Reduced Stent Strategy Versus Conventional Percutaneous Coronary Revascularization in Patients Presenting With STEMI
The objective is to compare a reduced stent strategy based on drug-coated balloon (DCB) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with conventional drug-eluting stent (DES) coronary revascularization in patients presenting with ST-segment myocardial infarction (STEMI). Randomization will be performed after successful culprit-lesion guidewire crossing and flow restoration. Random allocation in a 1:1 fashion to one of the following strategies: * Study group: reduced stent PCI strategy (DCB-based) * Control group: conventional PCI strategy (DES-based).
