Drug-eluting Balloon in Acute Myocardial Infarction

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Atherosclerosis
Thrombosis
Acute Myocardial Infarction
Coronary Artery Disease
Interventions
Device: Drug eluting stent
Device: Bare metal stent
Device: Drug eluting balloon
Registration Number
NCT00856765
Lead Sponsor
UMC Utrecht
Brief Summary

The investigators hypothesize that patients with Acute ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction may benefit from primary angioplasty with use of a drug eluting balloon/bare metal stent combination without impairing the process of normal vascular healing and endothelial function.

The goals of this study are:

1. To compare 6-month angiographic outcome after primary angioplasty using drug eluting balloon/bare metal stent combination versus drug eluting stent versus bare metal stent.

2. To compare stent apposition and stent endothelialization after primary angioplasty using drug eluting balloon/bare metal stent versus drug eluting stent versus bare metal stent.

3. To compare coronary endothelial function after primary angioplasty using drug eluting balloon/bare metal stent versus drug eluting stent versus bare metal stent.
