Impact of Heart Failure and Chronic Kidney Disease on All‐Cause Mortality in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography: Results From the Finnish Kardio Multicentre Registry

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are common comorbidities among patients undergoing coronary angiography. Both conditions are associated with increased risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes and mortality. However, the joint prognostic impact of HF and CKD in this patient population remains unclear. Aims We aimed

Left Main PCI During Cardiac Arrest With Ongoing Lucas CPR

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) during cardiac arrest presents significant procedural challenges, particularly due to poor imaging and hemodynamic instability. We present the case of a 75‐year‐old man with worsening angina despite optimal medical therapy, who underwent PCI of the left anterior descending (LAD) artery.

Feasibility and Safety of Transfemoral Aortic Valve Replacement Using Local Anesthesia in the Catheterization Suite Versus General Anesthesia in the Operation Theater

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background For over a decade, transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacements (TF‐TAVR) have been performed at the University Hospital of Nancy. A minimalistic approach to TF‐TAVR, conducted without general anesthesia and entirely percutaneously in a catheterization suite (simplified approach), has been reported to be as safe and ...

Impact of Procedural Differences on Bolus Thermodilution Method for Assessment of Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The thermodilution technique, employing bolus injections to measure coronary flow reserve (CFR) and the index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR), is widely used to assess coronary microvascular function. However, the potential influence of catheter size and operator differences on these measurements has not been systematically ...

Three‐Cusp View Orientation in TAVI: Evaluating LOA Versus Non‐LOA Impact on Outcomes With Contemporary Valve Prostheses

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Optimal projection views during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedures are critical for procedural success and patient outcomes. Aims This study investigated the influence of 3‐cusp view orientation—line of alignment (LOA) versus non‐LOA—on procedural outcomes in patients undergoing TAVI with contemporary ...
