Identification and Management Strategies for Intracoronary High Thrombus Burden in Patients With STEMI: A Practical Experience and Literature Review by Xing Feng, Tongku Liu

“…Treating STEMI patients with high thrombus burden is a challenging problem in the field of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). During the PCI procedure, the thrombus may be squeezed and dislodged, leading to a distal embolism in the infarction-related artery (IRA), resulting in slow blood flow (slow flow) or no blood flow (no reflow), which can enlarge the ischemic necrosis area of myocardial infarction, aggravate myocardial damage, endanger the life of the patient, and lead to PCI failure. …”
