Trial Outcomes & Findings for Use of Intra-aortic Balloon Pump Before Surgery for Acute Myocardial Infarction (NCT NCT06468982)

NCT ID: NCT06468982

Last Updated: 2025-02-27

Results Overview

Daily repeated measurements of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTnI) on the ng/mL scale were compared between the two groups. The study hypothesizes that hs-cTnI levels decrease more rapidly in participants receiving IABP support compared to those without IABP. This decrease is posited to reflect a myocardial healing process.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 0-7 days

Population: Daily troponin results were recorded for both groups

Daily repeated measurements of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTnI) on the ng/mL scale were compared between the two groups. The study hypothesizes that hs-cTnI levels decrease more rapidly in participants receiving IABP support compared to those without IABP. This decrease is posited to reflect a myocardial healing process.
