Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary end point(s): Size of AMI (percentage myocardium infarct / percentage of the left ventricle) estimated by cardioresonance and quantified by late enhancement of gadolinium at 30 +/- 10 days of acute episode in both treatment, active and placebo groups.;Main Objective: To assess whether blunt myocardium, following acute myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation, can be fully or partially recovered after infusion of levosimendan in the first 24 hours after primary angioplasty.;Secondary Objective: 1. Left ventricular function. 2. Adverse ventricular remodeling. 3. Heart failure. 4. Arrhythmias. 5. Hypotension. 6. Reinfarct 7. Ischemic events.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At 30 +/- 10 days of acute episode in both treatment, active and placebo groups. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Echocardiographic and cardioresonance parameters related to cardiac function;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At 30 days and 6 months | — |
