Clinical Trial Summary

Successfully perfused STEMI patients will receive routine transthoracic echocardiography qid for 4 days or placebo. Myocardial function and infarct size will be evaluated at 3 and 6 months.


Clinical Trial Description

Patients who had acute STEMI and successfully reperfused by either thrombolytic therapy or primary angioplasty and stenting will be included this study.

A basal routine echocardiography will be obtained in all patients after reperfusion therapy. Thereafter, patients will be divided into two groups: 1.Treatment group will receive transthoracic echocardiography using Philips HD11 XE ® for 30 minutes qid for 4 days. 2. Placebo group will have the same Philips HD11 XE ® echo transducer applied for the same time and duration on their chest but with the ultrasound turned-off. Detailed left and right ventricle function as well as performance index and stress-strain imaging will be obtained and analyzed at 3 and 6 months. ;
