PHASE4

Brief Summary

The conceptual hypothesis of this study is that primary angioplasty is superior to a combined strategy of immediate thrombolysis followed by routine angioplasty in patients with ST-segment elevation a...

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, multicenter, open-label clinical trial comparing two strategies of reperfusion in STEMI. Patients will be randomly allocated to: primary angioplasty or post-thrombolysis angiopla...
