This session explores challenging clinical scenarios in STEMI, including coronary embolisation from aortic valve vegetation, blunt chest trauma-related STEMI, intramural hematoma diagnostics with multimodality imaging, acute stent thrombosis during dengue recovery, and advanced clot removal techniques beyond standard aspiration devices.

This session demonstrates the feasibility of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with heart failure through a series of challenging cases. It covers sequential management of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy with aortic stenosis, advanced heart failure interventions, staged approaches in cardiogenic shock, and complex percutaneous interventions...

Delve into the critical aspects of mechanical circulatory support in cardiogenic shock, focusing on device selection, assessment of persistent congestion, and the application of unloading tools to improve patient management and outcomes.

This educational session provides a comprehensive overview of chronic total occlusion (CTO) PCI, elucidating key procedural steps, essential materials, and potential complications. It highlights the significant role of nurses and allied health professionals in supporting the procedure and enhancing patient experience throughout the pre-, intra-, and...

Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular heart disease leading to intervention. It is characterized by progression from leaflet thickening and calcification to significant haemodynamic stenosis which results in disease-specific symptoms and physical limitations as well as poor prognosis and impaired quality of life if...
