Stent failure remains the major drawback to use of coronary stents as a revascularization strategy. Recent advances in imaging have substantially improved our understanding mechanisms underlying these occurrences, which common numerous clinical risk factors and mechanical elements at time stent implantation. In-stent restenosis problem despite improvements in-stent design polymer coatings over past 2 decades. It generates significant health care cost is associated with an increased death...

Background: There is a paucity of data regarding acute myocardial infarction (MI) complicated by cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS) in the Gulf region. This study addressed this knowledge gap examining patients experiencing AMI-CS region and analyzing hospital short-term follow-up mortality. Methods: The Gulf-Cardiogenic Shock registry included 1,513 with diagnosed between January 2020 December 2022. Results: incidence was 4.1% (1,513/37,379). median age 60 years. most common presentation...

Using the SYNTAX score (SS) for decision-making between percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and artery bypass graft (CABG) left main (LMCA) revascularization is under scrutiny. This study investigated clinical outcomes of LMCA stratified by SS. multicenter included 2138 patients recruited 2015 2020 who underwent disease using PCI or CABG were categorized based on their SS into three groups: low (≤22), intermediate (23–32), high (≥33). Patients with a compared those an experienced...

Abstract Background Cardiogenic shock (CS) secondary to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major cause of in-hospital mortality. With the addition right ventricular dysfunction (RVD), it associated with poorer outcomes. This study examines impact RVD on mortality in CS-AMI patients, highlighting importance early identification and tailored management. Methods Data from Gulf Shock (Gulf-CS) registry—a multicenter registry patients six countries—were analyzed compare long-term outcomes for...

Abstract Background In the randomized AMIHOT‐II trial, supersaturated oxygen [SSO 2 ] delivered into left anterior descending (LAD) artery via an indwelling intracoronary infusion catheter following primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) significantly reduced infarct size in patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) but resulted a numerically higher incidence of safety events. Objectives The IC‐HOT study evaluated SSO therapy selectively to main (LMCA) for 60...

Abstract Background Supersaturated oxygen (SSO 2 ) has recently been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for administration after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) in patients with anterior ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) based on its demonstration of infarct size reduction IC‐HOT study. Objectives To describe 1‐year clinical outcomes intracoronary SSO treatment pPCI STEMI. Methods was a prospective, open‐label, single‐arm study which 100...

Abstract This paper aims to introduce a new multilevel inverter topology less number of switches and gate drivers with hybrid control method. In the proposed three kinds voltage sources are utilized in topology. A combination these sources, switches, two H-bridges derived Moreover, combining nearest level pulse width modulation created an efficient way which is described this paper. Equations determine components total standing presented. comprehensive comparison between other best...
