Ventricular fibrillation caused by massive right coronary air embolism: a case report

open access: yesThe Egyptian Heart Journal
Background Coronary air embolism is a rare but severe complication of coronary interventions. Case presentation We present a case of a massive air embolism in the right coronary artery during percutaneous coronary intervention, resulting in ventricular ...

Fractional Flow Reserve and Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio for Nonculprit Stenosis in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction.

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2018
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare the changes of fractional flow reserve (FFR) or instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) with severity of epicardial coronary stenosis between nonculprit vessel of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and stable ...

Influence of the Residual Gensini Score on Prognosis of Patients With ST‐Elevation Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The residual Gensini score (rGS) was developed to quantify the severity of coronary atheroma burden after coronary revascularisation. The predictive value of the rGS for clinical outcomes in patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unexplored.

Feasibility and Safety of Distal Transradial Access in Patients With Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest Undergoing Emergency PCI: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Distal transradial access (dTRA) has gained attention for its lower risk of vascular complications compared to conventional transradial access (TRA). However, its feasibility and safety in patients with out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) undergoing emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain uncertain.

Pathophysiologic Consequences of Early Coarctation Stenting in a Longitudinal Porcine Model

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Novel stent technologies offer early intravascular treatment options for coarctation (COA). Mid‐to‐long‐term cardiovascular responses to early COA stent interventions are undefined. Aims We studied a porcine model of COA, with and without early stent implantation with serial dilation to adult aortic diameters, aiming to define ...

Hypertension as a predictor of adverse cardiac events in patients with borderline fractional flow reserve

open access: yes, 2007
Objective - The cut-off value myocardial fractional flow reserve (FFRmyo) = 0.75. Other clinical characteristics may affect such treatment decision.

Transient integral boundary layer method to calculate the translesional pressure drop and the fractional flow reserve in myocardial bridges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background The pressure drop – flow relations in myocardial bridges and the assessment of vascular heart disease via fractional flow reserve (FFR) have motivated many researchers the last decades.

The difficult discussion on the deactivation of implantable cardioverter devices at the end of life: a systematic review

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 733-760, April 2025.
Abstract Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) reliably prevent death due to life‐threatening arrhythmias; this may become less relevant in people with more severe heart failure who are reaching the end of life (EOL). This review aimed to explore the ICD deactivation process and identify ethical issues, especially around the initiation of ...

The Relationship between Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction Frame Count and Fractional Flow Reserve in Patients with Moderate Coronary Stenosis Undergoing Coronary Angiography

open access: yesپزشکی بالینی ابن سینا, 2017
Background and Objective: Thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) frame count (TFC) is an objective and quantitative index of coronary flow, and myocardial fractional flow reserve (FFR) is a lesion-specific index for epicardial coronary stenosis ...
