ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is an innovative treatment for coronary artery calcification (CAC). Aims This study aimed to compare procedural and clinical outcomes of intracoronary imaging (ICI)‐guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) versus angiography‐guided PCI with IVL in patients with CAC.

Using Shockwave Lithotripsy to Treat Severe Calcified Mitral Stenosis in a Pregnant Woman
ABSTRACT Rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) with significant calcification presents challenges for both surgical and transcatheter interventions. Percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (PBMV) is often limited in these cases due to valve rigidity, increasing the risk of mitral regurgitation (MR).

ABSTRACT Background There is little data questioning the timing of intra‐aortic balloon pump (IABP) implantation in non‐cardiogenic shock patients undergoing high‐risk percutaneous procedures. Aims We compared prophylactic IABP (P‐IABP) implantation to an emergent, unplanned rescue use (R‐IABP) in high‐risk PCI. Methods Among 300 IAPB patients who were

ABSTRACT Background Little is known about stroke volume index (SVi) change and its prognostic implication in patients with low‐flow aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing aortic valve replacement (AVR) and conflicting results are present in literature. The aim of this study was to evaluate the postoperative change in SVi and its impact on outcomes in patients
