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 ...

A Large Retrospective Study to Evaluate Utility of Zephyr Covered Stent in Transcatheter Closure of Sinus Venosus Defects

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter closure (TCC) of sinus venosus defects (SVD) using balloon‐expandable covered stents is an emerging alternative to surgery. ZephyrCS (Sahajanand Laser Technologies, Gandhinagar, India) is available in long lengths to suit SVD closure.

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

Catheterization 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.
