Objective To evaluate the safety and feasibility of the implication of Cypher~(TM) drug-eluting stent in primary PTCA of acute myocardial infarction.Methods From November,2002 to November,2004,77cases of acute myocardial infarction patients enrolled into our hospital were treated by PCI within 12 hours after the heart attack.All patients were divided into two groups:Cypher~(TM) drug-eluting stent group(38) and conventional stainless steel stent group(39).Results The success rate of PCI were 100% in either group.38 Cypher~(TM) drug-eluting stent and 39 conventional stainless steel stent were implanted respectively.There was no significant difference in CAG result or clinical state among these two groups.Conclusion Cypher~(TM) drug-eluting stent can be safely and efficiently used in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
