The introduction of percutaneous coronary angioplasty in 1977 by Dr Andreas Grüntzig1 was one of the most remarkable achievements in the cardiology realm, opening the door to numerous advancements in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs). Due to advances in PCI techniques over the past four decades, catheters along with four generations of coronary stents have dramatically changed the… View more

ESC 23: The OCTIVUS Study
Author(s): Duk-Woo Park , Do-Yoon Kang Added: 7 months ago
ESC 2023 — We are joined onsite by Dr Duk-Woo Park and Dr Do-Yoon Kang (Asan Medical Center, Seoul, KR) to discuss the findings from the OCTIVUS study (NCT03394079). The OCTIVUS study (Seung-Jung Park, CardioVascular Research Foundation, Korea) aims to compare the clinical safety and efficacy of optimal coherence tomography (OCT) guided and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) guided strategies in… View more

Role of Intravascular Ultrasound in Guiding Complex Percutaneous Coronary Interventions
Author(s): Brandon Quintana , Akram Ibrahim Added: 3 years ago
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been rapidly evolving since its initial application in 1977. Over the years, it has become a mainstay of the treatment of coronary artery disease, including acute coronary syndromes and stable ischemic heart disease. With the advent of novel ancillary technologies, such as intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT), it has… View more

The Role of Hemodynamic Support in High-risk Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Author(s): Charles Simonton , Craig Thompson , Jason R Wollmuth , et al Added: 3 years ago
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally, despite advances in medical and preventive therapy. It is estimated that 18.2 million adults in the US have CAD, with 720,000 Americans projected to have a first hospitalization for MI or CAD death this year.1 Treatment of patients with symptomatic CAD includes guideline-directed medical therapy and coronary… View more

The highlights of the last decade in interventional cardiology have been the introduction of drug-eluting stents and an overall simplification of percutaneous coronary interventional procedures from a technological standpoint. Indeed, most interventions currently consist of either direct stenting or pre-dilatation followed by stent implantation; the use of rotational atherectomy and other niche… View more

Intravascular Ultrasound-guided Versus Angiography-guided Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Evidence from Observational Studies and Randomized Controlled Trials
Author(s): Xiao-Fei Gao , Xiang-Quan Kong , Guang-Feng Zuo , et al Added: 3 years ago
Coronary angiography is widely used to diagnose coronary artery disease and to guide percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, 2D projection angiography cannot completely reflect the 3D coronary lumen, with several inherent limitations in evaluating plaque composition, vessel diameter, diffuse reference vessel disease, lesion severity, as well as the result of stent deployment. In the… View more

ACC 23: RENOVATE-COMPLEX-PCI: IVUS Vs OCT Optimisation in Complex PCI
Author(s): Joo-Yong Hahn Added: 1 year ago
ACC.23/WCC - Principal investigator, Dr Joo-Yong Hahn (Samsung Medical Center, KR) joins us to discuss the findings of the RENOVATE-COMPLEX-PCI late-breaking trial (Samsung Medical Center). The investigators compared clinical outcomes between intravascular imaging guided (IVUS) versus angiography guided (OCT) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in 1639 patients with complex lesions … View more

Abstract The goal of infrapopliteal endovascular therapy is the re-establishment of straight-line flow to the foot with adequate perfusion of tissue. This treatment should be the first method in properly selected patients to relieve ischemic rest pain, heal ulcers and prevent limb loss, improving quality of life. Percutaneous angioplasty (PTA) continues to be the cornerstone of infrapopliteal… View more
