Steerable Delivery Sheath for Optimized LAA Closure: First Experience and Procedural Outcomes

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The new Amplatzer Steerable Delivery Sheath is a delivery system designed to improve ease‐of‐use and procedural results of left atrial appendage closure (LAAC). We aimed to compare procedural results after switching our LAAC program at a tertiary care center with the Amulet device to the Steerable Delivery Sheath, with a control ...

An Idiosyncratic Reaction to Clopidogrel [PDF]

open access: yesThe Permanente Journal, 2015
Clopidogrel is an irreversible antiplatelet agent belonging to the thienopyridine group that acts to antagonize the adenosine diphosphate P2Y12 receptor on platelets. It thus inhibits the activation of platelet glycoprotein GPIIb/IIIa complex, which is essential for fibrinogen—platelet complex formation.

INtravaScular OptIcal Frequency Domain ImaGing EvaluaTion of the Femoropopliteal Lesion With JETSTREAM Atherectomy (INSIGHT JETSTREAM)

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There have been no prior reports of detailed evaluations using intravascular imaging during Jetstream treatment. Aims This study, therefore, aimed to investigate the effects of calcification characteristics and wire bias on lumen gain in Jetstream atherectomy using optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI). Methods This study enrolled

Assessment of P2Y12 Inhibition by Clopidogrel in Feline Platelets Using Flow Cytometry Quantification of Vasodilator-Stimulated Phosphoprotein Phosphorylation

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate a novel flow cytometry-based assay of quantifying platelet phosphorylation of vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (P-VASP) in cats that received clopidogrel treatment.

Potentiation of thrombus instability: a contributory mechanism to the effectiveness of antithrombotic medications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
© The Author(s) 2018The stability of an arterial thrombus, determined by its structure and ability to resist endogenous fibrinolysis, is a major determinant of the extent of infarction that results from coronary or cerebrovascular thrombosis.

Impact of Diabetes on Long‐Term Outcomes of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Coronary Bifurcation Lesions

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a well‐known risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery diseases (CAD). Complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) such as PCI for bifurcation lesions often yields poor outcomes, especially in DM patients.

Clinically Significant Bleeding With Ticagrelor Versus Clopidogrel in Korean Patients With Acute Coronary Syndromes Intended for Invasive Management: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

open access: yesCirculation, 2019
Owing to the differential propensity for bleeding and ischemic events with response to antiplatelet therapy, the safety and effectiveness of potent P2Y12 inhibitor ticagrelor in East Asian populations remain uncertain.

Safety and Efficacy of Single Femoral Vein Puncture Technique for Double Access in Patent Foramen Ovale Closure Under ICE Guidance—A Single Center Experience of the “Two‐In‐One Technique”

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In selected patient populations, percutaneous closure of patent foramen ovale has been shown to be beneficial in preventing cerebral ischaemic events. In most cases, this procedure requires echocardiographic guidance, which may be transesophageal, transthoracic or intracardiac.
