Hemodynamic support during CTO PCI: to use it or not?

Session comprising selected EuroPCR 2024 Clinical Case submissions

Summary

This session features selected EuroPCR 2024 Clinical Case submissions focused on the use of hemodynamic support devices during percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) for chronic total occlusions (CTO). Experts will present and discuss challenging cases where the use of devices like the Impella pump or pulsatile left ventricular assist devices were employed to manage complex CTO scenarios. Attendees will gain insights into the appropriate selection and application of hemodynamic support in these high-risk procedures.

Presentations available when logged in:

  • Sheathless use of pulsatile percutaneous left ventricular assist device
  • Double CTO revascularisation with Impella CP support
  • Not just an ordinary CTO case
  • When the left main isn't protective
  • Deal with all issues at once if you can and dare
  • Follow the hybrid but beware the rendez vous with the devil
  • Double jeopardy in time crisis
  • Shut the back door
