Mitral interventions: procedural risk assessment and interventions
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focused on mitral valve interventions, this session covers procedural risk assessment and outcomes following transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER). Topics include predictive risk scores, technical complexity, pulmonary artery pressure indices, right ventricle-pulmonary artery coupling, and novel imaging predictors influencing procedural success and patient prognosis.
Haemodynamic support: from shock to complex high-risk interventional problems
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session examines haemodynamic support from cardiogenic shock through to complex high-risk interventional cardiology procedures. It features registry data, clinical outcomes, and procedural techniques including mechanical circulatory support and arterial access strategies.
Left main PCI, what is known and what is new
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session examines both established knowledge and novel advances in left main PCI. Topics include the use of novel stents and laser atherectomy in calcified lesions, the prognostic impact of cardiac motion during bifurcation PCI, effects of left ventricular dysfunction, and sex-specific survival outcomes, as well...
Modern risk prediction in TAVI
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session examines modern risk prediction models in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). It presents novel scoring systems, the prognostic significance of cardiac damage extent and progression, and the impact of multivalvular disease, enhancing patient stratification and outcome prediction.
PCI of calcified distal left main stenosis - LIVE case
19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
A 54‑year‑old man with hypertension, smoking, dyslipidemia, and a history of PCI to the OM and diagonal branches in 2004 presented with a significant calcified LM–LAD stenosis.
The proximal LAD lesion was prepared with IVL followed by implantation of a 3.5 × 28 mm stent. The left...
Combined mitral repair and LAA closure with two separate septal punctures - LIVE case
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
A 79‑year‑old man with hypertension, a history of basal cell carcinoma and psoriasis, presented with symptomatic severe primary MR (flail P2 due to ruptured chordae) and bleeding complications (recurrent skin bleeding) while on DOAC therapy for permanent atrial fibrillation.
Two G5 MitraClip devices were implanted. Subsequently, through...
AIMI-HF trial - Ischemia and viability imaging in heart failure: The alternative imaging modalities in ischemic heart failure trial
05 Mar 2023
Nicola Ryan provides her take on this clinical trial presented by Lisa Mielniczuk at the American College of Cardiology Scientific Session (ACC.23/WCC) – note this analysis is based upon the presented slides alone.

Does metallic stent ablation by rotational atherectomy influence on the coronary microcirculation?
09 Jul 2019
An 80-year-old man underwent percutaneous coronary intervention with a bare-metal stent for severe stenosis at proximal left anterior descending coronary artery 13 years ago. In-stent restenosis was treated by a drug-eluting stent 1 year later...

Everolimus-eluting stents or bypass surgery for mutivessel coronary artery disease: 10-year outcomes of multicenter randomized controlled BEST trial
20 Sep 2022
Nicola Ryan provides her take on the BEST trial which was presented by Jung-Min Ahn at TCT 2022.
It is a randomised, multicentre, non-inferiority trial comparing PCI with second-generation everolimus-eluting stents and CABG in patients with non-left main multivessel coronary artery disease. At two-year follow-up PCI was shown...
