NCT04562272

Brief Summary

Patients with anterior wall AMI treated by PCI will undergo, after successful revascularization of the infarct artery, measurement of the left ventricular pressure, and femoral angiogram. Patients with elevated LV pressure and adequate femoral access will be randomized to standard pharmacological treatment of AMI vs. mechanical unloading by Impella-CP (on top of the standard treatment) for 36-48 hours. LV unloading will be guided by measurement of PCWP by Swan-Ganz catheter. On the day 4-7, and at 3 months after the AMI, the patients will undergo SPECT and 3D-echocardiography to assess ventricular remodeling and extent of the post-infarct scar. The patients will be followed for at least 12 months for the occurrence of heart failure and adverse cardiovascular events. The study will test the hypothesis, whether the LV mechanical unloading after PCI will attenuate post-infarct scar and cardiac remodeling.

    Absolute change in the LVESV measured by SPECT and compared between the groups

    LV end-systolic volume measured during the index hospitalization (day 5-7) and at 3 months

  • Occurrence of LV remodeling

    Occurrence of LV remodeling defined by the increase of LV end-systolic volume \>20%

    LV end-systolic volume measured during the index hospitalization (day 5-7) and at 3 months

  • Extent of post-infarct scar

    Extent of post-infarct scar measured by Tc-SPECT and compared between the groups

    LV scar extent measured during the index hospitalization (day 5-7) and at 3 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • CV complications

    during the first 5 day after AMI

  • heart failure

    during the first 5 day after AMI

Other Outcomes (3)

  • self-assessed dyspnea

    day 1, 2 and 5

  • lung water

    day 1, 2 and 5

  • maximum hs-TnT, BNP, serum lactate

    during the first 5 day after AMI

Study Arms (2)

Mechanical unloading

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Mechanical unloading by Impella-CP for 36-48 hours, on top of the standard treatment

Procedure: LV mechanical unloading by Impella-CP

Standard care

NO INTERVENTION

Standard treatment of AMI after PCI according to guidelines.

Interventions

The patients will receive Impella-CP for 36-48 hours. The pump speed and LV unloading will be guided by PCWP (Swan-Ganz catheter)

Also known as: Abiomed Impella-CP
Mechanical unloading

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • large anterior wall AMI with estimated ischemia of \<24h
  • at risk of the beginning of cardiogenic shock (SCAI A/B)
  • blood pressure \<160/100 mmHg
  • no previous IM based on the patient's history
  • no previously known LV systolic dysfunction
  • assumed new LV dysfunction documented by ECHO or LVG (LVEF \< 45%)
  • infarct culprit lesion at the proximal LAD, LMCA or equivalent, with TIMI \<= 2 flow
  • LV end-diastolic pressure of \>= 18 mmHg measured invasively

You may not qualify if:
