Atypical NSTEMI culprit lesions
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focusing on atypical NSTEMI culprit lesions, this session examines rare presentations such as calcific emboli, coronary anomalies, and unusual routes to revascularisation. It provides clinical insights into diagnosing and managing uncommon acute coronary syndromes effectively.
Clinical decision making for CTO PCI strategy
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session explores clinical decision-making in CTO PCI strategy through complex scenarios including multivessel CTO in ischemic cardiomyopathy, high-risk NSTEMI post-vein graft failure, and challenges in elderly patients. It emphasizes strategic planning and individualized approaches to optimize outcomes.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection management with intracoronary imaging
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Explore the nuanced management of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) with a focus on intracoronary imaging. This session examines diagnostic challenges, the limited role of coronary CT angiography, and strategies for managing occlusive SCAD cases, highlighting the evolving understanding of this complex condition.
Diversity in coronary artery disease treatment
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focusing on the diversity in coronary artery disease treatment, this session highlights challenges ranging from maintaining interventional cardiology services during conflict to the influence of comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes mellitus on prognosis and risk assessment. It also presents clinical outcomes related to stent thrombosis...
Left main PCI-complex procedures
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session covers complex left main coronary artery PCI procedures that challenge standard algorithms. It includes tackling chronic total occlusions of the left main, managing spontaneous coronary artery dissection in patients on ECMO, handling stent dislodgement, and addressing complex trifurcation lesions, providing comprehensive insights into advanced...
Calcified lesions: when one dedicated device is not enough
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session highlights the need for multiple dedicated devices in the treatment of calcified coronary lesions. It discusses combined orbital and rotational atherectomy techniques, debulking in complex high-risk patients, and the integration of atherectomy with intravascular lithotripsy systems. Emphasis is placed on physiology and imaging-guided approaches...
Innovative strategies in STEMI management
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session presents innovative strategies in STEMI management, including the treatment of acute saphenous vein graft occlusion, primary PCI via the left internal mammary artery, and a two-step lesion debulking approach. It also covers hybrid drug-coated balloon strategies in complex multivessel disease and the emerging role...
Challenging cases in calcified lesions PCI
22 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session addresses challenging cases in PCI of heavily calcified lesions. It covers unexpected complications such as silent shockwave failures, interventions in calcified Kawasaki disease, delayed coronary obstructions post-TAVI, and complex left main bifurcation lesions. The session underscores the perseverance required to successfully navigate these demanding...
A randomised, multicenter, non-inferiority comparison of intravascular lithotripsy and super-high-pressure non-compliant balloons for treatment of calcified and refractory coronary lesions - The VICTORY trial
27 Oct 2025

30 years of primary PCI – a tale of perseverance
16 May 2023
Over the last 30 years, primary PCI (pPCI) has evolved from an experimental ‘rescue’ intervention to an essential routine procedure – performed daily in cathlabs around the world – which is responsible for saving millions of lives. However, its path to success was far from smooth.
BRIGHT-4 – Bivalirudin plus a high-dose infusion versus heparin monotherapy in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention: a randomised trial
07 Nov 2022
Nicola Ryan provides her take on the BRIGHT-4 study, which was presented during AHA 2022 in Chicago, & simultaneously published in the Lancet.
This study was a randomised control trial designed to assess if bivalirudin plus a high dose infusion for 2-4 hours post PPCI was superior to unfractionated...
