  • Title: Acute myocardial infarction: strategies for thrombolytic therapy.
    Author: Fath-Ordoubadi F, Beatt KJ.
    Journal: Br J Hosp Med; ; 53(11):575-80. PubMed ID: 7655756.
    Abstract:
    Thrombolytic therapy has revolutionised the treatment of acute myocardial infarction. This has led to a need for rapid and accurate diagnosis of this condition, provision of a triage protocol to achieve initiation of thrombolytic therapy as soon as the diagnosis has been made, and knowledge of the benefit:risk ratio of thrombolytic therapy in different subgroups of patients to allow the most effective use of these agents without compromising patient safety.
