Intraaortic balloon pump support during coronary angioplasty. Initial experience

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 1999
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the use of the intraaortic balloon (IAoB) in association with coronary angioplasty in high-risk patients. METHODS: Fourteen high-risk patients unresponsive to clinical therapy and with formal contraindication to surgical ...

Drug‐coated balloons: From conventional designs to next‐generation innovations in vascular therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review traces the evolution of drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) from conventional designs to next‐generation platforms. We highlight innovations in balloon engineering, coating technologies, and therapeutic agents that enhance localized drug delivery while addressing challenges in efficiency, safety, and biocompatibility for vascular and emerging non ...

Variability in ACT Response to Standard UFH Bolus During PCI: A Prospective Study on Determinants of Subtherapeutic Anticoagulation

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Unfractionated heparin (UFH) remains the standard anticoagulant during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), with guidelines recommending a target activated clotting time (ACT) of ≥250 s. However, despite receiving a standardized bolus dose, many patients fail to achieve this target.

“Device embolization during Trans-radial percutaneous coronary intervention: Various approaches – A case series”

IHJ Cardiovascular Case Reports, 2021
Device embolization is an uncommon complication in the course of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Newer balloon-mounted stents and advanced techniques have significantly reduced the incidence of stent dislodgement and embolization.

Successful Revascularization of Chronic Total Occlusions in Patients With Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Disease

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary disease (CTEPD) leads to chronic total occlusions (CTOs) of the pulmonary arteries in a minority of patients. Treatment of CTOs with balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) may substantially improve patient hemodynamics but presents unique technical challenges and has previously been associated with a ...

Evaluating the Clinical Outcomes of Drug-Coated Balloon and Conventional Balloon Angioplasty in the Management of Stent Edge Restenosis

Allied Medical Research Journal, 2023
Background Coronary stenting is frequently complicated by stent edge restenosis (SER), which causes the artery to re-narrow. Drug-eluting stents (DES), plain balloon angioplasty (POBA), conventional balloon angioplasty (CBA), and drug-coated balloons (

Left Main Stem Perforation: Management Strategies in a Potentially Catastrophic Event

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Left main stem coronary perforation is a potentially fatal complication of percutaneous coronary intervention if not recognized early and treated emergently. Treating left main stem perforation can be challenging due to the significant hemodynamic effect of one of the important steps, namely balloon tamponade.

Cutting balloon angioplasty for intrastent restenosis treatment

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 1999
We describe here two patients with angiographic diagnosis of intrastent restenosis and regional myocardial ischemia. One stent restenosis was located in a native coronary artery and the other in a vein graft.

Influence of the Residual Gensini Score on Prognosis of Patients With ST‐Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The residual Gensini score (rGS) was developed to quantify the severity of coronary atheroma burden after coronary revascularisation. The predictive value of the rGS for clinical outcomes in patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unexplored.
