1000Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) is the gold standard of treatment of ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).Slow flow / no-reflow phenomenon following PPCI in STEMI patients has been a serious and common complication that closely related to the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and affected patients' prognosis. No reflow is a multi-factorial phenomenon. And its preventive and therapeutic effects are not satisfactory. This prospective randomized controlled study aimed to compare favorable effects of Nitroprusside versus Tirofiban on the prevention of slow flow / no-reflow phenomenon during PPCI.
Intracoronary infusion 50~100μg each time (repeated)
Intracoronary infusion 10μg/kg for single time
Intracoronary infusion 2ml for single time
After coronary target vessel blood flow recovery by thrombus aspiration or/and balloon angioplasty (diameter ≤ 2.0mm), intracoronary infusion of Nitroprusside Sodium via guide-catheter was performed. Then repeated administration of Nitroprusside Sodium was done prior to coronary stent implantation or post dilatation.
After coronary target vessel blood flow recovery by thrombus aspiration or/and balloon angioplasty (diameter ≤ 2.0mm), intracoronary infusion of Tirofiban Hydrochloride via guide-catheter was performed.
After coronary target vessel blood flow recovery by thrombus aspiration or/and balloon angioplasty (diameter ≤ 2.0mm), intracoronary infusion of heparinized saline via guide-catheter was performed.
