Study summary

The study intends to evaluate the efficacy of early rhBNP on myocardial remodeling and reperfusion in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction after percutaneous coronary intervention

Read the detailed description

As prospectively observational study,it brings anterior acute myocardial infarct patients from 2018 JAN. to 2019 JAN, whose predefined time between symptom onset and percutaneous is not more than 12 hours. The door-to-balloon time, present to balloon time and first medical contact-to-balloon time will be documented. ECG in FMC and 90min after PCI also will be record. Patients assigned to the rhBNP group will receive intravenous rhBNP before PCI,and the variety of heart rate and blood pressure will be record. Routinely evaluation of corrected TIMI frame counting(CTFC), TIMI myocardial perfusion frame counting and TIMI myocardial perfusion grade(TMPG).Blood tests including BNP, CK-MB and CRP are measured at admission and6, 12, 24, 48 hours after PCI. Both Cardiovascular magnetic imaging and echocardiography will be applied in Day 30 and 12 months. The composite endpoint is incidence of all-cause mortality, reinfarct, stroke and target vessel revascularization at hospitalization and follow-up. Principally patients are prevented from any drug affecting microcirculation (GPIIb/IIa receptor agonist, vascular dilation drug, etc.), otherwise it is necessary, which should be documented.

Eligibility criteria

Patients are eligible for enrollment if they are suspected as anterior myocardial infarct (anterior myocardial infarct is defined as persistent chest pain for 30 mins at least, with ST-segment elevation of at least 0.2 mV in two or more contiguous precordial leads) within 12 hours after onsets of symptom, and no contraindication for rhBNP. The coronary angiography (CAG) proves left anterior descending (LAD) as culprit vessel, which was totally or nearly occlusion with TIMI 0-1 grade and resulted in TIMI 3 grade after PCI.

Exclusive criteria:

  1. Killips grade III-IV.
  2. unstable hemodynamic; with A-V block or atrial fibrillation;
  3. Contraindication of magnetic resonance, such as history of metal, ICD or paceman implant;
  4. history of myocardial infarct;
  5. pregnancy or breeding;
  6. combined with other serious diseases: severe renal dysfunction (creatinine clearance\<30ml/min;), liver failure, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, acute pancreatitis;
  7. life expectancy≤12 months

Study arms

  • Experimental

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Compound endpoints of epicardium and endocardium perfusion

    Both the TIMI and TMPG score reach 3 immediately after PCI, besides ST resolution≥70% at 90min after PCI.

    Time frame: 90min after infarct related artery revascularization

Secondary outcomes

  1. ST-segment Resolution

    Resolution of the initial sum of ST-segment elevation ≥ 70%

    Time frame: 90 mins after PCI

  2. Wall motion score index (WMSI) and LVEF by echocardiography

    Echocardiographic index includes WMSI and LVEF

    Time frame: Day 1, 3, 7, 30 and 12 month after PCI

  3. TIMI Flow Grade (TFG)

    TIMI Flow Grade (TFG)assesses flow in the epicardial arteries

    Time frame: One mins after PCI

  4. TIMI Frame Count (CTFC)

    CTFC is a continuous measurement assessing flow in the epicardial arteries.

    Time frame: One mins after PCI

  5. TIMI Myocardial Perfusion Grade (TMPG)

    TMPG is an angiographic measure of myocardial perfusion

    Time frame: One mins after PCI

  6. TIMI Myocardial Perfusion Frame Count (TMPFC)

    TMPFC is a novel method to standardize and quantify myocardial perfusion by timing the filling and washout of contrast in the myocardium using cine-angiographic frame-counting. Briefly, the first frame of TMPFC was defined as the frame that clearly demonstrated the first appearance of myocardial blush beyond the IRA (F1). The last frame of TMPFC was then defined as the frame where contrast or myocardial blush disappeared (F2). TMPFC is F2-F1 frame counts at a filming rate of 15 frames/sec, or (F2-F1)×2 frame counts at the corrected filming rate of 30 frames/sec

    Time frame: One mins after PCI

  7. CMR imaging

    CMR imaging will be collected using a 3.0-Tesla-scanner (Achieva, Philips Healthcare, The Netherlands) under electrocardiogram-triggered gating in School Shanghai Jiaotong University school of medicine RenJi hospital.

    Time frame: Day 1, 3, 7, 30 and 12 month after PCI

Other outcomes

  1. hemodynamic adverse related to rhBNP

    low perfusion sign, and Noninvasive systolic blood pressure is below 90mmHg with or without diastolic blood pressure below 60mmHg, Excluding other reason.

    Time frame: 72 hour since rhBNP administration
