Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients (men or women) at least 18 years of age
  • STEMI: Presenting with ischemic chest discomfort \> 20 minutes and \<6 hours of duration suggestive of acute myocardial infarction AND ST elevation \> 1 mm (\> 0.1 mV) in two contiguous limb leads OR \> 2 mm (\> 0.2 mV) in two contiguous precordial leads
  • Must have signed the informed consent form prior to performance of study-related procedures
  • Native dominant and proximal culprit vessel 2.5 mm in diameter
  • Angiographically identifiable thrombus (presence of a filling defect within the coronary lumen surrounded by contrast medium observed in multiple projections, without calcium within the filling defect, or persistence of contrast medium within the coronary lumen)
  • Pre-PCI Thrombus score (TS) ≥ 2 (angiographically apparent thrombus that is \> ½ the vessel diameter)
  • Pre-PCI TIMI flow grade of 0-2

Exclusion

  • Previous PCI of the IRA
  • Previous myocardial infarction or coronary artery bypass grafting
  • Cardiogenic shock
  • Three vessel disease
  • Left main disease
  • Severe valvular heart disease
  • Rescue PCI (PCI following fibrinolytic administration)
  • Facilitated PCI (PCI following fibrinolytic or GP IIb/IIIa inhibition)
  • Contraindication to GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors such as excess bleeding risk or thrombocytopenia
  • Current participation in another investigational trial
  • Exclusion criteria for the MRI imaging include implanted pacemakers, defibrillators, or metallic intracranial implants, severe claustrophobia, BMI \> 35 kg/m², atrial fibrillation or known not well controlled extrasystoles (bad images), or allergy to gadolinium-DTPA
  • Enrolment of patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate \< 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 should be carefully evaluated considering the gadolinium chelate-associated risk of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis
