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

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 7, Page 2293-2303, June 1, 2026.
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.

Two Case Reports of Percutaneous Intravascular Lithotripsy for the Treatment of Severe Coronary Artery Calcification

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Severe coronary calcification is a common challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention, often resulting in suboptimal stent expansion. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) employs acoustic pressure waves to fracture calcified plaques and increase procedural success.

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies

iNew Medicine, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.

Intravascular Lithotripsy Is Associated With Superior Clinical Outcomes Compared to Atherectomy: A Large‐Scale, Propensity‐Matched Analysis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 6, Page 1934-1944, May 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) with severe calcification remains a growing challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Atherectomy (ATH) has long been used for plaque modification, whereas intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has emerged as a promising alternative. Large‐scale comparative data on long‐term outcomes are limited.

Planned versus bailout rotational atherectomy: A systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]

, 2021
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Rotational atherectomy (RA) plays a central role in the treatment of heavily calcified coronary artery lesions. Our aim was to compare periprocedural characteristics and outcomes of planned (PA) vs. bailout (BA) rotational atherectomy.
