Coronary Thromboaspiration and Infarct Size

Summary

Distal embolization can occur during coronary angioplasty performed in the acute phase of myocardial infarction and is associated with poor long-term outcome. We hypothesize that the use of a system allowing thrombus aspiration before angioplasty and stent implantation will limit infarct size and its severity.
