Popis: Inhibition of the sodium‐hydrogen exchanger (NHE) is a powerful experimental tool to inhibit sodium and calcium accumulation within the ischemic myocyte and halt progression of cell ischemia to cell necrosis. This paper describes the protocol and rationale of a first largescale clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of cariporide, a novel specific and potent inhibitor of the exchanger.
