Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| microvascular function as determided by IMR in the infarct-related vessel at 30 days follow-up | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1) microvascular function as determided the delta IMR in the infarct-related vessel (baseline vs. 1-month f-up). 2) microvascular function as determided the (delta) IMR in the non-infarct-related vessel 3) microvascular function as determided by the (delta) RHI as determined by EndoPat 4) microvascular function as determided by the (delta) level of biochemical markers | — |
