NCT00370578

Brief Summary

Early promising data are published focusing on the role of manual thrombus aspiration devices in patients with ST segment elevation (STEMI). The aim of our single center randomized study is to evaluate the early and late effect of thrombus aspiration device (AD) after every stage during Primary PCI in the set-up of STEMI population. Our hypothysis is that preforming thrombus aspiration after every stage of primary PCI may give early and late advantages compared to the standard primary PCI technique.
