Safety and feasibility of rotational atherectomy (RA) versus conventional stenting in patients with chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions: a systematic review and meta-analysis

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Background and aim Interventional cardiologists face challenges in managing chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions, with conflicting results when comparing rotational atherectomy (RA) to conventional PCI.

Intravascular Ultrasound Findings Associated With Hydrodynamic Contrast Recanalization (HDR) of Coronary Chronic Total Occlusions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hydrodynamic contrast recanalization (HDR) is a novel technique to facilitate wire crossing during chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). The mechanisms underlying HDR have not been fully described.

Advances in procedural techniques--antegrade. [PDF]

, 2014
There have been many technological advances in antegrade CTO PCI, but perhaps most importantly has been the evolution of the "hybrid' approach where ideally there exists a seamless interplay of antegrade wiring, antegrade dissection re-entry and ...

Drug-Eluting Stents in Multivessel Coronary Artery Disease: Cost Effectiveness and Clinical Outcomes

Advances in Pharmacological Sciences, 2012
Multivessel coronary artery disease is more often treated either with coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stenting.

Comparison of Fixed‐Dose Clopidogrel/Asetylsalicylic Acid Combination and Standard Loading Strategy During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Chronic Coronary Syndrome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), comprising acetylsalicylic acid and a P2Y12 receptor inhibitor such as clopidogrel, is the cornerstone of management in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). While conventional loading doses of acetylsalicylic acid and clopidogrel are well established, there is limited ...

High-sensitivity cardiac troponin T and copeptin assays to improve diagnostic accuracy of exercise stress test in patients with suspected coronary artery disease [PDF]

, 2014
Background: The average diagnostic sensitivity of exercise stress tests (ESTs) is lower than that of other non-invasive cardiac stress tests. The aim of the study was to examine whether high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) or copeptin ...

Procedural Characteristics and Safety of Slender Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Slender Is Better

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives We aimed to examine the procedural characteristics and safety profile of slender percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) using a 5 Fr or smaller sheath. Background Smaller catheter size has been associated with fewer complications in PCI.

Patients with symptoms and characteristics consistent with obstructive sleep apnea are at a higher risk for acute and subacute stent thrombosis after percutaneous coronary stent implantation: a single-center case–control study

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2017
Background To determine if obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a risk factor for early stent thrombosis (EST; within 30 days) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Direct Drug-Eluting Stenting to Reduce Stent Restenosis

JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2014
The aim was to investigate whether a strategy of direct drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation without pre-dilation is associated with a reduced incidence of restenosis compared with CS with pre-dilation or provisional stenting (PS).Previous studies were performed comparing direct stenting (DS) with conventional stenting (CS) after pre-dilation; however,
