- Abstract
The article discusses the results of the Counterpulsation to Reduce Infarct Size Pre-Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) Acute Myocardial Infarction (CRISP AMI) trial. The trial sought to determine whether routine placement of intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation (IABC) prior to reperfusion in anterior stent thrombosis (ST)-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients without cardiogenic shock results to a decrease in myocardial infarct size. Left ventricular (LV) mass was used as the basis to determine infarct size under the trial. The trial found that a combination of IABC and primary PCI did not reduce infarct size compared with PCI alone.
