NCT00326989

Brief Summary

Extracorporal shock wave therapy is performed prior to cell therapy for induction of therapeutic neovascularization and improvement of homing of bone marrow progenitor cells in patients with chronic ischemic heart disease following anterior myocardial infarction. Shock waves can induce growth factor expression in the ischemic myocardium and might augment homing of autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells which are injected intracoronary 24 h following shock wave therapy
