NCT03445364

Brief Summary

Percutaneous coronary intervention for myocardial infarction with ST elevation could be complicated with thrombus embolisation to the more distal segments of the culprit artery. Hypothesis - lower injection pressure could reduce the incidence of this complication. In this study the investigators compare two different protocols for dye injection - first one with higher and the second one with lower injection pressure.The impact of different pressure will be evaluated using the estimation of completeness of resolution of ST elevation as well as Myocardial Blush Grade on the end of the procedure. Patents will be followed for in-hospital mortality and MACE.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Myocardial Blush Grade

    Myocardial Blush grade 0 to 3 (the highest)

    At the day of inclusion in the study; at the begining og the PCI procedure and second measure - 2 minutes before the end of the primary PCI, at the last cine of the infarct related artery and the corresponding myocardium

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Completeness of resolution of ST segment elevation

    At the first day of the inclusion in the study; ECG at admission and ECG at 60 to 90 minutes after the primary PCI procedure

Study Arms (2)

Low coronary injection-pressure, 200 psi

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients with STEMI who undergo Primary PCI with the use of low intracoronary dye injection pressure (of 200 psi), by using ACIST automated injector. Patients will recieve bare-metal stents at the courtasy of the interventional cardiologist, only in infarct-related artery. Use of different injection pressure during primary PCI

Other: Use of different injection pressure during primary PCI

High coronary injection-pressure,550 psi

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients with STEMI who undergo Primary PCI with the use of higher intracoronary dye injection pressure (of 500 psi), by using ACIST automated injector. Patients will recieve bare-metal stents at the courtasy of the interventional cardiologist, only in infarct-related artery. Use of different injection pressure during primary PCI

Other: Use of different injection pressure during primary PCI

Interventions

Using ACIST injector during the PCI it is possible to change injection pressure - in one arm low pressure of 200psi, and in the second arm average pressure of 550psi

High coronary injection-pressure,550 psiLow coronary injection-pressure, 200 psi
