Summary

The conceptual hypothesis of this study is that, in patients with acute myocardial infarction and ST-segment elevation, the strategy of performing coronary angioplasty of the culprit artery with paclitaxel eluting stent significantly reduces the rate of restenosis in comparison with bare stents.

The conceptual hypothesis of this study is that, in patients with acute myocardial infarction and ST-segment elevation, the strategy of performing coronary stent-angioplasty of the culprit artery under the protection of tirofiban 120 minutes after fibrinolytic significantly improves epicardial and myocardial infusion in comparison with the strategy of performing immediate intravenous thrombolysis (tenecteplase plus enoxaparine) followed by coronary angiography and adequate revascularization.
