Intracoronary Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction: TRACIA STUDY.

Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ejection fraction (EF) increase at 6 months follow up and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) after intracoronary autologous stem cell transplantation in ST elevation myocardial infarction patients versus a control group.
