TCT 23 - We are joined by Dr Giovanni Luigi Di Maria (John Radcliffe Hospital, UK) to discuss the findings of the PICSO-AMI-I study (NCT04958421), sponsored by Miracor Medical. The PICSO-AMI-I study aimed to assess the safety and feasibility of pressure-controlled intermittent coronary sinus occlusion (PiCSO) in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (MI), presenting with TIMI 0 or 1… View more

In this week's episode of Parallax, host Dr Ankur Kalra engages in a thought-provoking discussion with Dr Stephen Smith, a pioneer in electrocardiography and myocardial infarction diagnosis. They delve into the groundbreaking OMI/NOMI paradigm (Occlusion MI vs Non-Occlusion MI), challenging the traditional STEMI vs non-STEMI terminology that has long been the cornerstone of acute coronary… View more

CRT 25 - Safety and effectiveness outcomes of the Agent drug-coated balloon (DCB) for the treatment of in-stent restenosis show a major reduction in target lesion failure, including cardiac death, myocardial infarction and target lesion revascularization, compared to balloon angioplasty. The Agent DCB also caused a significant reduction in all target lesion events in comparison with the control… View more

The optimal timing for administering unfractionated heparin (UFH) to patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) has been a topic of discussion. The HELP-PCI trial investigated whether pre-treatment with UFH at first medical contact (FMC) improves outcomes compared to administration in the catheterisation laboratory (Cath… View more

The optimal management for patients with high-grade asymptomatic carotid stenosis remains a key clinical question, particularly with advancements in medical therapy and revascularisation techniques. The CREST-2 trials were designed to assess whether adding revascularisation to intensive medical management provides a greater benefit than intensive medical management alone in this patient… View more

The optimal management for asymptomatic carotid stenosis has been a subject of debate, particularly with advancements in medical therapy. New findings from the Carotid Revascularization and Medical Management for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis Trial (CREST-2) provide clarity, suggesting a benefit for carotid-artery stenting when added to intensive medical management.¹MethodologyCREST-2 involved… View more
