Advances in emerging therapies

Abstract

At least 2 large clinical trials published over the last 12 months will modify practice, in acute treatment and secondary prevention respectively. We have exciting support for thrombolysis and a stimulus to expand our efforts to restore perfusion in a wider range of patients. Elsewhere we see encouragement that improvements in therapy are emerging, and hope to see these flourish over the coming year. © 2009 American Heart Association, Inc.
