Technical consideration for left main bifurcation in light of evidence
16 Dec 2021 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2021
Watch this session to get proved that provisional side-branch stenting is recommended for the majority of bifurcation lesions, including the LM, that DK-Crush appears to be the best two-stent technique for important SB with complex stenoses, and that imaging and physiology can optimize stenting strategy decision...

Complications: cases of wire entrapment, stent dislodgement, an entangled Impella device and more
16 Dec 2021 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2021
Watch this session to learn how to face various complications, thanks to a selection of cases presented at GulfPCR-GIM 2021: a wire entrapment, a guide-wire fracture, a dissection and a loss of flow, a stent dislodgement, as well as an entangled Impella device.

STEMI and cardiogenic shock
16 Dec 2021 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2021
Thanks to the 3 presentations proposed in this session, review SCAI classification of cardiogenic shock and appraise the role of MCS in the management of STEMI with cardiogenic shock in the cathlatb.

Approach to calcified lesions and role of plaque modification and intravascular imaging to obtain optimal PCI - Session with LIVE case
15 Dec 2021 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2021
Watch the case of a 55-year-old male patient who is a diabetic on insulin and hypotensive, who initially presented with NSTEMI and 3-vessel disease but declined CABG before being readmitted with unstable angina.

How to optimise PCI in a patient with multivessel disease? LIVE Case
19 Dec 2019 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2019
Watch this case of an 81-year-old female with no prior history of CAD who presented with unstable angina. The patient had recent acute coronary syndrome and baseline angiography shows multivessel disease.
The objectives of this case are:
- Assess your patient as a whole package!
- Lesion preparation is key for...

Novel approach in the management of severely calcified lesions
19 Dec 2019 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2019
Consult this session dedicated to the Diamondback 360 coronary orbital atherectomy system to learn more about how this tool optimise the outcomes for coronary lesion preparation, how orbital atherectomy may fit into your daily practice, and what is the "must have" tool box for calcified coronary lesions.
