A Novel 3D Wiring Technique—ZOLUTION Zero Degree OverLap View Universal Three DimensIONal CTO Wiring

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present a novel simple and easy‐to‐use 3D wiring technique for coronary chronic total occlusions (CTOs) named ZOLUTION—Zero OverLap View Universal Three dimensIONal wiring. ZOLUTION can be used for: (1) Distal cap puncture, (2) CTO body wiring, (3) Retrograde wiring, and (4) Reverse controlled antegrade and retrograde tracking (reverse CART)

Partial CFD models of cardiovascular stents [PDF]

, 2002
Copyright @ 2002 Wiley BlackwellThis paper outlines the use of a partial CFD stent model in order to improve discretisation of important small features. The effects of mesh size on the performance measure are investigated.

A polymer coated cicaprost-eluting stent increases neointima formation and impairs vessel function in the rabbit iliac artery [PDF]

, 2016
Drug-eluting stents have been successful in reducing in-stent restenosis but are not suitable for all lesion types and have been implicated in causing late stent thrombosis due to incomplete regeneration of the endothelial cell layer.

Left Main Stem Perforation: Management Strategies in a Potentially Catastrophic Event

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Left main stem coronary perforation is a potentially fatal complication of percutaneous coronary intervention if not recognized early and treated emergently. Treating left main stem perforation can be challenging due to the significant hemodynamic effect of one of the important steps, namely balloon tamponade.

Impact of chronic outward force on arterial responses of proximal and distal of long superficial femoral artery stent

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background Self-expanding nitinol stent (SENS) implantation is commonly oversized in the superficial femoral artery (SFA), and leads to chronic outward force (COF) and in-stent restenosis (ISR).

The Hybrid Approach to Intervention of Chronic Total Occlusions [PDF]

, 2015
The "hybrid" approach to chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was developed to provide guidance on optimal crossing strategy selection.

Echocardiography‐Assisted Stenting of the Ductus Venosus in Infracardiac TAPVC: Report of a New Technique and Review of the Literature

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neonates with infracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) frequently require urgent treatment. If surgical repair is contraindicated due to extreme prematurity, interventional stenting of the ductus venosus (DV) has been introduced successfully to postpone surgery.

Effect of stent inflation pressure and post-dilatation on the outcome of coronary artery intervention. A report of more than 90,000 stent implantations. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) stent inflation pressure correlates to angiographic lumen improvement and stent expansion but the relation to outcome is not clarified.

Examination of the coatings of coronary stents [PDF]

, 2006
In our study the main properties of coated coronary stents are shown, such as foreshortening, recoil, surface features and failures and the expansion properties. The types and the effects of active and passive coatings are introduced.

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.
