Conditions

ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Brief summary

This is a prospective, randomized study with blinded outcome assessment, comparing routine manual thrombus aspiration with no aspiration in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Detailed description

This is a prospective, randomized study with blinded outcome assessment, comparing routine manual thrombus aspiration with no aspiration in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patients who are diagnosed as STEMI and referred for PCI will be enrolled. They will be randomized 1:1 to either manual thrombus aspiration with PCI group or PCI alone group.The primary outcome is the composite of cardiovascular death, recurrent myocardial infarction (MI), cardiogenic shock, stroke, new or worsening NYHA class IV heart failure during 1 year follow-up. The secondary efficacy outcome are stent thrombosis, target vessel revascularization, left ventricular function and quality of life during 1 year follow-up.
