Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is compare the improvement in global and regional cardiac function measured by echocardiography and magnetic resonance in patients with old myocardial infarction subject to cardiac catheterisation with percutaneous endocavity implantation of autologous myoblasts.


Clinical Trial Description

Ischaemic heart disease is one of the main causes of mortality and morbidity. In particular, myocardial infarction (MI) is of special significance, as the heart muscle cannot regenerate so a region's necrosis leads to the formation of a fibrous scar. In the last few years, new treatments have been developed for the acute phase of myocardial infarction.We have managed to slow down disease progression with these new treatments, but it continues to the development of end stage heart failure. This study tries to determine the benefit of cell cardiomyoplasty with autologous myoblasts in patients with old MI. ;
