19 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Discover new solutions addressing persistent cardiovascular challenges, including novel diagnostic systems, vascular closure devices, specialized transcatheter closure technologies, and innovative stent-graft systems.
Advances in the development of drug-coated balloon
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Join Florim Cuculi and Rony Mathew at this EuroPCR 2025 roundtable to assess the evolution of drug-coated balloons (DCBs) and their role in daily practice.
DCBs offer a compelling alternative to stent implantation in selected cases. However, they are not interchangeable—each is built using different drugs, carriers,...
Major EuroPCR 2025 LBT - 4D-ACS: one-month DAPT followed by dose reduction of prasugrel after drug-coated stent insertion in acute coronary syndrome
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
In this EuroPCR 2025 interview, Davide Capodanno and Woong Chol Kang discuss antithrombotic therapy in patients with acute coronary syndromes, focusing on the design and outcomes of the 4D-ACS trial. They describe the patient population enrolled in the study and introduce the two de-escalation strategies investigated:...
What are the essentials of the provisional strategy for non-left main true bifurcation lesions?
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Giuseppe Di Gioia and Jens Flensted Lassen explore the essentials of the provisional stenting strategy for non-left main true bifurcation lesions. This stepwise approach offers simplicity while preserving flexibility: start with one stent in the main vessel, and keep the option open for a second if...
