Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aims to evaluate whether perioperative use of Shenfu Injection, as compared to placebo, could reduce infarct size assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in patients with acute anterior ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Shenfu injection is a traditional Chinese medicine formulation containing ginseng (Panax; family: Araliaceae) and aconite (Radix aconiti lateralis preparata, Aconitum carmichaeli Debx; family: Ranunculaceae) with Ginsenosides and aconite alkaloids as the main active ingredients. Its quality is strictly controlled in compliance with the standard of the China Ministry of Public Health (official approval code: certification number Z20043117; No. 110804, Ya'an, China). Animal studies have shown that Shenfu injection has protective effects against reperfusion injury through multiple pharmacologic effects, including scavenging free radicals, inhibiting inflammatory mediators, suppressing cell apoptosis, and inhibiting calcium overload. However, few data are available regarding its efficacy in humans. We aimed to determine whether perioperative use of Shenfu injection, as compared to placebo, might reduce infarct size in patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI.
