Summary

The aim of the RAPID study is to evaluate the superiority rapid onset of action of Ticagrelor 360 mg LD versus Prasugrel 60 mg LD, in 50 patients with STEMI (ST segment elevation myocardial infarction) undergoing PPCI with bivalirudin monotherapy. Secondary study aim is to found out clinical predictors of high residual platelet reactivity in the first hour after a novel oral antiplatelet agent LD.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Prasugrel

25 patients with STEMI undergoing PPCI with bivalirudin (GP IIb/IIIa not allowed) will be randomized to receive Prasugrel before PPCI. The loading dose of Prasugrel will be 60 mg. 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 first hour after drug loading dose a new reduced loading dose will be administered .
