The restoration of blood flow to a part of the body deprived of adequate circulation, e.g., the heart muscle in myocardial infarction or the brain in stroke. This may be accomplished by thrombolytic agents, (e.g., streptokinase or tissue plasminogen activator), or mechanical interventions (e.g., stent placement). These interventions have improved outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndromes and in patients with stroke who come to medical attention in the first few hours of their illness. 2.
