Descriptor English: Myocardial Reperfusion
Descriptor Spanish: Reperfusión Miocárdica
Descriptor reperfusión miocárdica
Entry term(s) reperfusión coronaria
Scope note: De manera general, es la restauración del suministro sanguíneo al tejido cardíaco que está isquémico como consecuencia de una disminución en el suministro normal de sangre. La disminución puede tener cualquier origen, incluyendo la obstrucción ateroesclerótica, el estrechamiento de una arteria o el pinzamiento quirúrgico. Puede inducirse la reperfusión para tratar la isquemia. Los métodos incluyen la disolución clínica de un trombo oclusivo, administración de fármacos vasodilatadores, angioplastia, cateterismo y cirugía de implante de derivación arterial. Sin embargo, se piensa que la reperfusión, por sí misma, puede también lesionar el tejido isquémico, dando lugar a la LESIÓN POR REPERFUSIÓN MIOCÁRDICA.

Scope note: Generally, restoration of blood supply to heart tissue which is ischemic due to decrease in normal blood supply. The decrease may result from any source including atherosclerotic obstruction, narrowing of the artery, or surgical clamping. Reperfusion can be induced to treat ischemia. Methods include chemical dissolution of an occluding thrombus, administration of vasodilator drugs, angioplasty, catheterization, and artery bypass graft surgery. However, it is thought that reperfusion can itself further damage the ischemic tissue, causing MYOCARDIAL REPERFUSION INJURY.
