Summary

KoMPiS is a contrast aided cardiac magnetic resonance study of microvascular obstruction and left ventricular remodelling following acute revascularised anterior myocardial infarction. The study will monitor the included patients for 12 months following the acute myocardial infarct and collect data from MR scans and blood samples. The study is designed to demonstrate that obstruction of blood flow in the peripheral (small) vessels of the cardiac muscle is an important factor in the post-MI development of left ventricle dysfunction that occurs in many patients, despite of a successful re-opening of the occluded coronary artery that caused the MI.
