Coronary Artery Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
The primary objective is to evaluate if use of the AngioGuard™ XP improves myocardial reperfusion after PTCA as assessed by ST segment resolution at the end of PTCA.
Detailed description
This is a prospective, randomized, multicenter trial. Patients will be randomized either to be treated by PTCA only or in combination with the An-gioGuard™ XP device. The patients will be followed for six-months post-procedure.
Interventions
PTCA with the Angioguard distal protection device.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Acute myocardial infarction \< 12 hours with ST segment elevation \> 2 mm in at least 2 contiguous leads; * Clinical indication of primary PTCA; * De novo or restenotic lesions in native coronary vessel, single vessel treatment only; * Target lesion stenosis is \> 80% (by visual estimation).
Exclusion criteria
* Patient has unprotected left main coronary disease with \> 50% stenosis in case left coronary artery is treated; * Patient has an ostial target lesion; * Killip class \> 3.
