Pharmacomechanical thrombectomy with Angiojet in acute arterial occlusions: A prospective study among the results and outcomes

CONCLUSION: PMT with Angiojet is a safe and effective therapy in patients with ALI. However, patients receiving greater than 150 cycles/s were noted to have higher rates of acute kidney injury and mortality. This is likely reflective of increased thrombus burden and higher rates of hemolysis. Acute kidney injury, greater than 150 cycles/s, and COVID-19 infection were the variables with the strongest association to perioperative mortality.PMID:38429875 | DOI:10.1177/17085381241237559
