Summary
Brief summary
This study investigates the effect of doxycycline, a commonly used antibiotic, on reducing heart muscle injury when given before angioplasty and stenting of the coronary artery is performed. Patients will be assessed with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (the current gold-standard test) to determine the amount of heart muscle damage and heart function. Doxycycline is an inexpensive antibiotic that has numerous other beneficial effects, which might make it useful as an additional therapy for the emergent treatment of patients presenting with heart attacks. This medication has been used safely in adults for various infectious disease and has been tested in critically ill patients and found to be safe. If doxycycline can help lessen heart muscle injury and preserve heart function, it could change the way heart attacks are currently treated. Furthermore, it will be a very cost-effective add-on therapy.
