DEVICE

Thrombus aspiration (Intravascular Ultrasound catheter (Boston))

"There is a single arm in the study where all patients are undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention for an acute myocardial infarction.~All patients will have an Intravascular Ultrasound three times:~1. At baseline~2. After thrombus aspiration with a thrombus extraction catheter~3. After stent deployment~We are however assessing the physiological response of patients having an acute myocardial infarction and this is not a test of the devices as such."
