STEMI complexities
21 Sep 2023 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2023
Dive into the world of STEMI complexities in this session, from unique cases like anterior STEMI with cardiogenic shock to unconventional approaches for triple vessel disease, and gain insights into topics like calcified left main bifurcation, mechanical causes of myocardial infarction, SCAD mysteries, and more!
Complex left main scenarios
21 Sep 2023 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2023
Discover unique insights into these challenging left main scenarios, including anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA), guide extension catheter entrapment by a coronary stent, the utility of OCT guidance in complex left main trifurcation PCI, and a rare instance of a young patient with...
Left main interventions: cutting-edge insights
21 Sep 2023 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2023
Join us in this session on left main interventions and explore the challenges and strategies for left main PCI in complex cases, from minimalist approaches in limited-resource settings to complex procedures like percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty with IVUS guidance.
STEMI complications and beyond
21 Sep 2023 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2023
Join us in this session to unravel the challenges stemming from STEMI and gain the knowledge to effectively overcome them: learn to navigate acute thrombotic situations affecting the heart, brain and limbs, discover how to handle access site issues during primary PCI and explore the role...
2023 ESC Guidelines for the management of acute coronary syndromes
30 Aug 2023
Cardiovascular disease in particular ischaemic heart disease is the leading cause of mortality worldwide. International guidelines provide recommendations on the best evidence-based care for patients. At the ESC Congress 2023 in Amsterdam, the ESC 2023 Guidelines on Acute Coronary Syndromes were presented and published1. Vijay Kunadian provides...

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...

MULTISTARS AMI: Multivessel immediate versus staged revascularization in STEMI
28 Aug 2023
Aaysha Cader interviews Barbara Elisabeth Stahli on the study design and results that she presented during the ESC Congress 2023 in Amsterdam.
Immediate multivessel PCI was non-inferior to staged multivessel PCI for reducing death and ischemic events in patients with STEMI and multivessel coronary artery disease.

ECLS-SHOCK: venoarterial membrane oxygenation in cardiogenic shock
27 Aug 2023
Panos Xaplanteris & Leonidas Koliastasis provide their take on the final results of the ECLS-SHOCK (Extracorporeal Life Support in Infarct-Related Cardiogenic Shock) which were presented by Holger Thiele during the ESC 2023 congress in Amsterdam.

FIRE trial: physiology-guided complete PCI in older MI patients
27 Aug 2023
Luis Ortega-Paz interviews Simone Biscaglia and Gianluca Campo about the FIRE trial.
Results showed elderly patients presenting with either STEMI or NSTEMI benefit from complete revascularization, reducing cardiovascular events risk at 1 year compared to culprit lesion-only PCI.
