Magnetic Resonance Imaging In Acute ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Clinical Relevance of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Acute ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging enables comprehensive assessment of cardiovascular function, morphology and pathology. The investigators aim to evaluate the nature and clinical significance of magnetic resonance imaging parameters in patients presenting with first acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: - First ST-elevation myocardial infarction according to the European Society of Cardiology/American College of Cardiology committee criteria - Primary percutaneous coronary intervention within 24 hours after symptom onset Who Should NOT Join This Trial: - Age \< 18 years - Any history of a previous myocardial infarction or coronary intervention - Clinically unstable patients (Killip class \>2) - Renal failure (estimated glomerular filtration rate \< 30 ml/min/1.73 m2) - Contraindications to cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (pacemaker, cerebral aneurysm clip, orbital foreign body, known or suggested contrast allergy to gadolinium, claustrophobia) - Inability to provide willing to sign a consent form Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
