Brief Summary

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

During primary percutaneous coronary intervention, distal embolization of thrombus and impaired microvascular perfusion has been associated with an increased mortality. Thrombectomy devices during primary percutaneous coronary intervention may prevent distal embolization by reducing thrombus burden and thus improve microvascular perfusion and reduce mortality.

Detailed Description

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

An individual patient meta-analysis of large randomized controlled trials comparing manual thrombectomy versus percutaneous coronary intervention alone in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction will provide significantly more power to detect differences in mortality as well as important but rare events such as stroke and to assess benefits in pre-defined subgroups.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Manual Aspiration Thrombectomy with PCI

Subjects from the randomized controlled trials to be included in this meta-analysis will have been randomly allocated to Manual Aspiration Thrombectomy followed by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Manual Aspiration Thrombectomy

Intervention Type DEVICE

Thrombus aspiration

PCI Alone

Subjects from the randomized controlled trials to be included in this meta-analysis will have been randomly allocated to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) alone without manual aspiration thrombectomy.
