Intracoronary Injection of Autologous Bone Marrow Cells in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure: Five Years Follow up

July 6, 2009 updated by: Assaf-Harofeh Medical Center
The study aim is to evaluate the long term outcome of intra-coronary autologous bone marrow (BM) transplantation in patients with severe ischemic cardiomyopathy without the option for revascularization.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Several studies have demonstrated the short term safety, feasibility and efficacy of cell transplantation in patients with advanced heart failure. There are no data about the long term outcome.
