Reduction in Infarct Size by Remote Per-postconditioning in Patients With ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Myocardial Infarction
Coronary Artery Disease
Registration Number
NCT02021760
Lead Sponsor
John Pernow
Brief Summary

* Trial objective: To test the hypothesis that remote per-postconditioning in connection with primary PCI will reduce myocardial infarct size patients with STEMI.

* Trial Design: Placebo controlled randomized study with parallel groups

* Primary Endpoint: Myocardial infarct size expressed as a percentage of the myocardium at risk determined by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) day 4-7

* Efficacy Parameters: Myocardial infarct size expressed as a percentage to the myocardium at risk determined by CMR at 6 months.

* Global left ventricular function determined by left ventricular ejection fraction determined by CMR.

* Microvascular obstruction determined by CMR day 4-7. Quantified ECV (extracellular volume) in left ventricular as myocardium at risk day 4-7 and remodelling parameters day 180.

* Safety Parameters: Major adverse cardiovascular events.
