  • Title: Management of unstable angina soon after myocardial infarction.
    Author: Seth A, Perry RA, Shiu MF.
    Journal: Br J Hosp Med; 1988 May; 39(5):400-2, 404-6, 408. PubMed ID: 2898267.
    Abstract:
    The recurrence of angina soon after myocardial infarction is not uncommon and represents areas of viable myocardium at risk from infarct extension and thus a worse prognosis. A better understanding of the pathogenesis of acute ischaemic syndromes and developments in interventional cardiology in the past decade have helped us rationalize our approach to this high-risk subset and achieve maximal myocardial salvage with its short- and long-term benefits.
