Descriptive Information

Brief Title  ICMJEEndocardial Stem Cells Approach Efficacy
Official Title  ICMJEEfficacy of the Endocardial Stem Cells Implantation in Ischemic Heart Failure Patients
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to test that endocardial stem cells implantation in patients who have CAD, low ejection fraction and signs of HF without possibility of CABG and PCI or despite on previous revascularization improves long-term survival compared to MED alone
