Percutaneous Transaxillary Access for Large‐Bore Cardiovascular Interventions: Evidence, Technique, and Complication Management

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous transaxillary access is an established alternative to transfemoral large‐bore arterial access for transcatheter structural heart interventions and mechanical circulatory support (MCS). Although useful for overcoming hostile iliofemoral anatomy and providing prolonged support and patient mobilization in case of MCS, the axillary ...

Evaluation of Treatment Response of Calcified Nodules and Nodular Calcified Lesions Using Mean Density on Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Calcified nodules (CN) and nodular calcifications (NC) present significant challenges during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) because of their protruding morphology and high rigidity, which often result in inadequate stent expansion and suboptimal procedural outcomes.

Hospital‐Level Variations in Outcomes and Readmissions Among Patients With STEMI and Cardiogenic Shock Receiving Mechanical Circulatory Support: Insights From a National Cohort

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The utilization of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in patients presenting with ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) complicated by cardiogenic shock (CS) has increased substantially in recent years. However, it remains unclear whether the spectrum of MCS devices available and the type of hospital in which patients are ...

Interventional Mitral Valve Edge‐to‐Edge Repair in Patients Above 85 Years of Age

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Mitral valve transcatheter‐edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) is routinely performed in patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) at high operative risk, frequently including elderly patients. Patients ≥ 85 years, however, are frequently excluded in clinical studies.

Use of Intracoronary Pressure Wire Assessment and Association With Outcomes: Insights From the British Cardiovascular Intervention Society National Database

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite recommendations in international guidelines, Intracoronary pressure wire assessment (PWA) utilization remains limited in clinical practice. This study aims to describe (i) trends of PWA during Percutaneous coronary interventional (PCI), (ii) factors that predict its application, and (iii) association with in‐hospital ...
