Interventions in the Acute Phase of Myocardial Infarction edited by J. Morganroth, E. Neil Moore.

In the 1980's a primary focus for intense cardiovascular research is in the treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction. Although the prevalence of this syndrome has been decreasing in the United States, still over 1.5 million patients develop myocardial infarction per year. There is...
