Adjunctive intracoronary dipyridamole in the interventional treatment of small coronary arteries: a prospectively randomized trial
  Heidland UE || Strauer BE
  Am Heart J 2000;139:1039-45
  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/htbin-post/Entrez/query?db=m&form=6&dopt=r&uid=0010827385
In this randomized study on 491 PTCA of small coronary arteries with a diameter <2.75 mm, additional intracoronary application of dipyridamole was compared with conventional pretreatment consisting of heparin and aspirin. Intracoronary dipyridamole was associated with a significant reduction of abrupt vessel closure (2.8% vs 8.6%; P =.005) and a nonsignificant reduction of myocardial infarction (1.6% vs 4.5%; P =.07).

Bivalirudin (Angiomax)
http://www.theheart.org/index.cfm?doc_id=20706 
The recent FDA approval of the thrombin-specific anticoagulant bivalirudin (Angiomax) may offer the alternative to heparin that interventionalists have been waiting for. Heartbeat speaks with Dr A Michael Lincoff, interventional cardiologist and researcher at the Cleveland Clinic, about the place of this agent in clinical practice.
