Summary
The aim of SOCCER is to evaluate the effects of treatment with supplemental O2 before and
during acute balloon angioplasty (PCI) for patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction
(STEMI). One hundred STEMI patients are randomized in the ambulance to either standard O2
treatment (10 l/min) or no supplemental O2, to be given until the end of the acute PCI.
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and echocardiography during the hospital stay is used to
assess infarct size and myocardial performance. All patients are followed for 6 months. At 6
months, perceived health and NT-proBNP are recorded for all patients, and an additional
echocardiography is performed. The primary endpoint is the fraction of myocardium saved with
the acute PCI. The secondary endpoints include the pain difference between inclusion time and
start of PCI and myocardial performance on echocardiography.
