Summary

Background and Objective: Acute coronary syndrome is characterized by compromised blood flow at the epicardial and microvascular levels. The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of ET-receptor blockade by BQ-123 on myocardial perfusion and infarct size as an adjunct to PCI-reperfusion therapy in patients with STEMI.

Patients are randomized to receive periinterventional intravenous BQ-123 or placebo.
