About this trial
This is a prospective, multicenter clinical investigation aiming to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the coronary sinus balloon pump in its first application in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Subjects aged ≥18 and ≤80 years with clinically confirmed ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Left Ventricular Dysfunction: Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤50% assessed by pre-PCI echocardiography or left ventriculography.
Ischemic Symptoms: Presence of myocardial infarction symptoms consistent with ischemic timing (e.g., persistent chest pain, with or without dyspnea, nausea/vomiting, diaphoresis, syncope), with symptom onset between 6 and 24 hours prior to enrollment.
Acute anterior wall myocardial infarction confirmed by 12-lead ECG, demonstrating ST-segment elevation ≥1 mm (0.1 mV) in ≥2 contiguous precordial leads.
Disqualifiers
Presence of implants or foreign bodies within the coronary sinus.
Target lesion involving the left main coronary artery or ≥50% stenosis in the left main coronary artery.
Known hypersensitivity to medications or devices required during PCI or the investigational device (including but not limited to: rapamycin, polyurethane in dual antiplatelet therapy, PET, or stainless steel).
Pericardial effusion (moderate or larger volume), cardiac tamponade, hemodynamically significant left/right shunts, or severe valvular heart disease.
