مستخلص: The article reports that treatment for patients after heart attacks is being reconsidered. Most physicians will insert a stent into a clogged artery days after a heart attack, even though damage has already occured. New studies show that treatment with beta-blockers is just as effective and less invasive than angioplasty.
