NCT04912570

Brief Summary

Recent guidelines for the management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) recommend against the routine use of thrombus aspiration (TA) during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) (Class III indication). Yet, so far, there is limited data regarding its role STEMI patients with heavy thrombus burden (TB). The aim of this trial is to evaluate the effects of manual TA and PCI in comparison to conventional PCI alone in a real-life clinical trial among heavy TB STEMI patients undergoing PPCI.

    Incidence of any major adverse cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events which includes: death (either all-cause or cardiac), nonfatal myocardial infarction, stroke and revascularization (with optional additional specification of target vessel or lesion, i.e., if the revascularization occurred at the site of a previously identified diseased coronary vessel or atherosclerotic lesion, respectively)

    10 days

  • Short term Major adverse cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events (MACCE)

    Incidence of any major adverse cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events which includes: death (either all-cause or cardiac), nonfatal myocardial infarction, stroke and revascularization (with optional additional specification of target vessel or lesion, i.e., if the revascularization occurred at the site of a previously identified diseased coronary vessel or atherosclerotic lesion, respectively) in the period of 6 months after randomization.
