About this study

This is a prospective, randomized, multicenter trial. Patients will be randomized either to be treated by PTCA only or in combination with the An-gioGuard™ XP device. The patients will be followed for six-months post-procedure.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Acute myocardial infarction < 12 hours with ST segment elevation > 2 mm in at least 2 contiguous leads;
  • Clinical indication of primary PTCA;
  • De novo or restenotic lesions in native coronary vessel, single vessel treatment only;
  • Target lesion stenosis is > 80% (by visual estimation).

Exclusion criteria

  • Patient has unprotected left main coronary disease with > 50% stenosis in case left coronary artery is treated;
  • Patient has an ostial target lesion;
  • Killip class > 3.
