Edina Cenko Shared STRIVE Trial – Intracoronary Alteplase Shows No Advantage in STEMI
Edina Cenko, Chairperson of ESC Working Group on Coronary Pathophysiology and Microcirculation, posted on LinkedIn:
”The STRIVE trial showed that intracoronary alteplase during primary PCI for STEMI with high thrombus burden did not improve MACE, ST-segment resolution or myocardial blush grade compared with placebo, with a signal toward more ventricular fibrillation.
Once more, no adjunctive strategy has yet succeeded in improving downstream microvascular perfusion after epicardial flow is restored. The search for an effective solution in MVO after STEMI continues.”
