Paclitaxel drug-eluting balloons (pDEB) could be an attractive option to minimise side branch (SB) restenosis in bifurcated coronary lesions. We compared angiographic and clinical outcomes with pDEB plus bare metal stent (BMS) versus stents (DES) de novo lesions.This multicentre randomised trial included 108 patients. Sequential main (MB)/SB dilatation pDEB, provisional T-stenting BMS the MB was performed group, everolimus DES group. The primary endpoint late lumen loss (LLL) at nine months....
Optimal deployment of coronary stents in a bifurcation lesion remains matter debate.We sought to capture the daily practice stenting by means worldwide registry and investigate how post-implantation techniques influence clinical outcomes.Data from e-ULTIMASTER were used perform an analysis 4,395 patients undergoing percutaneous intervention for lesions. Inverse probability treatment weights (IPTW) propensity score methodology was adjust any baseline differences. The primary outcome interest...
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the leading cause of death worldwide, according to recent reports from World Health Organization (WHO). This fact encourages research into cardiovascular system (CVS) multiple and different points view than those given by medical perspective, highlighting among them computational mathematical models that involve experiments much simpler less expensive be performed in comparison with vivo or vitro heart experiments. However, CVS is a complex needs...
Drug-eluting stents (DES) are considered the therapy of choice in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI); however, a low persistent rate revascularizations and stent thrombosis exist over time. We have previously shown that paclitaxel (PTX)-drug-coated balloon (DCB) after bare-metal (BMS) implantation (DCB-combined strategy) yields superior angiographic clinical results compared to BMS short term. However, long-term safety efficacy this approach remain uncertain.An 8-year...
Background —RS morphology of the unipolar electrogram is associated with propagation wave front through exploring electrode, whereas positive uniphasic (R) electrograms are characteristic end activation. Methods and Results —Unipolar were recorded in 45 consecutive patients atrial flutter who undergoing radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Bidirectional cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) block was achieved 44 patients. The obtained before RFA at low anterolateral right atrium during coronary sinus pacing...
Our aim was to assess the safety and efficacy of paclitaxel-eluting balloon (PTX-B) treatment after bare metal stent (BMS) implantation in patients undergoing primary angioplasty.After BMS implantation, were randomised (1:1) with a PTX-B or no (BMS group). The endpoint in-stent late luminal loss (LLL) at nine-month follow-up. OCT carried out on first 20% consecutive included study. Two hundred twenty-three (BMS: 112, PTX-B: 111). At nine months, median LLL 0.80 mm (interquartile range [IQR]...
Morphology of Far‐Field Electrograms and ATP Effectiveness Introduction Fast ventricular tachycardias (FVT) are less likely to be terminated by antitachycardia pacing (ATP). No information is available regarding the ability far‐field electrogram (Ff‐EG) morphology (Ff‐EGm) in predicting result subsequent ATP. Our objective determine relationship between Ff‐EGm efficacy. Methods Results In this multicenter study we analyzed 289 FVT (cycle length [CL]: 250–320 milliseconds) occurring...
Abstract Objectives : We sought to explore the immediate results of Titan2 ® stent implantation in small coronary arteries, as well incidence major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at six months follow‐up. Background The safety has been confirmed several studies real‐life unselected populations. Methods enrolled 311 consecutive patients admitted for percutaneous intervention least one significant (50%) de novo lesion a native artery (2.0–2.75 mm). All lesions were treated with implantation....
