOR WALL ST ELEVATION MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION WITH REDUCED EJECTION FRACTION TREATED WITH PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION AND DUAL ANTIPLATELET THERAPY

Background: Previous studies have reported on the incidence of left ventricular thrombus (LVT) in patients with STEMI however there has been no analysis of the incidence and time to discovery in patients after an anterior wall ST elevation myocardial infarction (awSTEMI) complicated with reduced eje...

Description
Summary:Background: Previous studies have reported on the incidence of left ventricular thrombus (LVT) in patients with STEMI however there has been no analysis of the incidence and time to discovery in patients after an anterior wall ST elevation myocardial infarction (awSTEMI) complicated with reduced ejection fraction (EF) in the primary PCI era.
