TAVI: how to prevent stroke
17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session focuses on strategies for preventing stroke during TAVI procedures. It features case presentations and discussions on the use of cerebral protection devices, including a novel full-body embolic protection device, and the management of complications such as cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome.
Transcatheter solutions for combined valve disease
17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session delves into the transcatheter management of patients with combined valve disease, including cases of concomitant aortic stenosis and mitral regurgitation, failed bioprostheses in both the aortic and mitral valves, and severe aortic regurgitation after previous valve-sparing root replacement. The session features case presentations and...
Non left main bifurcation - LIVE case
17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
A 53-year-old male presented with a late STEMI one month ago. Coronary angiography revealed three-vessel disease: CX occlusion (culprit lesion), RCA bifurcation stenosis, and severe mid LAD-D1 (1-1-1) stenosis. The operators performed RCA PCI during the STEMI hospitalization.
In this live case, they performed the LAD-D1 bifurcation...
Hot topics in interventional management of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA)
17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session explores the latest insights and strategies for managing out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients. Key topics include identifying OHCA patients who may benefit from immediate cathlab admission, the default PCI strategy in OHCA, and how to organize an effective OHCA network. Discussions will cover estimating...
