Optimisation of immediate and long-term outcomes using a novel self-expanding valve
18 Dec 2024 – From GulfPCR-GIM 2024
Explore the features and benefits of the ACURATE neo2, a novel self-expanding valve, through clinical cases and recorded procedures. Gain insights into step-by-step implantation techniques, the latest evidence in TAVI, and outcomes from immediate to long-term, focusing on lifetime patient management.
Wireless physiology assessment
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session examines the evolving field of wireless physiology assessment in PCI. Topics include randomized trials comparing angiography and physiology guidance, prognostic performance of imaging-derived physiology, and outcomes in various patient subsets including elderly patients with multivessel disease.
Beyond angiography: imaging-guided solutions for stent failure
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Stent failure remains a critical challenge in interventional cardiology — but intracoronary imaging can change the outcome. This session goes beyond angiography to examine why stents fail, how to detect underlying causes, and how imaging-guided strategies can help tailor reintervention. Two real-life cases, from complex restenosis...
Complications in STEMI : dissections and more
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Address complications encountered in STEMI interventions such as dissections and coronary perforations. Learn from case presentations highlighting procedural challenges, management of delayed perforations, and balancing procedural perfection with practical outcomes.
OHCM, ablation complications: interventional solutions
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Explore interventional solutions for complications arising in obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (OHCM) and ablation procedures. Cases include complex congenital anomalies, novel non-invasive treatments, dual pulmonary vein stenosis, iatrogenic fistulas, and ablation-related cardiac defects.
Calcium modification: contemporary comparaisons of atherectomy and IVL
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Compare contemporary calcium modification techniques including atherectomy and intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) in complex coronary lesions. Review clinical outcomes, procedural case studies, and registry data highlighting safety and efficacy in acute coronary syndrome and high-risk patients.
SURTAVI: five-year results from a randomized trial of TAVR vs. SAVR in patients at intermediate surgical risk
07 Nov 2021
Although TAVI is an accepted alternative to surgery in patients with severe aortic stenosis who are at high surgical risk, less is known about long-term comparative outcomes among patients with aortic stenosis who are at intermediate surgical risk. P. Redaelli & M. Pighi review the SURTAVI trial...

BRIGHT-4 – Bivalirudin plus a high-dose infusion versus heparin monotherapy in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention: a randomised trial
07 Nov 2022
Nicola Ryan provides her take on the BRIGHT-4 study, which was presented during AHA 2022 in Chicago, & simultaneously published in the Lancet.
This study was a randomised control trial designed to assess if bivalirudin plus a high dose infusion for 2-4 hours post PPCI was superior to unfractionated...
