Abstract
Two hundred fifty patients were enrolled in a multicenter, community-based study of the efficacy of intracoronary streptokinase thrombolysis in acute myocardial infarction; 134 were randomly assigned to streptokinase therapy and 116 were controls. All patients underwent left ventricular angiography and coronary arteriography before the random assignment.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
