Feasibility and performance of a device for automatic self-detection of symptomatic acute coronary artery occlusion in outpatients with coronary artery disease : a multicentre observational study [PDF]

, 2019
Background Time delay between onset of symptoms and seeking medical attention is a major determinant of mortality and morbidity in patients with acute coronary artery occlusion. Response time might be reduced by reliable self-detection.

Efficacy of Direct Injection in Occlusive Lesion (DIOL) Fashion for Infrapopliteal and Inframalleolar Chronic Total Occlusions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Endovascular therapy (EVT) for chronic total occlusions (CTOs) in patients with critical limb‐threatening ischemia (CLTI) remains technically challenging, particularly in infrapopliteal lesions. Direct injection in occlusive lesions (DIOL) fashion is a novel adjunctive strategy that utilizes hydraulic contrast injection through a ...

Management of Lost Atherectomy Devices in the Coronary Arteries

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rotational and orbital atherectomy are important tools to treat calcific coronary disease. Entrapment of an atherectomy device, that is, rotational atherectomy burr or orbital atherectomy crown, is a serious complication during atherectomy. Loss of an atherectomy device is a more challenging complication that usually follows device entrapment.
