1 Polish-Italian-Hungarian Randomized ThrombEctomy Trial PIHRATE Trial On behalf PIHRATE investigators Dariusz Dudek MD, PhD Institute of Cardiology, Krakow, Poland

2 Impact of distal embolization Distal embolization occurs in 15% patients after PCI Henriques et al. EHJ 2002;23:1112-7

3 Aim: Primary percutaneous coronary intervention efficacy improvement by DIVER CE thrombectomy system leading to thrombus reduction. Study design: Multicenter, prospective, non-blinded, randomized. Primary endpoint: ST resolution >70% 60 minutes after PCI.

4 Secondary endpoints Thrombectomy system efficacy: passing trough lesion with thrombus reduction followed by direct stenting ctfc: corrected TIMI frame count MBG 3: myocardial blush grade STR>70% immediately after PCI Rate of composite angiographic adverse events including: distal embolisation, transient no-reflow or slow flow, final TIMI <3, need of bail out GpIIb/IIIa inhibitors or adenosine or nitroprosside Major adverse cardiac events (MACE): cardiac death, remi, repci/cabg CMR: measurement of left ventricular end-diastolic volume and end-systolic volume, ejection fraction, infarct size

6 Sample size calculation For primary endpoint assuming that patients from thrombectomy group will achieve >70% ST segment resolution 60 minutes after PCI in 65% and patient from control group achieve in 40%. For 80% test power and statistical significance level 0.05 to demonstrate such difference 70 patients in every group is needed. Due to some ECG which will not fulfill analysis criteria and to strength findings study groups will be enlarged to 100 patients per group.

19 Conclusions In patients with STEMI with occluded infarct related artery simple thrombectomy and direct stenting provides better myocardial reperfusion than standard balloon predilatation followed by stent implantation. Aspiration thrombectomy and direct stenting is easy. safe and effective in STEMI patient with early presentation.
