Summary

This study tests whether removing blood clots from heart arteries during emergency treatment can improve long-term heart health. About 6,760 adults having a severe heart attack will be randomly assigned to get standard care or standard care plus clot removal. Researchers will track heart problems and heart function for one year to see if the extra step helps.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Aged ≥18 years old, diagnosed with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (chest pain plus ST-segment elevation ≥1mm or new-onset left bundle branch block \[LBBB\]) with symptom onset \< 12 hours. * Planned to undergo primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). * High thrombus burden in the target vessel (TIMI thrombus grade ≥3, or visible floating thrombus) confirmed by coronary angiography. * Reference diameter of the target vessel ≥2.75mm, with the lesion suitable for the passage of an aspiration catheter. * Provided written informed consent to participate in the study. Exclusion Criteria: * Cardiogenic shock (Killip class IV) or requiring mechanical circulatory support. * A history of previous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). * Concurrent intervention required for non-culprit vessels. * Severe bleeding tendency (e.g., INR \> 2.5, platelet count \< 50×10⁹/L). * Severe renal insufficiency (estimated glomerular filtration rate \[eGFR\] \< 30 ml/min/1.73m²). * Expected survival time \< 1 year (e.g., advanced malignant tumor).
