Summary

Multinational, multicentre, randomised, prospective, open, parallel group study directly comparing two glycoprotein-IIb/IIIa inhibitors, abciximab and eptifibatide, added early to standard treatment before primary PCI of STEMI patients with respect to effect on sum-ST-resolution after 60 minutes post-procedure and other measures of myocardial reperfusion

Conditions

  • Infarction, Myocardial

Interventions

DRUG

Abciximab

Intravenous bolus of 0.25 mg/kg followed by continuous intravenous infusion of 0.125 mcg/kg/min (max. 10 mcg/min) for 12 h after PCI.

DRUG

Eptifibatide

Intravenous bolus of 180 mcg/kg followed immediately by a continuous infusion of 2.0 mdg/kg/ min for 20-24 h after end of PCI, and a second bolus of 180 mcg/kg administered 10 min after the first bolus.
