Background and study aims
The difficulties encountered in treating patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain a challenge. Ginkgo biloba injection is frequently administered to alleviate symptoms of angina pectoris and coronary heart disease. The aim of this research was to assess the healing impact of combining ginkgo damo injection with antiplatelet therapy in STEMI patients post-PCI.

Who can participate?
Patients undergoing PCI after acute ST elevation myocardial infarction.

What does the study involve?
Effect of ginkgo damo injection combined with antiplatelet therapy on STEMI patients after PCI.

What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
The benefits of participating:(1) Access to new treatment opportunities. (2) Reduce the economic burden. (3) You can learn more about the latest information about your disease. (4) Get more attention from doctors. (5) Access to quality medical services.
The risks of participating :it need to expend more energy; the treatment is not effective

Where is the study run from?
The Affiliated Hospital of Weifang Medical University (China)

When is the study starting and how long is it expected to run for?
September 2020 to December 2022

Who is funding the study?

Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedPercutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)
InterventionA total of 220 patients who underwent PCI following acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction at the Affiliated Hospital of Weifang Medical University were included in this study. Patients were randomly assigned into two groups: the control group (n=100) and the observation group (n=120).

In the control group, patients received standard antiplatelet therapy following PCI, including orally administered aspirin enteric-coated tablets (100mg per dose, once daily) and clopidogrel bisulfate tablets (75mg per dose, once daily) for a continuous treatment duration of 14 days, in addition to basic treatment.

In contrast, the observation group received the same antiplatelet therapy regimen as the control group. Additionally, they were administered ginkgo damo injection. Ginkgo damo injection, consisting of 10mL, was added to 250mL of normal saline and administered via intravenous infusion once daily for a continuous treatment duration of 14 days.

The control group received no additional special treatment beyond the conventional therapy.
Intervention typeMixed
Primary outcome measureCardiac function index: For the examination of cardiac function index, the cardiac output (CO) and cardiac index (cardiac index) were measured by color Doppler ultrasound (Minrui DC-N2S) before and after treatment in the two groups. CI, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and other cardiac function indicators.
Secondary outcome measures1. Bleeding risk: According to Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) bleeding classification criteria ,the number of cases of type 3 or type 5 bleeding during hospitalization and 30 days after discharge will be counted.
2. Embolization risk: thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) blood flow rating and TIMI myocardial perfusion grade (TMPG) :TIMI blood flow grading and myocardial perfusion grading (TMPG) will be compared between the two groups before and after treatment.
3. Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) :Patients will follow up 30 days after hospitalization and discharge and MACE will be recorded, including cardiac death, myocardial infarction, recurrent angina pectoris, and revascularization.
