Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has become the standard of care for STEMI procedures, while those for distal embolization and no-reflow remain challenging.1,2 Distal embolization is angiographically evident in 15% of patients...

Abstract: The results of meta-analyses of studies on manual thrombus aspiration and mechanical thrombectomy support the use of manual aspiration catheters and contraindicate the use of mechanical thrombectomy devices. However, the two largest...

Acute myocardial infarction is often due to complete coronary occlusion and large thrombus burden. This is associated with poor clinical outcomes due to distal embolization, no-reflow, major adverse events, and death after angioplasty.1,2...

Abstract: The presence of visible thrombus at the time of primary PCI for STEMI is associated with poor procedural and clinical outcomes. Aspiration thrombectomy has been used with primary PCI in an attempt to improve these outcomes. The...
