Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Prior to Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Acute Coronary Syndrome: Prevalence and Outcomes in Contemporary Practice

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is standard following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Preloading is the practice of administering both aspirin and a P2Y12 inhibitor before PCI. DAPT preloading is common practice, however clinical trial evidence demonstrating benefit is lacking.

Benefit of abciximab in patients with refractory unstable angina in relation to serum troponin T levels. [PDF]

, 1999
BACKGROUND: In patients with refractory unstable angina, the platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa-receptor antibody abciximab reduces the incidence of cardiac events before and during coronary angioplasty.

Prognosis in unstable angina. [PDF]

Heart, 1976
A retrospective study was made of 158 patients with unstable angina admitted to a coronary care unit over a 4-year period. Twenty patients (13 per cent) had myocardial infarcts while in hospital, and of these 3 died; three others died without preceding evidence of myocardial infarction. There was thus an acute mortality rate of 4 per cent.

Intramyocardial Hematoma After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Chronic Total Occlusion: Two Case Reports

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) is an extremely challenging procedure, with intramyocardial hematoma (IMH) being one of its rare yet severe complications. In this report, we detail two cases of IMH occurring during PCI for CTO, emphasizing the importance of avoiding catheter pressure entrapment and ...

Diagnostic Accuracy of Angiography‐Derived Murray Law‐Based Quantitative Flow Ratio (μQFR) Versus Pressure‐Derived Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) in Moderate to Severe Calcified Coronary Lesions—The DIAMOND Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Murray law‐based Quantitative Flow Ratio (μQFR) is an innovative AI‐driven method for evaluating coronary lesions using contrast flow velocity estimates. Unlike traditional approaches, μQFR does not require pressure wires or hyperemia induction.
