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…

What is the optimal management of patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricle dysfunction in 2024?

15 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024

Check out this EuroPCR 2024 interview between Valeria Paradies and Vasileios Panoulas to learn about CAD patients with LV dysfunction. Gain insights from the REVIVED trial, which shows that very stable, asymptomatic patients can be treated with medical therapy, including the four pillars of heart failure...

PCI for in-stent restenosis complicated by neoatherosclerosis dissection

30 Apr 2024

Did you know that neoatherosclerosis (in the context of in-stent restenosis (ISR)) can suffer dissection, just like any native coronary artery, when balloon dilatation is performed?

Ticagrelor vs Clopidogrel for complex percutaneous coronary intervention in chronic coronary syndrome

15 Mar 2024

The results of this sub-analysis of the ALPHEUS trial show that complex PCI criteria are present in a large percentage of patients with chronic coronary syndrome and are associated with higher rates of both periprocedural events and MACE than non-complex PCI.

TAVI for patients with concomitant coronary artery disease - LIVE case

17 Feb 2024 – From PCR Tokyo Valves 2024

An 88-year-old male presented a severe symptomatic aortic valve with preserved LV function (64%), a coronary artery disease with a LAD PCI a few years ago and a significant (75%) RCA stenosis with an FFR angio at 0.74. He also has a short membrane septum (2.5...

Coronary physiology guidance vs conventional angiography for optimization of percutaneous coronary intervention: the AQVA-II Trial

24 Jan 2024

The primary aim of this study was to demonstrate the superiority of physiology-guided PCI, using either angiography or microcatheter-derived FFR, over conventional angiography-based PCI in complex high-risk indicated procedures (CHIPs) in obtaining a higher FFR post-PCI.

07 Dec 2023 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2023

The continuation of this session focuses on complications that may occur during PCI in the cathlab. Through the lens of these cases, be prepared about what type of complications one might face during PCI, and get updates on the latest guidelines and tools developed for emergencies.

Tailored approaches to complex bifurcation PCI: part 2

07 Dec 2023 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2023

Consult this session to discover various complex PCI bifurcation cases, and learn more about the step by step approach on how to treat an ostial LAD lesion, and relevant procedures, such as the cutting balloon angioplasty, CABG or the trifurctional intervention.
