Testing a new timing for heart attack protection
NCT ID NCT01483755
Summary
This study tested if a protective technique used during artery-opening procedures could still reduce heart damage if applied a few minutes later than usual. It involved 72 patients who had a major heart attack but still had some blood flow to the blocked artery. Researchers measured heart damage using MRI scans to see if the delayed technique was effective.
