Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Interventions
Procedure: PCI + Ischemic conditioning
Procedure: Stent with ultrasound
Registration Number
NCT04775914
Lead Sponsor
Thomas Engstrom
Brief Summary

The purpose of is study is to investigate whether ischemic postconditioning (iPOST) and intravascular ultrasound-guided (IVUS) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) improve the clinical outcome of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction treated with primary PCI.
