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...

Inflammation and cardiovascular risk

21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026

Exploring the interplay between inflammation and cardiovascular risk, this session reviews contemporary research on residual risk post-PCI, inflammatory markers in coronary artery disease especially in type 2 diabetes and ACS, and prognostic tools including lipoprotein(a) and systemic inflammation indices.

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.

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.
