Purpose

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of three different vasodilators including diltiazem, verapamil and nitroglycerin for reversal of no-reflow/slow-flow during direct percutaneous coronary intervention for acute myocardial infarction.

Vessel flow using TIMI flow grade and TIMI frame count [ Time Frame: post-PCI ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) [ Time Frame: within the first 30 days after PCI ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) through echocardiography [ Time Frame: at 1 and 30 days post-PCI ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
NT-proBNP levels [ Time Frame: at 1 and 30 days post-PCI ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment:	100
Study Start Date:	December 2006
Estimated Study Completion Date:	August 2009
Estimated Primary Completion Date:	April 2009 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)

Arms	Assigned Interventions
D: Experimental If no-reflow/slow-flow phenomenon was observed post-PCI, intracoronary infusion of diltiazem via an infusion microcatheter distal to the angioplasty site was performed.	Drug: Diltiazem Intracoronary Infusion 400-2000ug
V: Active Comparator If no-reflow/slow-flow phenomenon was observed post-PCI, intracoronary infusion of verapamil via an infusion microcatheter distal to the angioplasty site was performed.	Drug: Verapamil Intracoronary Infusion 200-1000ug
N: Active Comparator If no-reflow/slow-flow phenomenon was observed post-PCI, intracoronary infusion of nitroglycerin via an infusion microcatheter distal to the angioplasty site was performed.	Drug: Nitroglycerin Intracoronary Infusion 200-1000ug

Detailed Description:

No-reflow/slow-flow is a frequent observation during direct PCI for AMI and associated with a poor clinical outcome. The present pharmacological management involves the use of different vasodilators including nitrates, verapamil, adenosine and nicorandil. But no randomized trial has been conducted to assess any of these agents, or to determine the appropriate dosage. This prospective randomized study aimed to confirm favorable effects of diltiazem on no-reflow/slow-flow during direct PCI for AMI compared with verapamil and nitroglycerin.
