Sponsor
Ceric Sàrl
Enrollment
140 participants
Start Date
Feb 18, 2026
Study Type
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of sustained thrombectomy with INDIGO ASPIRATION SYSTEM using CAT RX versus no thrombectomy during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) on microvascular obstruction and infarct size, as measured by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) between 3 and 5 days post PPCI, in patients with anterior STEMI
Eligibility
Min Age: 18 YearsMax Age: 75 Years
Inclusion Criteria6
- Age >18 and <75 years old
- Acute anterior STEMI with ≥2 mm in two (2) or more contiguous anterior leads or ≥4 mm total ST-segment deviation sum in the anterior leads V1-V4 AND anterior wall motion abnormality noted on a diagnostic quality left ventriculogram or echocardiogram
- Culprit lesion proximal or mid LAD at coronary angiography
- TIMI thrombus grading > 3 or TIMI flow 0 after guidewire crossing the lesion.
