open access: yesNippon Ronen Igakkai Zasshi. Japanese Journal of Geriatrics, 2018
Cardiac catheterization is a procedure by which information is obtained from the heart by passing fine plastic tubes (occasionally other instruments) either near to or within the heart, to introduce contrast to cardiac structures to understand their anatomy and function better, to measure pressures, and/or to measure oxygen saturations in different ...

Guidelines for Percutaneous Coronary Interventions [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2005
In patients with stable CAD, PCI can be considered a valuable initial mode of revascularization in all patients with objective large ischaemia in the presence of almost every lesion subset, with only one exception: chronic total occlusions that cannot be crossed. In early studies, there was a small survival advantage with CABG surgery compared with PCI

Collateral donor artery physiology and the influence of a chronic total occlusion on fractional flow reserve [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background— The presence of a concomitant chronic total coronary occlusion (CTO) and a large collateral contribution might alter the fractional flow reserve (FFR) of an interrogated vessel, rendering the FFR unreliable at predicting ischemia should the ...
