Background Primary PCI is the preferred reperfusion strategy in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction In the HORIZONS-AMI trial, 3602 pts were randomized to treatment with bivalirudin or unfractionated heparin + glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor (UFH+GPI). Within 12 months, there was a significant reduction of bleeding events and cardiac death in pts treated with bivalirudin as compared to UFH+GPI (eptifibatide or abciximab).
Background Abciximab has been reported to reduce microvascular obstruction and infarct size in STEMI. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) is a powerful tool to assess infarct size, microvascular obstruction and left ventricular function and volumes. Whether there are differences in infarct size, LV ejection fraction and volumes determined in CMRI between STEMI patients with primary PCI treated with bivalirudin or UFH+abciximab has not been addressed so far.
Successful primary PCI with stent implantation CMRI: within 7 days and after 6 months UFH + Abciximab + CMRI N=23 Bivalirudin + CMRI N=28 Harmonizing Outcomes with Revascularization and Stents in AMI Patients with STEMI with symptom onset ≤12 hours ASA 500mg i.v. Clopidogrel 600mg loading dose R 1:1 Bivalirudin monotherapy (± provisional abciximab) UFH + Abciximab

Conclusions In the prospective randomized HORIZONS-AMI trial including patients with primary PCI with stent implantation for STEMI, treatment with bivalirudin as compared to UFH+abciximab did not show a difference in CMRI parameters at baseline and at 6 months, including microvascular obstruction, infarct size, LV-EF and LV volumes.
