Carotid Artery Stent Placement

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2010
In the past 3 years, there have been significant developments in the field of carotid revascularization, including: 1) the results of a large primary stroke prevention trial; 2) the emergence of novel platforms for emboli protection; 3) improved characterization of the high-risk carotid artery stent (CAS) patient; 4) completion of several very large ...

Adjusting for bias introduced by instrumental variable estimation in the Cox Proportional Hazards Model

open access: yes, 2017
Instrumental variable (IV) methods are widely used for estimating average treatment effects in the presence of unmeasured confounders. However, the capability of existing IV procedures, and most notably the two-stage residual inclusion (2SRI) procedure ...

Recanalization of the Chronically Occluded Internal Carotid Artery: Review of the Literature. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Introduction: We reviewed the literature on interventions for patients with medically refractory chronically occluded internal carotid artery (COICA) to assess the risks and/or benefits after recanalization via an endovascular technique (ET) or hybrid ...

Recanalization of Thrombosed Atrial Flow Regulator in Failing Fontan: A Bridge to Transplant

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report the case of a 10‐year‐old boy (41 kg, 133 cm) with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (mitral and aortic atresia), who underwent staged palliation: Norwood‐Sano at 6 days, Glenn at 7 months, and Fontan completion at 3 years using a 16 mm non‐fenestrated extracardiac Gore‐Tex conduit.

Pre‐ and Post‐Interventional Hemodynamic Characterization of the Femoropopliteal Artery Using Vector Flow Imaging in Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The femoropopliteal (FP) artery is the most frequently revascularized segment in peripheral artery disease (PAD), followed by the iliac segment. Wall shear stress (WSS) is a key local factor implicated in both atherosclerotic plaque formation and restenosis after angioplasty.

Carotid artery stenting compared with endarterectomy in patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis (International Carotid Stenting Study): a randomised controlled trial with cost-effectiveness analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
BACKGROUND: Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is an alternative to carotid endarterectomy (CEA) for the treatment of carotid stenosis, but safety and long-term efficacy were uncertain. OBJECTIVE: To compare the risks, benefits and cost-effectiveness

Impact of Proton Pump Inhibitor Use on Outcomes Following Carotid Artery Stenting for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis: A Population‐Based Cohort Study

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is an effective treatment for carotid stenosis. Proton‐pump inhibitors (PPIs) are commonly prescribed in the general population. However, the impact of PPI use on outcomes following CAS remains unknown. This study investigated the impact of PPI use on CAS using a retrospective, matched‐cohort analysis from the ...

Novel 3D-CT evaluation of carotid stent volume: greater chronological expansion of stents in patients with vulnerable plaques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Although self-expanding carotid stents may dilate gradually, the degrees of residual stenosis have been quantified by the NASCET criteria, which is too simple to reflect the configuration of the stented artery. We measured the volumes of the stent lumens
