In this episode, Dr. Roopa Salwan and Dr. Sidney Lo explore the evolving role of thrombectomy in managing STEMI, as new-generation devices and refined techniques breathe life into a strategy once sidelined by major trials. They revisit the journey from early tools like AngioJet to advanced systems like Penumbra, now delivering continuous suction with greater precision and safety. With rising thrombus burdens in late-presenting patients, particularly in regions like India, the conversation stresses flow as the ultimate therapeutic goal—often more valuable than immediate stenting. From microcirculation insights to practical tips for young interventionists, this dialogue blends clinical wisdom with innovation. Tune in for a deep dive into how technique, timing, and technology are reshaping thrombus management.
