Brief summary

We compared the infarct size in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) treated by nicorandil before and after the reperfusion with those standard therapy treated by PCI

Detailed description

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nicorandil in improving myocardial infarct size in patients with acute myocardial infarction through a multi-center, prospective, randomized, double-blind and parallel-controlled clinical study, providing evidence-based support for the optimization of PCI treatment strategies. The primary objective of the study was to compare whether the effect of nicorandil in combination with PCI was significantly better at reducing the myocardial infarct size than that of PCI alone in AMI patients.

Interventions

DRUGNicorandil

After randomization, receive primary PCI and standard therapy, 12mg Nicorandil iv. just before ballooning or stenting, then keep Nicorandil 6mg/h ivgtt. up to 24h

OTHERPlacebo

After randomization, receive primary PCI and standard therapy, just like the intervension group also iv. just before ballooning or stenting, then keep ivgtt. up to 24h

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Infarct size as measured by cardiac MRI7 days after primary PCIThe myocardial infarct size was derived by measuring the area of delay-enhanced image-enhanced MRI, which was judged and analyzed by two experienced MRI cardiac diagnosticians.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Corrected thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) frame count (cTFC)5 minutes after stent implantation during PCIthe starting point is the number of frames in which the contrast agent completely or nearly completely filled the beginning of the coronary artery and touched both sides of the coronary vessel wall, and the end point is the number of frames in which the contrast agent entered the distal branch vessel and developed a specific anatomical marker
Incidence of slow flow/no-reflow5 minutes after stent implantation during PCIWhen scanning at a rate of 15 frames per second, cTFC \> 27 frames per second was used as the criterion for the diagnosis of slow blood flow after primary PCI
ST-segment fall rate of electrocardiogram (ECG)2 hours after the procedureComplete ST-segment resolution at 2 h after PCI

Infarct size as measured by cardiac MRI6 months after PCIThe myocardial infarct size was derived from the program's automatic analysis of delayed enhancement images.
