18. Technique for AngioJet Use and DS Single pass anterograde technique (activate AngioJet proximal to thrombus) Angiographic check after first AngioJet pass. Temporary pacemaker strongly discouraged. Balloon pre-dilation strongly discouraged. DS had to be attempted in all cases in both arms. Routine Abciximab in both arms.

19. JETSTENT TRIAL  Primary surrogate end points: Early ST-segment resolution (≥ 50% ST segment elevation reduction at 30 minutes) Infarct size (1-month 99m Tc sestamibi scintigraphy)  Clinical end points: MACE at 1, 6, and 12 months Death and Readmission for CHF at 12 months  Secondary surrogate end points: TIMI flow, cTFC, and TIMI blush

25. Conclusions  AngioJet rheolytic thrombectomy before direct IRA stenting as compared to direct stenting alone is associated with: o Better myocardial reperfusion (higher rate of early STR) o Improved 6-month clinical outcome (lower MACE rate)  The results of the JETSTENT trial support the routine use of AngioJet rheolytic thrombectomy in AMI patients with evidence of thrombus.
