Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Guided by High‐Definition Intravascular Ultrasound (The SPECTRUM Study)

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Limited data are available on the use of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in patients presenting with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Aims This study aimed to assess the impact of IVUS‐guided primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Clinical Impact of Adherence to Fractional Flow Reserve Guidance in Acute Coronary Syndrome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is established to guide revascularization in stable coronary disease and non‐culprit lesions in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). However, real‐world adherence to FFR guidance across the spectrum of ACS presentations, including ambiguous culprit scenarios, remains incompletely characterized.

Critical Appraisal of Medical System Performance for STEMI Management – a Comprehensive Analysis of Time Efficiency

Journal of Cardiovascular Emergencies
Time intervals related to ST-segment myocardial infarction (STEMI) revascularization are central determinants for patient outcomes. The current capability of the Romanian STEMI program to meet guideline-recommended time intervals is largely unknown.

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.

Incidence of Periprocedural Myocardial Injury and Infarction After Intravascular Lithotripsy for Calcified Coronary Artery Stenosis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has emerged as an effective technique for modifying heavily calcified coronary plaques, facilitating optimal stent expansion while minimizing procedural complications. However, data on periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) and infarction (PPMI) following IVL remain scarce.

Five‐Year Clinical Outcomes of Biodegradable Versus Durable Polymer Drug‐Eluting Stents: A Propensity Score‐Matched Analysis of 4394 Patients

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Biodegradable‐polymer (BP) drug‐eluting stents (DES) were developed to mitigate potential late adverse events related to persistent durable polymers in durable‐polymer (DP) DES; however, contemporary long‐term real‐world comparative data remain limited. Aims We aimed to compare the 5‐year clinical outcomes of contemporary BP‐DES and

Sex Differences in Cardiac Rehabilitation Access and Utilization: A Systematic Review of Barriers and Facilitators in Cardiovascular Care

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is central to secondary prevention, but women remain less likely than men to access and fully utilize CR. This systematic review examined sex differences across the CR utilization continuum, separating referral, enrollment, attendance or session exposure, and program completion, and evaluated barriers and ...
