A pilot study with a new, rapid‐exchange, thrombus‐aspirating device in patients with thrombus‐containing lesions: The Diver C.E. study

Abstract

This new, easy-to-use, device is able to reduce thrombus burden and to improve coronary flow in patients with thrombus-containing lesions. The improvement in myocardial perfusion associated to greater thrombus removal highlights the importance of thrombus aspiration in the management of thrombus-burdened coronary lesions.
