The angiograms of 89 patients were reviewed from the LATE Ancillary Study (randomized trial of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator vs placebo in patients with symptom onset after 6 hours of myocardial infarction) to determine patency of the infarct-related artery (IRA). In the occluded IRA group (n = 35), the incidence of signal-averaged electrocardiographic abnormality (fQRS > 120 ms) was significantly higher (p = 0.04), the filtered QRS duration was significantly longer (p = 0.007), and the V40 was significantly shorter (p = 0.02), compared with the patent IRA group (n = 54).

D010959 Tissue Plasminogen Activator A proteolytic enzyme in the serine protease family found in many tissues which converts PLASMINOGEN to FIBRINOLYSIN. It has fibrin-binding activity and is immunologically different from UROKINASE-TYPE PLASMINOGEN ACTIVATOR. The primary sequence, composed of 527 amino acids, is identical in both the naturally occurring and synthetic proteases.
