Hybrid procedure: Stent and DCB for a long diffuse lesion - LIVE case
05 Oct 2024 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2024
A 40-year-old male with no comorbidities presented an NSTEMI. The angiography showed a focus lesion on the mid-CX and a diffuse lesion on the mid and distal LAD. The LAD FFR are 0.49 with a diffuse pullback gradient.
After Stent in mid-CX guided by OCT, the operators...
Drug-coated balloons in de novo coronary artery disease
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session, in collaboration with various cardiology societies, focuses on the use of drug-coated balloons (DCBs) in the treatment of de novo coronary artery disease. It covers the optimal technique for PCI with DCBs, the indications and use of DCBs in small vessels, bifurcations, and multivessel...
Myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock - Challenging cases
16 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023
Cardiogenic shock is a complication that occurs in 5 to 10 % of MIs, and mortality remains very high. Although early revascularisation can save lives, inotropes still have their limitations, and data on the impact of mechanical circulatory assistance is limited. Watch this session to find...
Treatment strategies for calcified left main stenosis
17 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023
Experience the complex nuances of managing calcified left main stenosis in this case series, digging into the innovative interventions and evidence-based techniques that hold the key to overcoming this challenging clinical scenario.
PCI with drug eluting balloons
17 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023
Consult this compilation of difficult cases experienced by your colleagues, providing helpful and practical information on drug-eluting balloon strategies in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Watch commented slides and learn about the diverse medical histories, approaches and treatment tailored to the complexity of each individual case.
Treatment of small vessel disease - To stent or not to stent?
07 Oct 2022 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2022
Consult this session if you want to learn the tips and tricks to perform a small vessel disease intervention and to discuss the pros and cons of treating small vessel disease with DCB and/or DES.
Treatment of calcified lesions
07 Oct 2022 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2022
Consider a 66-year-old man, hypertensive and diabetic for 10 years, with history of recurrent substernal chest pain and exertional dyspnea, who presented with easy fatigability and shortness of breath, or a 72-year-old man on dialysis who presented with STEMI and severe calcified stenosis of LAD/DI bifurcation,...
Dealing with complex and high-risk interventions
18 May 2022 – From EuroPCR 2022
Thanks to these seven clinical cases, you will be able to learn how to manage risky and complex interventions, including a case of complex triple bifurcation lesions, a high-risk PCI case and a successful kissing balloon technique in transradial PCI.
Using physiology to determine coronary intervention in Stable Coronary Artery Disease – FFR, iFR and QFR
06 Jan 2020 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2020
Consult this session to learn more about the role of FFR in stable coronary artery disease intervention, the common pitfalls and tips & tricks in performing FFR measurement, as well as the emerging role of QFR in assessing the significance of intermediate stenosis.
