Summary

In a prospective, randomized clinical trial the iPOST2 trial will determine whether ischemic postconditioning reduces reperfusion injury and this will translate into improved clinical outcome of heart failure and death for STEMI patients who present with TIMI0-1 undergoing primary PCI

Conditions

  • ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Ischemic postconditioning

After 60 seconds of reperfusion, ischemic postconditioning with an adequately sized balloon (60 reperfusion/60 seconds re-occlusion, four cycles) will be performed

PROCEDURE

Conventional
