Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients scheduled for emergency angioplasty in the acute phase of a first ST-elevation myocardial infarction will be treated either by thromboaspiration followed by angioplasty or by angioplasty alone. The infarct size and severity will be assessed by ce-MRI and rest Tc99m-mibi gated SPECT performed during initial hospital stay (5th-8th day). A control MRI will be performed at 6-month follow-up to analyse the evolution of left ventricular volumes.
