Heart pump first: new strategy aims to save more heart muscle after major attack

NCT ID NCT03947619

Ongoing Disease control Sponsor: Abiomed Inc. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Summary

This study is testing if using a small heart pump called the Impella CP for 30 minutes before the standard artery-opening procedure can reduce permanent damage to the heart muscle during a severe type of heart attack. It compares this new approach to the current standard of care. The goal is to see if this method leads to better long-term heart health and fewer future heart problems for patients.
