Conditions

  • ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Interventions

DRUG

Prasugrel

25 patients with STEMI undergoing PPCI with bivalirudin (GP IIb/IIIa not allowed ) will be enrolled to receive 60 mg Prasugrel loading dose before PPCI. The loading dose will be performed as soon as possible in the Emergency Room or in the Cath Lab. In the case of vomit in the 2 hours after drug loading dose a new loading dose will be administered.
