Cracking open the discussion on the clinical experience with intravascular lithotripsy in acute coronary syndromes
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
Explore this session to uncover the common association between calcium and acute coronary syndrome, and how intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) offers a safe solution for calcified lesions, with comparable procedural success rates. However, note that ACS cases involving calcium may lead to higher major adverse cardiac events...
When and how to treat the side branch in non-left main bifurcations?
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
In this video, Jens Flensted Lassen and Thomas Cuisset discuss the importance of the side branch during bifurcation percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). They emphasize that while there is no perfect solution for all patients, decisions must be tailored to each individual case, often influenced by the patient's...
Interventions for valvular disease: Highlights of EuroPCR 2024
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
Christopher Cook hosts Nicolas Dumonteil and Bernard Prendergast as they share EuroPCR 2024 insights on valve disease interventions.

After ORBITA 2, what is the role of PCI in the contemporary management of patients with angina and coronary disease?
16 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
Emanuele Barbato interviews Rasha Al-Lamee, the principal investigator of the ORBITA 2 trial, about the current role of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Unlike ORBITA 1, ORBITA 2 focused on the effects of angioplasty as a monotherapy, without prior anti-angina treatment. The results showed that angioplasty improved symptoms...
