Unveiling the Microvasculature: The Index of Microcirculatory Resistance and Its Expanding Role in Cardiovascular Care

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) is a cutting‐edge, wire‐based tool that advances the capability assessment of coronary microvascular function. By utilizing distal coronary pressure and mean transit time under maximal hyperemia, IMR delivers consistent, reproducible insights into the microvasculature's dynamic health.

Percutaneous Deployment of the Sinus‐SuperFlex‐DS Stent for Hybrid Stage I Palliation in Neonates Weighing ≤ 2.5 kg: A Multicenter Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hybrid stage I palliation (HS1P) has developed as an alternative to the Norwood stage I palliation for neonates with hypoplastic left heart and related left‐sided obstructive lesions. HS1P is currently used in various clinical settings, such as single ventricle palliation, bridge to decision, bridge to biventricular repair, or ...

Pathophysiologic Consequences of Early Coarctation Stenting in a Longitudinal Porcine Model

Catheterization 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 ...

Mechanical Thrombus Aspiration for a Young STEMI Patient With Plaque Erosion: Time for a Stent‐Free Approach?

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 34‐year‐old man with no cardiovascular history presented with anterior ST‐elevation myocardial infarction and a large thrombotic occlusion of the mid left anterior descending artery. Following potent antithrombotic therapy and mechanical thrombus aspiration, angiography revealed vessel patency without residual significant stenosis, allowing ...
