Summary

The investigators examined the mechanism underlying the lack of benefit from distal protection and thrombus aspiration (DP-TA) in 126 patients with ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) in a prospective, randomized trial.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • 30 and less than 80 years presenting with STEMI
  • more than 30 minutes but less than 12 hours after symptom onset
  • with ≥ 2 mm of ST-segment elevation in 2 or more contiguous leads or with a presumably new left bundle-branch block
  • for whom primary PCI was intended

Exclusion Criteria

  • included thrombolytic therapy before PCI;
  • spontaneous restoration of coronary flow (> TIMI grade II or III);
  • cardiogenic shock (Killip class IV);
  • major surgery or active bleeding within 6 weeks;
  • aspirin, thienopyridine, or heparin allergy;
  • neutropenia ( 2.5 mg/dL [221 μmol/L]);
  • noncardiac condition with expected survival less than 1 year;
  • current participation in other investigations.
