Summary

This study looked at whether a specific heart procedure, done a few minutes after blood flow returns naturally, can limit heart muscle damage in people having a major heart attack. 72 adults with a first heart attack and partially open arteries took part. Researchers measured heart damage using MRI scans and checked heart function after 6 months.
