🫀NEW GUIDELINE🫀
Read our new #ASEGuideline, "Guidelines for the Intraprocedural Imaging for Mitral Valve Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair!" https://t.co/mPEUDziCfD
This review explores the clinical challenges and procedural complexities associated with ostial right coronary artery (RCA) lesions, which suffer from higher failure rates than other coronary obstructions.
“#Gaza: children are starving.
The Government of Israel continues to block the entry of food and other basics.
A manmade and politically motivated starvation.
Nearly 2 months of siege.
Calls to bring in supplies are going unheeded.”

In this large, propensity-matched cohort of TAVI patients, only invasively measured postprocedural aortic gradients—not echocardiography-derived gradients—were independently associated with 30-day, 1- and 2-year mortality. These results suggest that invasive assessment may provide superior prognostic information compared to echo-derived gradients following TAVI.

ARC-DCB now published in EuroIntervention. This consensus sought to standardize study designs and endpoints for clinical trials involving drug-coated balloons, including defining angiographic, intravascular, and non-invasive imaging methods for lesion assessment, alongside considerations for post-revascularization pharmaco-therapy. https://t.co/ZCuqXlJmtv
The study sounds good but, concerns including its internal case-control design, potential selection bias, lack of external validation, and limited adjustment for patient-level factors.
EMERALD II: Higher luminal stenosis, plague burden & pressure drop across the lesion were associated w/ shorter test-to-acute coronary syndrome event time, w/ prognostic impact more pronounced within a two-year period.

This consensus provides standardized definitions for bifurcation lesions; the criteria to judge the side branch relevance; the procedural, mechanistic, and clinical endpoints for every type of bifurcation study; and the follow-up methods.
