Randomized design with two groups and fixed sample size. Control patients received routine coronary care. The treatment group received intravenous streptokinase plus conventional care. This was followed with intravenous heparin and warfarin. The primary endpoint was 14 day mortality. Secondary endpoints included angiographic patency of the involved coronary artery at 10 to 14 days, left ventricular function, segmental wall motion analysis, and myocardial infarction size at 30-45 days.
