In fact, thrombus aspiration is not a novel treatment method, and its popularization time was even earlier than the comprehensive popularization of the heart.
The principle of thrombus aspiration is actually as simple as its name: a catheter containing thrombolytic drugs is passed into the affected part of the thrombus, the drug is first used to loosen the thrombus, and then sucked out to achieve the treatment of cardiovascular diseases the goal of.
Aspirating thrombus is like "cleaning blood vessels", so many friends will think that thrombus aspiration can completely treat cardiovascular diseases.
But this is not the case. The main cause of thrombus formation is the accumulation of inflammation caused by vascular damage, or the blood itself is too viscous, so the risk of plaque formation is high. Although thrombus aspiration can effectively remove existing thrombus, but The probability of subsequent thrombosis is still high.
Therefore, thrombus aspiration cannot completely treat cardiovascular diseases. After aspiration, it is still necessary to improve blood quality and vascular health through drug intervention and life adjustments to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease recurrence.
However, thrombus aspiration is to directly remove the thrombus. Compared with the heart stent that only "stretches" the blood vessel, it still has more advantages in the eyes of many people. Therefore, it is believed that the thrombus aspiration can completely replace the heart stent Is it plausible to say that it has become a more suitable cardiovascular treatment method?
