AuthorStephane Noble, MD, University Hospital of Geneva, Switzerland

 

CONCLUSION

  • Very few studies focusing on BF in STEMI
  • Prevalence between 11% and 23%
  • Predominantly LAD/diag.
  • Procedural success rate not significantly different between BF and non BF groups
  • Provisional T-stenting was the most common technique used
  • Time to rerperfusion similar, but longer procedural time
  • DES to treat BF in STEMI seem to be safe
