Summary

Consult this session to learn through various clinical cases all about PCI complications in acute STEMI, and how to cope with them: massive thrombosis in right coronary artery, left main subocclusion and cardiogenic shock, bypass dysfunction, and more!

Learning Objectives

  • To learn about potential procedural obstacles in acute STEMI patients
  • To acquire a knowledge of unusual clinical scenarios in STEMI that might lead to adverse PCI outcomes
  • To reflect on optimal PCI strategy in STEMI in order to minimise complications
