Preservation of autonomic function following successful reperfusion with streptokinase within 12 hours of the onset of acute myocardial infarction

Abstract

Successful reperfusion following thrombolysis results in increased heart rate variability in the first 24 hours after administration. Preservation of autonomic function may contribute to improved prognosis when coronary artery patency is restored with intravenous thrombolysis.
