AngioJet technology review
CFD analysis – mechanical vs aspiration
OCT – aspiration vs mechanical thrombectomy
Practice guidelines and devices
Is a Class 1 , Level A guideline attainable?
• Challenging the Class one distinction?
• TAPAS
Bias between treatment arms
• AiMI – AngioJet in Myocardial Infarction
Mortality endpoint
TIMI 3 flow baseline imbalance between
treatment arms
TAPAS – New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM)
TAPAS – NEJM
Conclusion
Thrombus aspiration is applicable in a large
majority of patients with myocardial infarction
with ST-segment elevation, and it results in
better reperfusion and clinical outcomes than
conventional PCI, irrespective of clinical and
angiographic characteristics at baseline.

• Dr. Vetrovec editorial
NEJM – technique editorial
• Dr. Vetrovec summarized
• Some operators believe that direct stenting without
multiple balloon inflations reduces the risk of distal emboli.
• The majority of patients in the conventional-PCI group had balloon
angioplasty followed by stenting, which might have increased the
relative incidence of embolization in the conventional-PCI group.

AiMI Control Arm Mortality is Far Lower than
in the Meta-Analysis PCI Arm
There is extremely low, p=0.0007,
chance that a new PCI trial would
observe mortality of 0.8% or less
AiMI PCI Arm is an outlier, extreme
observation, or in the tail, as compared
to the body of PCI evidence
