Stable CAD (Coronary artery disease)

Find all the latest content on stable coronary artery disease (stable CAD) published on this website.

A complex and changing disease state requiring wide expertise, stable CAD can involve a diverse range of underlying chronic or evolutionary stages involving full use of all available tools, devices and techniques like those for invasive imaging and functional assessment. Taking into account underlying comorbidities such as diabetes is critical. Advances in imaging techniques, as well as the use of adjunctive pharmacotherapy, vascular access or invasive interventions such as bypass surgery, are important, as are understanding bleeding risks, all of which can be found here…

Intravascular ultrasound vs angiography-guided drug-coated balloon angioplasty: the ULTIMATE III trial

13 Jun 2024

The results of this study show that IVUS guidance is associated with less late lumen loss compared to angiography guidance in HBR patients undergoing DCB angioplasty.

Influence of pathophysiological patterns of coronary artery disease on immediate percutaneous coronary intervention outcomes

28 May 2024

This study demonstrated, for the first time, that PPG - an index to characterize focal vs. diffuse disease - can predict optimal functional revascularization outcomes (post-PCI FFR ≥ 0.88) more accurately than FFR alone.

Migration of the stent in the left main stem due to poor lesion preparation

23 May 2024

Poor lesion preparation is an important factor contributing to serious complications in PCI of heavily calcified lesions. We present a case of a stent loss in a left main coronary artery followed by its successful retrieval.

Role of PCI in the contemporary management of patients with angina and coronary disease

17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024

This session aims to generate awareness about the distinct phenotypes of coronary artery disease (focal, diffuse, serial) that can be identified through contemporary physiological tools, and the implications of these phenotypes on achieving successful functional PCI results. Participants will also discuss the considerations around using PCI...

Management of PCI complications - Part 2

17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024

This session focuses on the management of various PCI complications, including iatrogenic dissection after diagnostic coronary angiography, sinus node artery occlusion, a stuck 6F guide in the axillary artery, and the retrieval of a broken balloon. The session features a series of case presentations and discussions,...
