Superior patient outcomes with bioresorbable technologies
04 Jul 2019 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2019
Consult this session to discover a selection of studies demonstrating superior patient outcomes with bioresorbable technologies, and discover which DES you should use and how ultrathin strut DES differs from the others.
Challenging cases
04 Jul 2019 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2019
Consult this session to discover challenging cases and their management: cardioembolic AMI in a post-MVR patient, anomalous left coronary artery origin from pulmonary artery in an asymptomatic adult, PCI in a patient with platelet function disorder, and more!
Do ultrathin stents improve outcomes?
Do newer generation drug-eluting stents with ultrathin struts improve clinical outcomes for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)? Join Ashwin Mehta, Upendra Kaul and Anirban Choudhary in a discussion about the TALENT non-inferiority trial, which compared PCI using the Supraflex sirolimus-eluting stent with ultrathin struts with...
Hope for improved PCI outcomes in diabetic patients with the Abluminus stent
Although huge progress has been made over the last four decades in percutaneous coronary intervention, the results in diabetic patients are still suboptimal, with higher rates of restenosis, target lesion revascularisation, vessel failures and mortality. Luca Testa, Roxana Mehran and Ashok Seth discuss the problems that...
Sirolimus-eluting DCB: update from the Eastbourne study
In this short video, Bernado Cortese (Italy) describes the interim analysis of the Eastbourne study, which is evaluating the performance of a sirolimus-eluting DCB for the treatment of any type of coronary lesion, including native vessel disease and in-stent restenosis. The Eastbourne registry is enrolling patients...
Left main bifurcation stenting: a case-based approach
Are left main bifurcations different from other bifurcations? And is one stent better than two? Find out as Goran Stankovic, David Hildick-Smith and Francesco Burzotta discuss the recommendations of the latest consensus document from the European Bifurcation Club (EBC) dedicated to left main percutaneous coronary intervention...
How to manage PCI in patients treated with oral anticoagulants
PCROnline Editor Davide Capodanno raises the hot topic of how to manage antithrombotic therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation who need dual antiplatelet therapy. He asks Dominick Angiolillo from the USA for practical advice about which anticoagulants and P2Y12 inhibitors to use, and the most difficult...
Have you ever seen that before? Rare cases and complications
24 May 2019 – From EuroPCR 2019
Consult this session to discover uncommon clinical cases on left main and multivessel disease and stents and scaffolds, such as stenting for left main artery spasm related cardiac arrest, circumflex milking effect from pericardial constriction, and more!
