Focal or diffuse coronary disease: how can PPG measurement contribute to clinical decision-making?
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
How can physiology guide treatment decisions beyond ischemia detection? In this round-table recorded at EuroPCR 2025, Thomas Engstrøm, Carlos Collet and Jeroen Sonck examine how pullback pressure gradient (PPG) makes it possible to identify the distribution pattern of coronary artery disease—focal or diffuse—based on a continuous...
Tricuspid TEER: learnings from the 2-year outcomes of TRILUMINATE Pivotal trial & bRIGHT study
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
At EuroPCR 2025, Marianna Adamo and Ralph Stephan von Bardeleben discussed the latest findings on tricuspid valve repair using transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER).
The 2-year results from the TRILUMINATE Pivotal trial showed a significant reduction in tricuspid regurgitation, lasting improvements in quality of life, and a notable...
Duration of DAPT in ACS: The DUAL-ACS Trial
31 Aug 2025
Ali Nazmi Calik interviews David Newby on the landmark DUAL-ACS trial results he presented at ESC Congress 2025 in Madrid.
The trial compared 3 months versus 12 months of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after myocardial infarction in an all-comer population. Findings suggest that shorter therapy may offer better...

How to manage coronary artery disease in TAVI candidates?
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Martine Gilard, Antonio Mangieri, and Marco Barbanti explore the strategy for handling coronary artery disease in patients undergoing TAVI. Is coronary angiography always required beforehand? Should PCI be performed in all cases—and if so, when? This exchange offers key insights to help guide your decisions on...
What are the fundamentals of an upfront two-stent strategy for bifurcation PCI?
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Nicola Ryan explores the fundamentals of an upfront two-stent strategy in bifurcation PCI with Dejan Milasinovic. When the side branch shows significant, high-grade stenosis or extensive disease, direct treatment - via POBA, DCB, or a second stent - may be preferred. Anatomy guides the decision between...
How to efficiently and safely manage calcified left main disease?
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Nicola Ryan and Flavio Ribichini explore the complexities of calcified left main stem disease, emphasizing the critical role of intracoronary imaging in improving patient outcomes. They discuss the practical use of mechanical circulatory support and debate stenting strategies, offering expert insights on when single or dual...
What are the essential aspects of transcatheter LAA closure?
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Ole De Backer and Philippe Garot discuss the rapid evolution of transcatheter left atrial appendage (LAA) occlusion.
They begin by contrasting patient selection in Europe and the US, where approaches diverge significantly: in Europe, very high bleeding risk remains the main criterion, while in the US, LAA...
Are we undertreating aortic regurgitation?
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
At EuroPCR 2025, Victoria Delgado, Helge Möllmann, and Dan Blackman gather to discuss a crucial but often under-addressed challenge in structural heart disease: the under-referral and under-treatment of patients with aortic regurgitation (AR).
The conversation begins with the diagnostic challenges surrounding severe AR, followed by a striking observation—only...
Preventing distal particles embolization after DCB angioplasty
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
At EuroPCR 2025, Aloke Finn and Antonio Colombo share their insights on a specific and often overlooked complication of drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty: particulate embolization.
