Transcaval versus transaxillary TAVR in contemporary practice - a propensity-weighted analysis
09 May 2022
As there has been no systematic comparison of transcaval and transaxillary access so far, the present study aimed to compare these two approaches with each other, as well as with transfemoral access.

Effect of wire jailing at side branch in 1-stent strategy for coronary bifurcation lesions
06 May 2022
This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of jailing a wire in the side branch of a bifurcation lesion to prevent side branch compromise during provisional main vessel stenting when a one-stent in bifurcation PCI technique is adopted.

Femoral or radial approach in treatment of coronary chronic total occlusion: A randomized clinical trial
27 Apr 2022
Access remains an increasingly discussed issue in the interventional community globally. In this FORT CTO trial, the authors reported no difference in procedural success in TRA vs TFA, among CTO patients.

Long-term clinical impact of contrast-associated acute kidney injury following PCI: an ADAPT-DES sub-study
21 Apr 2022
The recently published ADAPT-DES sub-study addressed the question of early and long-term impact of contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) on net adverse clinical events. In addition, the authors defined risk factors for the development of CA-AKI in all-comers using contemporary PCI techniques.

EROSION III: a multicenter RCT of OCT-guided reperfusion in STEMI with early infarct artery patency
19 Apr 2022
This is an interesting study showing that in patients with STEMI with early infarct artery patency, OCT guidance compared with angiographic guidance of reperfusion was associated with less stent implantation during primary PCI.

Short-term postoperative use of Rivaroxaban to prevent radial artery occlusion after transradial coronary procedure: the RESTORE randomized trial
14 Apr 2022
The RESTORE trial aimed to evaluate the clinical value of short-term postoperative anticoagulation with Rivaroxaban 10 mg daily for 7 days as compared with placebo, in reducing RAO at 24 hours and 30 days.

Randomized clinical trial on prevention of radial occlusion after transradial access using nitroglycerin: PATENS Trial
13 Apr 2022
The aim of the current study was to evaluate whether administration of nitroglycerin at the beginning or end of a trans-radial approach procedure would preserve radial artery patency.

Coronary lithotripsy for the treatment of underexpanded stents: the international multicentre CRUNCH registry
11 Apr 2022
CRUNCH registry aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of intravascular lithotripsy in the setting of resistant stent under expansion due to underlying calcific plaques.
