An emergency system for the treatment of a patient (20) experiencing an acute thrombotic vascular occlusion, comprising a non-invasive, vibration device (10), in conjunction with pharmacological agents, for disrupting and lysing thrombosis, relieving spasm (if associated), and thereby restoring blood perfusion. The vibration device (10) is operable to deliver vibration within the 1-1000 Hz range, at a selectable displacement amplitude of 0.1-10 mm. For acute myocardial infarction cases, an operator places an attachment interface comprising a pair of contacts (12), to bridge the sternum of the patient at the fourth intercostal space. Vibration is initiated at 50 Hz (or any frequency, preferably within the 40 - 120 Hz range), and adjusts vibration to a maximal displacement amplitude deemed tolerable and safe to the patient (20), concurrently with the administration of thrombolytic agents, or any other form of medical therapy. A synergistic effect is achieved between vibration and medical agents to facilitate the disruption of thrombosis, and restore blood perfusion.
