Novel Wire‐Assisted Mitral Commissurotomy Reduces Valve Crossing Time Compared to Inoue‐Balloon Technique of Treating Mitral Stenosis, Randomized Controlled Trial (CROSSVal)

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Percutaneous mitral commissurotomy (PMC) of mitral stenosis is routinely performed by the Inoue balloon technique (IBT) which may be challenging with respect to valvular crossing. Using a novel wire‐assisted method (WAM) may improve feasibility and time efficiency. Aims In a randomized clinical trial, we compared the feasibility and

Superiority of the Rockwood Clinical Frailty Scale for Assessing Long‐Term Outcome in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Frailty is associated with poorer short‐term outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), and national guidelines recommend an assessment of frailty as part of the decision‐making process. However, multiple frailty indices are currently used in clinical practice, and it is unclear which has the best discrimination ...

Bench Testing Analysis of Perforation Management in the Setting of Bifurcation Coronary Intervention

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Management of coronary perforation in bifurcation lesions with covered stents remains challenging. Aims We aimed to describe a proper practice and toolbox for “jailed‐branch” management after covered stent deployment. Methods Using a bench model, we tested various wires with a 120° angulated microcatheter for their ability to ...

Prevention and Management of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention‐Related Complications: Assessing the Impact of Simulation‐Based Learning and Human Factors Training

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Complications of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain infrequent but are associated with a risk of serious injury or death. The techniques and devices required to manage them may be unfamiliar or unavailable to operators.
