High-speed rotational atherectomy versus modified balloons for plaque preparation of severely calcified coronary lesions: two-year outcomes of the randomised PREPARE-CALC trial
17 Jan 2023
The PREPARE-CALC trial was the first trial that compared lesion preparation using rotational atherectomy (RA) prior to sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) implantation with modified balloons (MB; cutting or scoring) in patients presenting with chronic coronary syndromes.
