Official Title: Rapid Endovascular Catheter Core Cooling Combined With Cold Saline as an Adjunct to Percutaneous Coronary Intervention For the Treatment of Acute Myocardial Infarction
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment of patients suffering from ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with 1-2 liters of cold saline and central venous catheter cooling with Philips InnerCool RTx Endovascular System prior to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) result in a reduction in infarct size.
Detailed Summary:
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the leading cause of mortality in the western world today. Although reperfusion of the ischemic myocardium is a prerequisite for myocardial salvage, it has been described that the reperfusion in itself may cause additional damage to the myocardium (reperfusion injury). In the safety & feasibility trial RAPID MI-ICE we demonstrated that treatment of patients suffering from STEMI with 1-2 liters of cold saline and central venous catheter cooling with Philips InnerCool RTx Endovascular System prior to PCI was feasible, safe and resulted in a 38% reduction in infarct size/myocardium at risk. The aim of the present study is to confirm this finding in a larger multicenter trial.
The study is a randomized, controlled, evaluator blinded, multicenter trial enrolling 120 patients at ten sites.
