Summary

This study will assess the safety and feasibility of sonothrombolysis in the acute management of STEMI undergoing reperfusion therapy with systemic fibrinolysis as part of a pharmacoinvasive approach

• Phase: Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

• Lead Sponsor: University of Alberta
• Collaborator: Canadian VIGOUR Centre

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• >2mm ST-segment elevation in 2 inferior leads coupled with ST-segment depression in 2 contiguous anterior leads for a total ST-segment deviation of >4mm

3. Age >30 years

4. Adequate apical and/or parasternal images by echocardiography

Exclusion Criteria:
