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.

Prognosis in unstable angina. [PDF]
A retrospective study was made of 158 patients with unstable angina admitted to a coronary care unit over a 4-year period. Twenty patients (13 per cent) had myocardial infarcts while in hospital, and of these 3 died; three others died without preceding evidence of myocardial infarction. There was thus an acute mortality rate of 4 per cent.

ABSTRACT Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) is an extremely challenging procedure, with intramyocardial hematoma (IMH) being one of its rare yet severe complications. In this report, we detail two cases of IMH occurring during PCI for CTO, emphasizing the importance of avoiding catheter pressure entrapment and ...

ABSTRACT Background Coronary bifurcation lesions (CBL) account for ~20% of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). When using provisional stenting, optimal management of a diseased side branch (SB) remains debated. Drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) are an emerging option, but data on their role in CBL PCI are limited.
