Summary

This study looks at whether removing blood clots from heart arteries during a procedure called angioplasty can improve recovery in people who have had a major heart attack. About 3500 patients who first received clot-busting drugs will be randomly assigned to get either standard angioplasty or angioplasty plus clot removal. The main goal is to see if clot removal reduces the risk of death, another heart attack, stroke, or heart failure within 30 days.
