15. Conclusions  Rheolytic thrombectomy before direct IRA stenting as compared to direct IRA stenting alone is associated with a better myocardial reperfusion (higher early ST-segment resolution rate) and improved 6-month clinical outcome (lower MACCE rate).  The results of the JETSTENT trial support the routine use of rheolytic thrombectomy in STEMI patients with evidence of thrombus.
