Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age \>= 18 and \<= 75 years.
- Asian origin.
- Ischemic discomfort \>= 30 minutes in duration.
- Onset of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) symptoms within 6 hours prior to randomization.
- A twelve lead electrocardiogram (ECG) with one of the following:
- ST segment elevation \>= 0.1 mV in two or more limb leads; or
- \>= 0.2 mV in two or more contiguous precordial leads indicative of AMI.
- Ability to give informed consent.
You may not qualify if:
- Previous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery.
- Cardiogenic shock (e.g. systolic blood pressure \[SBP\] \< 90 mmHg).
- Systolic blood pressure (SBP) \>= 180 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) \>= 110 mmHg during current admission on one reliable measurement prior to randomization.
- Inability to undergo cardiac catheterization.
- Significant bleeding disorder either at present or within the past 6 months.
- Major surgery, biopsy of a parenchymal organ, or significant trauma within 3 months.
- Any minor head trauma and/or any other trauma that occurred after onset of current myocardial infarction.
- Use of heparin, GPIIb/IIIa antagonists or other anticoagulants within the last 2 weeks.
- Any known history of stroke or transient ischemic attack or central nervous system structural damage (i.e. neoplasm, aneurysm, intracranial surgery).
- Prolonged cardiopulmonary resuscitation (\> 10 minutes) within 2 weeks.
- Pregnancy, lactation or parturition within the previous 30 days. Women of childbearing potential must have had a negative pregnancy test and must have used a medically accepted method of birth control (i.e. uterine device, surgical sterilisation, progestogens alone).
- Previous treatment with TNK-tPA (tenecteplase).
- Inability to follow protocol and comply with follow-up.
- Drug abuse within the last year.
- Participation in another clinical trial within the previous 30 days.
