ABSTRACT Background Coronary slow flow and no reflow significantly predict poor prognosis in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients, especially those with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Early identification of factors contributing to these conditions can mitigate ischemic events and improve outcomes.

ABSTRACT Background Directional coronary atherectomy (DCA) is effective for bifurcation lesions but carries a risk of coronary perforation, due to geographical and recognition errors during the procedure. Geographical errors involve incorrect targeting of plaque‐free areas, whereas recognition errors stem from the misinterpretation of visual ...

Use of ReCross to Increase Success Rate With Antegrade CTO PCI—A Multicenter Observational Study
ABSTRACT Background Antegrade approach remains one of the predominant techniques for CTO PCI. Success rates have increased significantly recently due to advancements in devices and strategies, along with the hybrid algorithm. ReCross is a uniquely modified microcatheter with two over‐the‐wire lumens and three exit ports, offering significant potential ...
