Experimental: Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold
Implantation of of an everolimus eluting bioresorbable scaffold in patients with STEMI treated with primary PCI
|
Device: Bioresorbable vascular scaffold
stenting of an acute thrombotic lesion in patient within STEMI
Other Name: BVS, ABSORB (Abbot Vascular) |
Active Comparator: Everolimus Eluting stent
Implantation of of an everolimus eluting stent in patients with STEMI treated with primary PCI
|
Device: Everolimus eluting stent
stenting of an acute thrombotic lesion in patient within STEMI
Other Name: Xience Prime (Abbott Vascular) |
- Procedural and Clinical success [ Time Frame: Patients will be followed for the duration of hospital stay (4-8 days) ]
Procedural success: The deployment of BVS at the intended target lesion with a final residual stenosis ≤20% and a TIMI 2-3 coronary flow by visual estimation without major periprocedural complication (death, emergent CABG, coronary perforation, flow limiting coronary dissection).
Clinical success: any major in-hospital events (deaths, reinfarction, urgent revascularization, stroke, major bleedings)
- The MACE [ Time Frame: six months ]cumulative incidence of cardiac death, non fatal myocardial infarction and target lesion revascularization
- stent thrombosis [ Time Frame: six months ]cumulative incidence of definite or probable stent thrombosis defined according to the Academic Research Consortium definition
