Intervention
Outcome measures
Primary outcome
Combined incidence of death, re-infarction and hospitalization for recurrent ischemia at 30 days follow-up.
Secondary outcome
1. Enzymatic Infarct Size as assessed by a single cardiac Troponin T, measured at 72-96 hours after admission or at discharge;
2. The percentage of patients without a rise in CKmb during admission.
Background summary
It concerns a prospective, randomized, multi center trial, comparing immediate vs delayed intervention in patients with non ST elevation myocardial infarction who present with extensive ST segment depression. The primary endpoint is the combined incidence of death, re-infarction and hospitalization for recurrent ischemia at 30 days follow-up.
Study objective
Primary
1. An immediate invasive approach (immediate angiography and revascularization when appropriate) results in a reduction of the combined incidence of death, re-infarction or recurrent ischemia at 30 days follow-up.
Secondary
1. An immediate invasive approach (immediate angiography and revascularisation when appropriate) results in a reduction of enzymatic infarct size as assessed by a single troponin T measurement at 72-96 hours after admission or at discharge.
2. An immediate invasive approach (immediate angiography and revascularisation when appropriate) results in
a higher percentage of patients without a rise in CKmb during hospital admission.
Intervention
Immediate angiography and revascularization reduces compared to delayed angiography not earlier than 48 hours after admission.
