Effect of intracoronary tirofiban on platelet alpha-granule membrane protein and myocardial perfusion level during emergency percutaneous coronary intervention

H. P. Xu, Liu, C. M., and Zhang, W. W., Effect of intracoronary tirofiban on platelet alpha-granule membrane protein and myocardial perfusion level during emergency percutaneous coronary intervention, vol. 13, pp. 9599-9605, 2014.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of intracoronary application of tirofiban on platelet alpha-granule membrane protein (GMP-140) and myocardial perfusion levels during emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). A total of 70 patients who accepted emergency PCI treatment were randomly divided into tirofiban and control groups. We determined GMP-140 and troponin I (cTnI) levels before and 12 h after surgery, as well as N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide levels 1 and 7 days after surgery in the two groups.
