Abstract :

Acute myocardial infarction with ST elevation in ECG is a medical emergency with its life threatening and chronic complications. A retrospective, observational study was conducted in a total of 60 patients with acute STsegment elevated myocardial infarction and administered with fiinolytics Streptokinase & Tenecteplase. Based on the efficacy monitoring parameters, ST segment resolution of > 50% was observed in 76.67% of patients treated with streptokinase. It was higher 86.67% in Tenecteplase group. Tenecteplase definitely has better efficacy and safety than Streptokinase.
