Rescue techniques for coronary interventions
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session presents an array of advanced rescue techniques employed in coronary interventions when unexpected complications arise. It features real-world cases including management of complex coronary artery aneurysms, malignant pericardial tamponade, challenging primary PCI scenarios, and innovative bailout strategies such as self-made covered stents and guidewire...
Management of a patient with complex multivessel disease involving bifurcations
19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Complex multivessel coronary disease involving bifurcations requires careful procedural planning, imaging guidance and tailored stent strategies.
This EuroPCR 2026 session combines live educational case with insights from the NAGOMI COMPLEX study to explore contemporary approaches to complex PCI. A key focus is placed on the role of...
Risk stratification and drug therapies in coronary arteries interventions
19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session offers a detailed examination of risk stratification and pharmacologic therapies in coronary artery interventions. It features innovative markers such as left ventricle filling pressure (E/E' ratio) for predicting myocardial injury, clinical outcome impacts in dialysis-dependent patients, intraoperative DOAC removal during CABG, and machine learning...
Redefining complex PCI: impact of real-world data and novel evidence on IV antithrombotic strategies
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Explore how real-world data and evolving evidence are reshaping IV antithrombotic strategies in complex PCI. This EuroPCR 2025 session brings together urgent clinical cases—including STEMI patients in shock—and highlights key insights from the SMILE registry. Learn how transition protocols from cangrelor to oral P2Y12 inhibitors are...
Stent failure and intravascular imaging: shedding the light to improve outcomes
20 May 2022 – From EuroPCR 2022
Understand how to use intravascular imaging to analyse the reasons for stent failure (restenosis and/or thrombosis) by viewing these 2 cases shared by your peers: 1 focusing on OCT & the other on IVUS.
Clinical applications of IVUS, OCT and other intracoronary imaging techniques: practical simulation-based learning (Part 2)
19 May 2021 – From EuroPCR 2021
Often, angiography is not enough, and imaging can be very useful. In this session, originally presented during EuroPCR 2021, our experts use clinical cases to demonstrate that in all circumstances (ostial LAD, stent failure, bifurcation, calcified lesion, ACS...), imaging is quite simple to analyze and particularly...
How to prevent and manage coronary perforation?
19 May 2021 – From EuroPCR 2021
Watch this session if you want to learn about the different types of coronary perforation, to discuss how to predict which situations and coronary anatomies are particularly at risk of coronary perforation, and to share practical tips for rapid and effective management of coronary perforation.
This session...
Clinical applications of IVUS, OCT and other intracoronary imaging techniques: practical simulation-based learning (Part 1)
19 May 2021 – From EuroPCR 2021
The aim of this session, originally presented during EuroPCR 2021, is to demonstrate how intra-coronary imaging can improve outcomes, to help understand appropriate indications for its use, and to provide practical tips & tricks on how to integrate intra-coronary imaging into daily clinical practice through a...
How to prevent and manage stent loss?
18 May 2021 – From EuroPCR 2021
Watch this session if you want to learn about the different types of stent loss, to discuss how to predict which situations and coronary anatomies are particularly at risk of certain stent loss and to share practical tips for rapid and effective management of stent loss.
