The use of paclitaxel-coated devices for infrainguinal endovascular revascularisation does not reduce the rate of major amputation or all-cause mortality in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI), according to findings from a large registry-based trial in Sweden.¹ Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a significant global health issue, and for patients with its most severe form,… View more

A study has found that while the severity of ischaemia correlates poorly with daily angina symptoms in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD), the development of coronary collateral circulation is associated with both the ischaemic burden and reduced intensity of ischaemic chest pain.¹ This may help explain the often-observed disconnect between stenosis severity and patient-reported… View more

The use of paclitaxel-coated devices did not reduce the rate of major amputations or death in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI) undergoing infrainguinal endovascular revascularisation, according to the results of a large registry-based trial.¹ While drug-coated devices are commonly used in peripheral interventions, their effect on amputation risk has been uncertain.²The… View more

The long-term durability of complete revascularization in older patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and multivessel disease has been a subject of recent debate. New 3-year follow-up data from the Functional Assessment in Elderly MI Patients With Multivessel Disease (FIRE) trial show that the clinical benefits of a physiology-guided complete revascularization strategy are sustained over time… View more

LINC 2025 - Three-year outcomes of drug-coated balloon (DCB) treatment for femoropopliteal (FP) chronic total occlusive (CTO) lesions show low patency rates in patents with multiple independent risk factors for patency loss. However, patients without risk factors achieved acceptable patency rates and clinical outcomes of freedom from clinically driven target lesion revascularization, reoclussion… View more
