Abstract
We present a case of thrombolytic therapy for acute myocardial infarction with high-dose intravenous streptokinase infusion in the emergency department. Resolution of ST segment elevation and relief of chest pain occurred within one hour of the infusion, and coronary angiographic study six days later showed a significant proximal obstruction (80%) of the right coronary artery. The patient underwent coronary artery bypass surgery eight weeks after his initial hospital presentation.
