Myocardial reperfusion is a pivotal component of cardiovascular care, encompassing the reinstatement of blood flow to the heart muscle following a period of ischemia. Ischemia arises when the blood supply to the heart is temporarily diminished or obstructed, often in the context of a myocardial infarction (heart attack). The primary goal of reperfusion is to alleviate ischemic conditions and mitigate damage to the cardiac tissue. Nonetheless, the restoration of blood flow during reperfusion is a double-edged sword. The abrupt reintroduction of oxygen to the ischemic tissue can trigger oxidative stress and inflammation, contributing to additional injury. Striking a balance between the benefits of reperfusion and the potential harm it may cause is a central challenge in managing cardiovascular diseases.
