Drug Elution and Distal Protection in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Description:The goal of the trial was to evaluate embolic protection prior to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) compared with PCI without embolic protection in native vessels in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Hypothesis:Embolic protection prior to PCI will be more effective in improving myocardial perfusion than PCI without embolic
