The optimal treatment of multivessel coronary artery disease [PDF]
The practice of percutaneous coronary intervention has overtaken coronary bypass surgery in the treatment of ischaemic heart disease. Several randomized controlled as well as registry and observational trials have addressed the issue of patient selection

Advances in procedural techniques--antegrade. [PDF]
There have been many technological advances in antegrade CTO PCI, but perhaps most importantly has been the evolution of the "hybrid' approach where ideally there exists a seamless interplay of antegrade wiring, antegrade dissection re-entry and ...

Feasibility and performance of a device for automatic self-detection of symptomatic acute coronary artery occlusion in outpatients with coronary artery disease : a multicentre observational study [PDF]
Background Time delay between onset of symptoms and seeking medical attention is a major determinant of mortality and morbidity in patients with acute coronary artery occlusion. Response time might be reduced by reliable self-detection.

Successful Bail-Out Stenting for Iatrogenic Right Coronary Artery Dissection in a Young Male
Catheter-induced coronary artery dissection is a serious complication of coronary angiography. Percutaneous intervention is usually indicated in case of large spiral dissections, however, wiring into the true lumen can be challenging.

Platelet Inhibition in Percutaneous Coronary Interventions [PDF]
Mechanical disruption of atherosclerotic plaques at the time of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a potent stimulus for arterial thrombosis. Since platelets play a crucial role in the cascade of clot formation, platelet inhibition is an essential step for successful PCI.
