The ESC Guidelines represent the views of and were produced after careful consideration scientific medical knowledge evidence available at time their publication.The is not responsible in event any contradiction, discrepancy and/or ambiguity between other official recommendations or guidelines issued by relevant public health authorities, particular relation to good use healthcare therapeutic strategies.Health professionals are encouraged take fully into account when exercising clinical...
Bifurcation lesions represent a distinct lesion subset associated with an increased risk of procedural complications. Data on the incidence, treatment, and outcome bifurcation chronic total occlusions are limited.Among occlusion procedures performed by single experienced operator, patients within vessel side branch reference diameter greater than or equal to 2.0 mm were enrolled.A 905 (mean age 61.1±9.5 years, men 89.4%) treated for 922 lesions. Among these, 244 observed (26.5%). The time...
Egypt is the most populous country in Middle East and North Africa has more than 15% of cardiovascular deaths region, but little known about prevalence traditional risk factors treatment strategies acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients across Egypt.From November 2015 to August 2017, data were collected from 1 681 with ACS 30 care centres, covering 11 governorates Egypt, spanning Mediterranean coast, Nile Delta Upper a focus on management strategies.Women constituted 25% patients. Premature...
SYNTAX score II (SS II) integrates anatomical SS with clinical characteristics allowing an individualized prediction of long-term mortality. We sought to assess evaluate the usefulness in a real-world acute coronary syndromes (ACS) population severe artery disease (CAD) undergoing percutaneous intervention (PCI). From August 2011 May 2013, out 1591 consecutive patients admitted for ACS, 217 (13.6%) showed CAD (three-vessel and/or left main involvement). Among latter, 100 underwent PCI and...
Purpose:To report a prospective feasibility study of Cutting Balloon angioplasty (CBA) applied in the predilation phase carotid artery stenting (CAS) highly calcified lesions. Methods:From January 2003 to February 2007, 178 consecutive patients (109 men; mean age 73.1±7.3 years) with lesions underwent CAS CBA as pre-specified strategy procedure. All steps procedure were performed under cerebral filter protection. The cutting balloon ranged diameter from 3 4 mm and was inflated at nominal...
Little are known about the prevalence of atherosclerosis risk factors in Egyptian patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS).Describe these focus on gender-specific data and premature presentation.From November 2015 to August 2018, were collected from 3224 ACS 30 care centers covering 11 governorates across Egypt, ACS.The vast majority males (74%) most prevalent age group was (56-65 years) representing 37% whole study population. Among female patients, 92% post-menopausal. The 51%. Forty...
Background Among the Egyptian population with essential hypertension, a minority are under control (systolic pressure <140 mmHg and diastolic <90 mmHg), despite use of multiple antihypertensive medications. In this article, we describe our experience percutaneous treatment using renal artery radiofrequency (RF) ablation . Objectives To evaluate feasibility, efficacy, safety catheter‐based sympathetic denervation for resistant hypertension in patients Methods Patients unresponsive to at...
Stem cell therapy is a promising approach for the treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D). Previous studies recommended regular exercise control T1D. Experimental showed that combination stem cells and yielded better outcome. Yet, effect programs following transplantation in patients with T1D has not been investigated. Thus, current study aimed to examine combined program on measures glycemic who received autologous bone marrow (ABMSCT). Thirty controlled were assigned into two equal...
To evaluate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of ABSORB BVS (Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold) for treatment de novo native coronary artery stenosis. Thirty patients with ischemic heart disease were selected between September 2012 December received significant Patients followed up six months after procedure. In each patient, treated segment periscaffold segments (5 mm proximal distal to scaffold edge) analyzed by Quantitative angiography (QCA) phased-array intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)...
Objective: Early treatment of acute ischemia the heart by performing immediate percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to restore blood flow in patients with clinical presentation an syndrome and more specifically ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) can save lives. This study aims identify mean time (door balloon first contact time) primary PCI for STEMI assess percentage its success rate Egypt. Methods: A registry presenting cardiac centers Egypt was designed, where patients’ basic...
Heart failure (HF) is a common cause of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. Despite advances in treatment, the prognosis remains poor. Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors decrease HF events by 27–39% high-risk patients with type diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Moreover, DAPA-HF EMPEROR-Reduced studies randomized reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) or without to receive guideline-directed medical therapy versus plus an SGLT-2 inhibitor. Both showed benefits inhibitors. In...

The newer generation of Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold ABSORB (BVS 1.1) showed better outcome in regard to scaffold area reduction as a result improved design and enhanced polymer processing. To assess the safety efficacy treating significant native coronary artery stenosis using BVS. Ninety-nine patients with de novo were selected between September 2012 2014 treated For each patient, target peri-scaffold segments (5 mm proximal distal edge) analyzed by Quantitative Coronary Angiography...
To evaluate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of MitraClip system in patients with severe MR. Mitral valve repair for mitral regurgitation (MR) has been performed by use a surgically created double orifice. Percutaneous based on this surgical approach developed device. Five 3 to 4+ MR were selected accordance American Heart Association/American College Cardiology guidelines between March 2013 May underwent percutaneous 6 months follow up after procedure. The primary acute endpoint was...
