A Steerable and Expandable Magnetic Aspiration Catheter for Enhanced Aspiration Thrombectomy

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article presents a novel magnetic aspiration catheter (MAC) that can be both actively steered and undergo distal‐end expansion via externally applied magnetic fields. The MAC facilitates precise branch selection and enhances clot engagement by improving endovascular navigation and aspiration efficiency. Phantom experiments validate its feasibility

Stroke thrombectomy catheter for aspiration of refractory or inaccessible clot in acute myocardial infarction

open access: yesAdvances in Interventional Cardiology, 2022
Despite inconclusive and conflicting results of trials and meta-analyses assessing aspiration thrombectomy in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), trends toward reduced mortality were observed in the high thrombus burden subgroup [1–3 ...

Is Thrombus Aspiration the Appropriate “Remedy”?

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2007
The recently published substudy of the REMEDIA (Randomized Evaluation of the Effect of Mechanical Reduction of Distal Embolization by Thrombus-Aspiration in Primary and Rescue Angioplasty) trial by Galiuto et al.

Hyperacute Interleukin‐1β Production and Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation in the Cerebral Circulation of Stroke Patients with Large Vessel Occlusion

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion is associated with rapid intravascular immune activation. Analysis of arterial blood sampled distal to the thrombus during mechanical thrombectomy revealed increased extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) levels, evidence of inflammasome priming in monocytes, and ...

Primary percutaneous coronary intervention and the role of thrombus aspiration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
After an acute hart attack, removing any clots (thrombus aspiration) is a better method than angioplasty. It reduces chances of patients dying within a year by nearly half, according to the research by Tone Svilaas.

Angiojet Thrombo-aspiration Guided by Trans-Oesophageal Ultrasound

open access: yesEJVES Short Reports, 2016
Introduction: A 59 year old woman presented with acute right leg ischemia. On the computed tomography scan, thrombi were seen in the brachiocephalic trunk, in the descending aorta, in the infrarenal aorta, in the right deep femoral artery, and in the ...

Unveiling the Microvasculature: The Index of Microcirculatory Resistance and Its Expanding Role in Cardiovascular Care

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) is a cutting‐edge, wire‐based tool that advances the capability assessment of coronary microvascular function. By utilizing distal coronary pressure and mean transit time under maximal hyperemia, IMR delivers consistent, reproducible insights into the microvasculature's dynamic health.

Effect of thrombus aspiration on angiography and outcome in patients undergoing primary coronary angioplasty

open access: yes, 2017
Thrombus exerts a major impact on the performance and outcome of primary and rescue interventions in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Although the optimal treatment of thrombotic lesions is still controversial, thrombus aspiration provides an ...

Bacterial Signatures in Thrombus Aspirates of Patients With Myocardial Infarction [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2013
Background— Infectious agents, especially bacteria and their components originating from the oral cavity or respiratory tract, have been suggested to contribute to inflammation in the coronary plaque, leading to rupture and the subsequent development of coronary thrombus.
