Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: In order to be eligible to participate in this study, a subject must meet all of the following criteria: - Age > 18 - clinical presentation of an acute STEMI including chest pain and ST-segment elevations on the ECG of at least 2 mm in 2 standard limb leads or in 2 contiguous chest leads on the LifeNet ECG. - complete normalization of ST-segment elevations and resolution of symptoms on the coronary care unit, with or without initial treatment of sublingual nitrate, heparin, P2Y12 inhibitor and/or aspirin. - analysis in the study requires additionally that the patient can be followed for at least 12 months after the index admission.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: A potential subject who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded from participation in this study: - previous myocardial infarction - refractory ischemia, major arrhythmias, hemodynamic instability or heart failure requiring immediate catheterization - alternative causes of transient ST-segment elevation other than myocardial infarction. - refusal or inability to give informed consent. - GFR<30 ml/min. - other contraindications for MRI
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary end point of the study is total infarct size as percentage of the left ventricle at baseline CMR scan, performed 4 days after the start of symptoms | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| o The change of gadolinium-enhanced infarct size at 4 months relative to baseline. o The difference in the area at risk and myocardial salvage between the two treatment groups (immediate versus delayed intervention) o The difference in microvascular injury between the two treatment groups (immediate versus delayed intervention). o The change of global and regional myocardial function based on a CMR-segmental analysis (using the 17-segments AHA model) at 4 months relative to baseline at day 3, as measured by CMR. o The difference in infarct size measured by troponine and CK MB as area under the curve. o The occurrence of recurrent ischemia requiring urgent revascularisation during the index hospitalisation. o Occurrence of recurrent symptomatic or asymptomatic ST-segment elevation on continuous 12-lead ECG Holter monitor recording 24 hours after admission and 24 hours after PCI. o The occurrence within 4 and 12 months of a Major Adverse Cardiac Event (MACE) defined as cardiac death, myocardial infarction, coronary bypass grafting, or a repeat percutaneous intervention of the culprit lesion. o The presence of clinically overt heart failure at 4 and 12 months. o The occurrence of bleeding during hospitalisation defined by the TIMI bleeding criteria | — |
