Alain Cribier's determination in the 1980s to provide a definitive solution for high-risk surgical candidates with severe aortic stenosis was met with significant resistance. However, over many years transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) was developed and refined, leading to the first human procedure in April 2002 in France. Since this first description by Cribier et al.,1 there are now… View more

EuroPCR 23: FAME III Three-Year Follow-Up
Author(s): Frederik Zimmermann Added: 11 months ago
EuroPCR 23 – In this late-breaking science interview, we are joined by Prof Frederick Zimmermann (Catharina Hospital, NL) to discuss the findings from a 3-year follow-up of the FAME III trial. The objective of the FAME 3 trial was to demonstrate the noninferiority of fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) compared to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)… View more

Job title: Director of Electrophysiology
An industry leader in complex Electrophysiology cases and research, Dr DeLurgio uses the most advanced technology to detect, diagnose and treat arrhythmias. While some patients can be treated through the use of medication or even pacemakers, Dr DeLurgio also offers treatment through a procedure called a cardiac ablation. During this safe, minimally invasive procedure, Dr DeLurgio uses high tech… View more

Insights from Carotid Artery Stenting Registries Registries tend to have less stringent inclusion and exclusion criteria than randomised trials and provide real-world data on a broad variety of patients treated by a range of interventionists of varying experience. Registries serve to provide first-time evaluation of new devices, help set up learning curve pearls, can be hypothesis-generating and… View more

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), a procedure often performed under local anaesthetic with a 2–3 day length of stay, has the capacity to transform lives for the better with dramatic improvements in exercise tolerance and quality of life. Complication rates are low, but stroke – particularly disabling stroke – remains a feared outcome for patients and operators alike. As such, it is… View more
