Further study details as provided by University of Aarhus:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    MACE defined as all cause mortality, rehospitalization for heart failure, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Data are collected from Danish nationwide registries and medical records.


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • LV-function and remodeling [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    LV-function and remodeling measured by echocardiography.


Enrollment: 251
Study Start Date: February 2007
Estimated Study Completion Date: September 2012
Estimated Primary Completion Date: September 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: 1. Remote ischemic perconditioning
Intermittent arm ischemia through four cycles of 5-min inflation and 5-min deflation of a blood-pressure cuff started in the ambulance before admission to primary percutaneous coronary intervention (intervention group).
 Procedure: Remote ischemic perconditioning
Intermittent arm ischemia through four cycles of 5-min inflation and 5-min deflation of a blood-pressure cuff started in the ambulance before admission to primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
No Intervention: 2.
Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (control group).
