Abstract
In the GUSTO Angiographic Trial 1,175 patients underwent angiography at a mean of 97±12 min following thrombolysis with either t-PA, Streptokinase, or a combination of both agents. For all treatment groups combined, 313 (27%) patients had TIMI 2 flow (T2). Of the patients with early TIMI 2 flow 151 (48%) continued to have TIMI 2 flow af follow-up (f/u) angiography a mean of 5.9±1.9 days later. while in 162 (52%) the flow had improved to TIMI 3. The plot on the left shows the minimum luminal diameter (MLD) for patients with TIMI 2 flow at 90 minutes and 5–7 day f/u vs those with TIMI
