Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Among re-perfusion strategies for the management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction , primary per-cutaneous coronary intervention is the preferred one within 120 minutes from the first medical contact.However , restoration of the coronary blood flow can paradoxically reduce the beneficial effects of myocardial re-perfusion , a phenomenon known as myocardial re-perfusion injury.Ischemic post-conditioning has been described as a measure for myocardial salvage , performed by making cycles of briefly interrupted perfusion during the early moments of coronary re-flow.Post-conditioning may be performed immediately after the early re-flow by creating cycles of interrupted inflation & deflation of the angioplasty balloon in patients undergoing primary per-cutaneous coronary intervention.In this study investigators aim to compare the left ventricular remodeling and global systolic function immediately & 6 months after re-perfusion between two groups of 100 patients presenting with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction, using ischemic post-conditioning in one group of patients undergoing primary per-cutaneous coronary intervention (n=50 patients) by making 4 cycles of repeated occlusion & re-perfusion 30-second each by inflation/deflation of an appropriately sized per-cutaneous trans-luminal coronary angioplasty balloon.The other group will be investigated after re-perfusion by primary per-cutaneous coronary intervention without ischemic post-conditioning (n=50 patients)

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients presenting with symptoms of acute myocardial ischemia with time of symptom onset < 12 hours & meeting the other following criteria of type 1 myocardial infarction according to the fouth universal definition of myocardial infarction(Thygesen, 2019):

    • Detection of a rise and/or fall of cardiac troponin values with at least one value above the 99th percentile upper reference limit.(URL)
    • Ischemic ECG changes; New or persistent ST-segment elevation with development of pathological Q waves
    • Imaging evidence of new loss of viable myocardium or new regional wall motion abnormality in a pattern consistent with an ischemic etiology.
  2. Patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention as the first choice of revascularization therapy.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients with transient ST segment elevation in the surface electrocardiography.
  2. Patients presenting within > 12 hours from the onset of maximal symptoms.
  3. Patients with evidence of pre-infarction angina.
  4. Patients with evidence of collateral blood flow to the infarct region on their angiogram.
  5. Patients with history of old myocardial infarction causing chronic impairment of LV systolic function.
  6. Patients presenting with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction other than type 1 according to the fouth universal definition of myocardial infarction

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Left ventricular remodeling
Time Frame: Immediate-6 months
percentage of increase in left ventricular end-diastolic volume (EDV) and/or left ventricular end-systolic volume (ESV)
Immediate-6 months

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
