Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Index of Microvascular Resistance
We will assess IMR in the catheterisation laboratory immediately before PCI, then intracoronary reopro or placebo will be administered and we will re-assess IMR 15 minutes post delivery of the study drug. Finally we will perform PCI and immediately measure IMR post-procedure.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Incidence of periprocedural myocardial infarction
We will assess for periprocedural myocardial infarction 8 to 24 hours post PCI

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Microvascular dysfunction is a key determinant of pathogenesis and outcome in patients suffering an acute myocardial infarction.
The investigators hypothesise that treatment with intracoronary abciximab, a potent anti platelet agent, at the time of coronary stent insertion, will improve microvascular function.
Detailed Description
The index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR), an invasive measure of coronary microvascular function, correlates with clinical outcomes in patients with stable angina and ST elevation myocardial infarction. The glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor inhibitor, abciximab, improves coronary microvascular function and reduces major cardiac adverse events in patients with acute coronary syndromes. This study will investigate whether an intracoronary bolus of abciximab in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction decreases IMR and improves microvascular function.
