Maximum Allowable Contrast Dose and Risk of Acute Kidney Injury After Coronary Procedures

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Recent studies have questioned whether iodinated contrast is causally related to acute kidney injury (AKI). AIM We pursed a contemporary analysis to determine the impact of contrast dose on AKI following coronary procedures in an era of lower contrast doses and less nephrotoxic agents.

Novel Use of Intravascular Lithotripsy for the Mobilization of an Entrapped Coronary Guidewire in a Heavily Calcified LAD/DB Bifurcation Lesion—A Case Report

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 64‑year‑old man with a Non–ST‑elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) underwent coronary angiography, which revealed single‑vessel disease with a high‑grade proximal and a severely calcified mid‑LAD lesion just proximal to a diagonal branch (DB). Both the LAD and the DB were wired.

Incidence of Periprocedural Myocardial Injury and Infarction After Intravascular Lithotripsy for Calcified Coronary Artery Stenosis

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has emerged as an effective technique for modifying heavily calcified coronary plaques, facilitating optimal stent expansion while minimizing procedural complications. However, data on periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) and infarction (PPMI) following IVL remain scarce.

Five‐Year Clinical Outcomes of Biodegradable Versus Durable Polymer Drug‐Eluting Stents: A Propensity Score‐Matched Analysis of 4394 Patients

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Biodegradable‐polymer (BP) drug‐eluting stents (DES) were developed to mitigate potential late adverse events related to persistent durable polymers in durable‐polymer (DP) DES; however, contemporary long‐term real‐world comparative data remain limited. Aims We aimed to compare the 5‐year clinical outcomes of contemporary BP‐DES and

Angiographic findings in patients with Non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction

open access: yesPakistan Journal of Medical Sciences
Background & Objective: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) can be divided into subgroups of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), Non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), and unstable angina (USA). Patients diagnosed with NSTEMI are either treated conservatively or early invasive strategy is adopted.

Long-term mortality after first Acute Myocardial Infarction in the light of changing therapeutic guidelines and diagnostic criteria between 1995 and 2003 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: The introduction of new invasive therapies for acute myocardial infarction and new medication schemes for secondary prevention is thought to increase life expectancy in 28-day survivors of a first myocardial infarction.

When Subtle Guiding Catheter‐Induced Stent Deformation Leads to Abluminal Guidewire Passage: Successful IVUS Tip‐Detection‐Guided Bailout

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Incomplete stent apposition at the proximal coronary artery may predispose to subtle guiding catheter–induced stent deformation, creating a gap between the stent and the vessel wall that facilitates inadvertent abluminal guidewire passage. We report a case in which balloon dilatation over an unrecognized abluminal guidewire resulted in severe ...
