ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the prognestic effect of thrombus aspiration combined tirofiban in patients of acute myocardial infarction. Methods 372 patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction were randomly divided into the observation group (n=183) and the control group (n=189). Patients in the observation group received thrombus aspiration combined tirofiban additional to conventional treatment, and cases in the control group received routine treatment. The curative effect, postoperative complications and adverse reactions were compared between the 2 groups. Results The postoperative TIMI classⅢperfusion was achieved in 152 cases (83.1%) in the observation group and 140 cases (74.1%) in the control group (P 0.05). MACE reorded within 30 d post operation was 10 cases(5.5%) in the observation group and 22 cases (11.6%) in the control group (P < 0.05). No thrombocytopenia recorded in both groups. Conclusions Thrombus aspiration combined tirofiban for patients with acute myocardial infarction during PCI can improve the postoperative coronary artery perfusion, left ventricular ejection function and reduce the incidence of MACE within 30 days.
