The use of adjunct devices in complex PCI
11 Oct 2025 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2025
This session offers comprehensive education on the use of adjunct devices in complex PCI, focusing on different microcatheter designs and their optimal handling. It includes case-based illustrations demonstrating microcatheter applications, guidance on utilizing pre-shaped angled microcatheters in difficult anatomies, and the pivotal role of extension guide...
Complex coronary interventions - Current day challenges and solutions
11 Oct 2025 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2025
Addressing current challenges in complex coronary interventions, this session covers management strategies for CHIP patients, advanced techniques for highly calcified lesions, and principles for mechanical circulatory support application in high-risk PCI scenarios. It offers practical insights and case-based discussions to optimize safety and efficacy in contemporary...
Very resistant stenosis in stent failure - LIVE Case
11 Oct 2025 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2025
A 57-year-old male with a history of multivessel PCI—LAD and LCX stents in 2012 and RCA CTO stent in 2022—presented with normal LV function. He was asymptomatic but had a positive nuclear stress test. Control angiography showed suboptimal left coronary arteries with negative iFR. However, there...
Coronary complications and rescue cases
11 Oct 2025 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2025
This compelling session addresses complex coronary complications and rescue cases encountered in the cath lab. Through a series of challenging case studies, it highlights critical scenarios such as silent coronary artery threats, procedural nightmares, coronary perforations, and innovative rescue strategies that transform high-risk situations into successful...
TAVI and aortic valve procedures
11 Oct 2025 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2025
Focusing on transcatheter aortic valve interventions, this session covers a broad spectrum of complex cases including emergent TAV-in-SAV procedures, management of severely calcified bicuspid valves, zero-contrast TAVI techniques, and strategies for hostile anatomies. It provides valuable insights into procedural planning and follow-up to optimize patient care...
AICT-AsiaPCR 2025 Opening ceremony
10 Oct 2025 – From AICT-AsiaPCR 2025
The AICT-AsiaPCR 2025 Opening Ceremony marked the commencement of the conference's comprehensive program, setting the stage for cutting-edge discussions and advancements in interventional cardiology across the Asia-Pacific region.
A randomised trial comparing imaging-guided PCI with Orsiro vs Xience
18 May 2021
Previous clinical trials suggested that ultra-thin strut biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent (BP-SES) may be associated with lower target lesion failure (TLF) when compared to durable polymer everolimus-eluting stents (DP-EES). However, the possible underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, the all-comers CASTLE study was designed to assess the...
