Impact of Coronary Calcification on Complete Revascularization in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome and Multivessel Disease

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary calcification is a well‐known marker of atherosclerotic plaque burden and a determinant of stent under expansion with unfavorable long‐term outcomes. Aims This sub study of the randomized BIOVASC trial aimed to compare immediate complete revascularization (ICR) and staged complete revascularization (SCR) in patients with ...

Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Prior to Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Acute Coronary Syndrome: Prevalence and Outcomes in Contemporary Practice

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is standard following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Preloading is the practice of administering both aspirin and a P2Y12 inhibitor before PCI. DAPT preloading is common practice, however clinical trial evidence demonstrating benefit is lacking.

Acute ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction after Coronary Stent Fracture

open access: yesJournal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2016
The invention of the drug-eluting stent (DES) has brought about revolutionary changes in the field of interventional cardiology. In the DES era, in-stent restenosis has declined but new issues such as stent thrombosis have emerged.

Longitudinal Stent Deformation at the Proximal Segment of the Left Main Coronary Artery Caused by a Stuck OCT Catheter: Case Report and Review of Literature

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
It has been rarely reported that a stuck optical coherence tomography (OCT) catheter can lead to longitudinal stent deformation (LSD). This complication can result in incomplete stent apposition and dissection after stent implantation.

Safety and Efficacy of a Plug‐Based Vascular Closure Device After Percutaneous Microaxial Flow Pump in the Treatment of Complex and High‐Risk Indicated Patients

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Femoral large‐bore vascular access is an important and constantly increasing technique in interventional treatment. Temporary circulatory support in complex and high‐risk indicated patients (CHIP) presents a challenge in terms of postinterventional access site closure.

Stent Fracture of Biolimus‐Eluting Stent (Biofreedom) Complicated With Micro‐Coronary Artery Aneurysm

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coronary stent fractures (SFs) are an emerging complication of coronary stents. There are numerous risk factors for SF, which include vessel angulation, use of sirolimus‐eluting stent (SES), long stents, multiple stent layers, stent overlap, inflammation, hypersensitivity, stenting in the right coronary artery, heavy calcification, ostial ...

Stent thrombosis in randomized clinical trials of drug-eluting stents.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2007
BACKGROUND Definitions of stent thrombosis that have been used in clinical trials of drug-eluting stents have been restrictive and have not been used in a uniform manner.
