Unveiling the Microvasculature: The Index of Microcirculatory Resistance and Its Expanding Role in Cardiovascular Care

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) is a cutting‐edge, wire‐based tool that advances the capability assessment of coronary microvascular function. By utilizing distal coronary pressure and mean transit time under maximal hyperemia, IMR delivers consistent, reproducible insights into the microvasculature's dynamic health.

Radial Versus Femoral Access for Diagnostic Coronary Angiography: Insights From a Tertiary Academic Center in Johannesburg

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The radial artery is the preferred access for performing diagnostic coronary angiograms (DCA). However, data on the safety and efficacy of radial compared to femoral access in low‐ and middle‐income countries is limited. Aims This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of radial versus femoral access in patients referred for

Validation of the European Society of Cardiology Ischemic and Bleeding Risk Criteria for Risk Stratification After Endovascular Therapy in Japanese Patients With Lower Extremity Artery Disease

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines for peripheral artery disease recommend antithrombotic strategies based on high ischemic risk (HIR) and high bleeding risk (HBR) criteria. However, their prognostic value in patients with lower extremity artery disease (LEAD) undergoing endovascular therapy (EVT) remains unclear ...

Same‐Day Discharge After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Who, When, and How?

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The burden of severe aortic stenosis requiring treatment is growing due to ageing populations. This places increased demands on health resources due to the growing number of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedures and hospital bed occupancy.

Lower AKI Risk and Higher Survival With Microaxial Flow Pump Support During Elective PCI: A Propensity Score‐Matched Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with worse outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Previous, smaller studies suggested nephroprotective effects of micro‐axial flow pump (mAFP) during PCI. This study aimed to compare renal outcomes of high‐risk PCI with mAFP or intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) support.

Association of Hospital Volume With Outcomes of Pulmonary Embolism in the United States

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary embolism (PE) remains a leading cause of mortality in the United States. While prior studies show improved outcomes at higher‐volume centers, the understanding of procedural utilization remains limited. Aims Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the association of hospital PE volume and intervention utilization with ...

Drug‐Coated Balloon‐Based Strategy for De Novo Coronary Artery Disease Across Complex and High‐Risk Indicated Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Risk Categories: A Multicenter Registry Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Evidence regarding the risk‐stratified effectiveness of drug‐coated balloon (DCB)‐based PCI for de novo coronary artery disease (CAD) remains limited, particularly in patients undergoing complex and high‐risk indicated percutaneous coronary intervention (CHIP PCI).
