Other coronary interventions

In this large single centre registry investigators demonstrated that with the exception of endothelium independent epicardial coronary artery dysfunction, CVDys diagnosed by interventional functional assessment is correlated with adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events.

How should this 74-year-old woman with HTN, DM, LVEF 45 %, inferior hypokinesia, and no valvular disorders be managed after presenting with a subacute inferior STEMI of less than 24 hours? Before uncovering the authors' approach, provide your analysis!

Ali Nazmi Calik provides his take on the results of the PREVENT trial presented at ACC.24 in Atlanta.

Aaysha Cader interviews Rasha Al-Lamee and Michael Foley about the results of the ORBITA-COSMIC trial presented at ACC.24 in Atlanta.

Results showed that coronary sinus reducer relieved angina symptoms but lacked evidence of increased blood flow to the heart. While beneficial for refractory angina patients, its mechanism remains...

This sub-analysis denotes that medically treated diabetic patients with FFR-negative, TCFA-carrying target lesions were associated with a higher rate event rate compared to angiographically similar ischemic target lesions that underwent revascularization.

Find out how, based on an initial clinical situation, the scientific evidence gathered between January and December on the key subjects selected for 2023, focusing on coronary issues, might have had an impact on daily practice, or is encouraging changes in practice, from MVD in ACS...

Step-by-step video on how to successfully manage a universal radial diagnostic catheter induced coronary dissection.

Complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedures are dramatically increasing in daily practice. Calcified coronary artery lesions and hostile cardiac anatomy may increase the risk of device dislodgment and/or malposition. In such situations, the use of a snare catheter is pivotal to retrieve and/or reposition the device.

Watch this session to learn all about the intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) mechanism for treating calcified lesions. Discover practical advice and techniques for implementing IVL in challenging calcified lesions and the safe utilization of IVL in left main bifurcations.

Explore this session to gain insights into reducing operator reliance on contrast in PCI for enhanced safety and quality, particularly in complex scenarios. Discover essential tips, tricks, and specialized tools tailored for ultra-low-contrast PCI. Additionally, immerse yourself in a practical, step-by-step example through a recorded ultra-low-contrast...
