Help with a cardiac cath report - lindawordlady

Posted: Oct 10, 2010

Has anyone ever heard the initials PNK or TNK for cath procedure. Patient having multiple procedures done and all I know is that it is a thrombolytic agent. I have looked up both in the abbreviation site and find nothing for TNK (which sounds more like it), but PNK??? Any thoughts or ideas, some med I would assume but I have stumped on this one.

Thanks

please give the sentence - .

He said thrombolytic agents PNK were given within 2 hours for chest pain - lka

another sentence is to keep the sheath in until at least 8:00 because of recent PNK and risk of bleeding.

TNK-Tissue Plasminogen Activator in Acute Myocardial Infarction - found this when I googled

so I am going with that. Still not sure what those initials mean but looks good to me... I am the original poster.

Thanks for looking and helping

In a cath report, is it support wire or sport wire? With Google, it seems like it should be support wire, but it sure sounds like he (ESL) says sport wire.

After that, we placed 2.75 x 30-mm Resolute drug-eluting stent We used a 3.75 EBU guiding catheter selectively engaged left main and the same sport wire was advanced ...
