Latest on TAVI in complex bicuspid lesions
17 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023
The bicuspid aortic valve is a real challenge in terms of diagnosis and treatment of patients, as discussed by Didier Tchétché and Raj Makkar in this interview.
Given that there are different phenotypes and patterns of calcification, some patients should indeed not be treated by TAVI: find out...

Should we perform revascularisation in patients with depressed left ventricle ejection fraction?
17 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023
Divaka Perera, main author of the REVIVED study, discusses the results of this trial with Flavio Ribichini.

What is the best contemporary interventional management of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest?
17 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023
Thomas Keeble and Marko Noc tackle the tricky question of how to deal with a patient with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
