<h3>Objective:</h3> To obtain a "snapshot" view of access-specific percutaneous cardiovascular procedures outcomes in the real world. <h3>Design:</h3> Multicentre, prospective study performed over 30-day period. <h3>Setting:</h3> Nine hospitals with invasive cardiology facilities, reflecting contemporary state healthcare. <h3>Patients:</h3> Unselected consecutive sample patients undergoing any procedure requiring an arterial access. <h3>Interventions:</h3> Percutaneous by radial or femoral...
It is still controversial whether sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) and paclitaxel-eluting (PES) are equally effective in patients with diabetes. In these patients, multiple individual variables may be responsible for neointimal hyperplasia, thus making difficult the comparison of two drug-eluting stents (DES).We designed a prospective, randomized study to compare efficacy prevention restenosis SES PES, both implanted same diabetic patient de novo coronary artery lesions undergoing elective...
To assess: the reasons behind an operator choosing to perform radial artery catheterisation (RAC) as against femoral arterial catheterisation, and explore why RAC may fail in real world.
Objectives To evaluate the feasibility and safety of percutaneous closure complex secundum‐type atrial septal defects (ASD) in patients with posterior‐inferior rim deficiency. Background Transcatheter approach is method choice for ASD closure; however, up to now 20% are not considered suitable intervention because lack surrounding rims, especially posterior‐inferior. Methods A total 268 were evaluated between March 2005 April 2011 closure. Twenty‐four (9%) a referred surgery due inadequate...
Polymer-free biolimus-eluting stents (PF-BES) have been shown to be superior bare metal in high bleeding risk (HBR) patients treated with one-month dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). However, limited evidence is available on PF-BES non-HBR patients. We aimed evaluate the safety and efficacy of all-comer undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Patients stable artery disease or acute syndromes (ACS) PCI routine clinical practice were included a multicentre, prospective registry....
The aim of this observational study was to compare acute and 12-month results percutaneous closure patent foramen ovale (PFO) with two occluder devices.Between June 2007 October 2014, 406 consecutive patients (48.1±13.3 years, 243 women) underwent PFO either the AMPLATZER (n=179) or Figulla (n=227) device after a stroke transient ischaemic attack ascribed PFO. A right-to-left shunt grade >1 previously detected in all atrial septal aneurysm present 111 (27.5%) patients. Patients were followed...
Abstract Despite technological evolution, percutaneous coronary interventions targeting calcifications remain challenging and associated with high rates of complications adverse outcomes. Over the years, rotational atherectomy has emerged as reference treatment calcified artery lesions despite some inherent limitations. Also, typically requires relatively large guiding catheters which may unfavorably impact on decision for transradial access, especially when radial is small, consequently...
Abstract Objectives This study aimed at assessing the performance of a new generation polymer‐free biolimus‐eluting stent (BES) in real‐world patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Background Polymers components early‐generation drug‐eluting stents have been implicated pathogenesis delayed arterial healing, vessel remodeling, and thrombosis. Recently, novel BES has shown excellent clinical trial setting. Methods Overall, 175 consecutive (64 ± 14 years, 141 men)...
We present the complex case of a high-risk patient with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, who experienced non-ST elevation myocardial infarction complicated by left ventricular (LV) thrombi and underwent percutaneous coronary intervention drug-eluting stent implantation. The was initially treated short-term triple therapy including aspirin, clopidogrel, rivaroxaban 15 mg/die. Following aspirin dropping one month after discharge, continued on dual clopidogrel rivaroxaban, clinical imaging...
