Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI)
Conditions
Keywords
IABC, AMI
Brief summary
Subjects with anterior acute STEMI who receive an IABC before primary PCI will have decreased MI size.
Detailed description
Post clearance device study in which subjects with acute MI will be randomized 1:1 to either receive IAB or to receive standard of care without IAB before mechanical reperfusion. Subjects will be followed throughout their hospital stay and at 30 days.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To determine whether IABC before mechanical reperfusion decreases myocardial infarct (MI) size. | 3-5 days |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To determine the effect of IABC before mechanical reperfusion on post PCI cardiovascular function and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) (ie, death, reinfarction, and CHF) at 30 days and 6 months. | 30 days and 6 months post randomization |
