NCT00538317

Brief Summary

In patients with acute myocardial infarction who are managed in the prehospital setting, and who will treated with primary angioplasty, we evaluate the benefit of an early administration of tirofiban, a powerful GPIIbIIIa inhibitors. Patients are randomised to early administration in the ambulance or administration in the cathlab. The primary endpoint is TIMI 2-3 flow in the first coronary opacification of the culprit artery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • TIMI 2-3 flow on first coronary artery opacification

    start of coronarography

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Protocol déviations of Tirofiban administration (no bolus, bolus decreasing or increasing of +/- 10% from expected value, dose perfusion decreasing or increasing of 1 ml/h from expected value, time perfusion > 24h or < 18h

    During tirofiban administration

  • TIMI 3, TIMI 2 and TIMI 1-0 flow frequency in responsible artery before and after angioplasty

    before and after angioplasty

  • left ventricular ejection fraction value

    during angioplasty

  • CPK and troponin values (before and after angioplasty, peak and 24h after angioplasty)

    during 24h after angioplasty

  • reduction of ST segment elevation (considered as resoluted if amplitude decreasing > 70%)

    after angioplasty

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

1

EXPERIMENTAL

2

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

tirofiban bolus + perfusion started at the beginning of coronarography (usual use of tirofiban)

Drug: tirofiban

Interventions

bolus of 25 µg/kg lasting 3 minutes then 18h to 24h perfusion of 0.15 µg/kg/min
