Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1985
Dotter and Judkins (1) in 1964 reported the use of coaxial dilating catheters in remodeling the lumen of obstructed peripheral arteries. In Zurich in 1977 Griintzig (2) reported the first transcutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty using a system for mechanically dilating a stenosed epicar• dial artery.

Percutaneous Transluminal coronary angioplasty [PDF]

Journal of the Korean Radiological Society, 1986
The incidence of prior percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in surgical cases is nearly doubling yearly. In 1985, 11.4% of our bypass patients had one or more prior angioplasties. One hundred thirty-five patients with prior angioplasty are compared to 2,205 patients without angioplasty undergoing surgical revascularization. The mortality is 3.

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty [PDF]

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1980
Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, first performed in man in 1977, has been used increasingly in selected patients with angina pectoris due to coronary atherosclerosis. Patients with single-vessel coronary artery disease in whom the stenosis is relatively proximal, noncalcified, discrete, and tapered rather than eccentric are the best ...

Endovascular Treatment of Malfunctioning Dialysis Fistulas: A Multicenter Retrospective Analysis Comparing Transradial and Conventional Transvenous Access

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Venous outflow is the favored access for endovascular management of dialysis fistulas. However, transradial access (TRA) offers advantages in specific clinical scenarios. The study aims to compare the efficacy, feasibility, and safety of TRA and transvenous access (TVA) in the endovascular management of malfunctioning dialysis ...

PCSK‐9 Inhibitors Can Significantly Improve the Coronary Slow Flow Caused by Elevated Lipoprotein (a) in ST‐Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary slow flow and no reflow significantly predict poor prognosis in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients, especially those with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Early identification of factors contributing to these conditions can mitigate ischemic events and improve outcomes.

Propensity Matched Analysis of 14 French Suture‐ Versus Plug‐Based Vascular Closure During Transfemoral Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR)

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Plug‐based vascular closure devices (Pb‐VCD) and suture‐based vascular closure devices (Sb‐VCD) are used for percutaneous vascular access site closure during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Until now, no clear superiority of either device was shown in studies comparing 18 F VCDs solely.

Changing Trends in Carotid Revascularization in Australia: A Nationwide Study Over 30 Years

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Carotid artery stenosis is one of the causes of acute ischaemic stroke. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid artery stenting (CAS) are the main procedural treatment options. This study investigates the changing trends in carotid revascularisation in Australia over the last 30 years.

Association of a State‐Wide Alternative Payment Model for Rural Hospitals With Bypass for Elective Surgeries

Health Services Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to measure the changes in rural hospital bypass for 11 common elective surgeries following the implementation of the Pennsylvania Rural Health Model (PARHM), a global budget payment model. Study Setting and Design We leveraged a natural experiment arising from the phase‐in of PHARM in Pennsylvania.
