Overview

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn the effect of low level tragus stimulation (LLTS) on echocardiographic parameter in patient with ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) who undergo primart percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). It will also learn about the safety of LLTS in such setting. The main questions, it aims to answer are compared with sham control:

Does LLTS could alter left ventricular ejection fraction in patients with STEMI? Does LLTS could alter wall motion score index in patients with STEMI? Does LLTS could alter diastolic dysfunction in patients with STEMI?

Researchers will compare LLTS to sham LLTS control to see if LLTS have benefit in participants with STEMI participants will divided into two group i.e. treatment group vs control (sham/placebo) group..

Both groups undergo transthoracal echocardiographi examination before and after PPCI..

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
