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.

In-hospital 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)
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.

Study Arms (2)
Manual Thrombus Aspiration
EXPERIMENTALManual Thrombus aspiration in STEMI patients with Heavy thrombus burden (TIMI 0-1 or TB classification 4-5)
Standard PCI
ACTIVE COMPARATORConventional PCI according to the most recent guidelines in STEMI patients with no heavy thrombus burden (TIMI 0-1 or TB classification 4-5)
Interventions
Manual thrombus aspiration using one of the FDA approved aspirators will be done.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- STEMI patients with heavy thrombus burden as assessed by TIMI score of 0-1 or thrombus burden classification 4-5
You may not qualify if:
- STEMI patients with low thrombus burden (TIMI 2-3 or TB 0-3)
- History of hypersensitivity or allergy to any of the study drugs, as well as known or suspected contraindications to the study drugs.
- Symptomatic hypotension and/or an SBP \< 100 mmHg at the time of randomization.
