Introducción: El acceso radial se ha asociado a numerosos beneficios en angioplastia coronaria comparación con el femoral. Sin embargo, múltiples registros internacionales han reportado una escasa adherencia esta técnica. Objetivos: Evaluar la seguridad, eficacia y eficiencia operativa de según vía utilizada cuadro clínico del paciente. Métodos:Análisis registro,unicéntrico retrospectivo los pacientes enfermedad tratados desde marzo 2009 junio 2018,según vascular.Se aplicó un modelo...
An innovative stenting technique to treat a difficult case of fusiform aneurysm the intracranial vertebral artery (VA), with restoration vessel lumen, is described.A 58-year-old patient experienced sudden pain in upper cervical spine, followed by severe headache. He underwent computed tomographic evaluation, which demonstrated subarachnoid hemorrhage prepontine cistern. A distal right VA and critical stenosis left were detected digital subtraction angiograms. The new hemorrhaging episode,...
Abstract Objectives To report clinical, angiographic characteristics, outcomes, and predictors of unsuccessful procedures in patients who underwent chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) Latin America. Background CTO PCI has been increasingly performed worldwide, but there is a lack information this region. Methods An international multicenter registry was developed to collect data on centers Patient, angiographic, procedural outcome were evaluated....
Objective Cigarette smokers have an unexplained low mortality following ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI). Our aim was to determine whether the presence of active smoking has a beneficial effect on reperfusion primary percutaneous intervention (PCI). Methods A total 140 STEMI patients treated with PCI were included in analysis. All 24-h monitoring, each analyzed by independent, blinded core laboratory. We divided population according status: (n = 56) and nonactive 84)....
To inform about contemporary PCI practice of in-stent (IS) chronic total occlusions (CTO) from a large international registry in Latin America.IS-CTO represent distinctive challenge for PCI, but literature is limited and restricted to high-resource regions the world.Patients undergoing CTO enrolled LATAM 42 centers eight countries were included. We analyzed demographics, angiographic, procedure technique, success postprocedural outcomes between IS-CTO non-IS-CTO PCI.From 1,565 patients was...
To evaluate the outcomes of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with and without prior artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.Data on CTO PCI versus CABG remains limited scarce representation from developing regions like Latin America.We evaluated undergoing 42 centers participating LATAM registry between 2008 2020. Statistical analyses were stratified according to status. The interest technical procedural success in-hospital major adverse cardiac...
OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE An innovative stenting technique to treat a difficult case of fusiform aneurysm the intracranial vertebral artery (VA), with restoration vessel lumen, is described. CLINICAL PRESENTATION A 58-year-old patient experienced sudden pain in upper cervical spine, followed by severe headache. He underwent computed tomographic evaluation, which demonstrated subarachnoid hemorrhage prepontine cistern. distal right VA and critical stenosis left were detected digital...
Inadequate stent implantation is associated with thrombosis and restenosis. StentBoost can enhance visualization evaluate expansion. Currently, there are limited comparison studies between intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). We aimed to test the correlation agreement IVUS measurements. From December 2010 2011, 38 patients (54 stents) were analyzed using StentBoost. Minimal diameter proximal distal edge compared imaging techniques Pearson Bland–Altman scatter plot. There was good measurements...
Abstract Background Guide catheter extensions (GCEs) increase support and facilitate equipment delivery, but aggressive instrumentation may be associated with a higher risk of complications. Aim Our aim was to assess the impact GCEs on procedural success complications in patients submitted chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods We analyzed data from multicenter LATAM CTO Registry. Procedural defined as <30% residual stenosis TIMI 3 distal flow....
The aim of this study was to determine whether the presence collateral circulation had a beneficial effect following primary angioplasty. In all, 114 patients who underwent angioplasty were included. Patients with lower basal ST-segment deviation (P = .004), white cell count ( P .001), peak creatine kinase and regional wall motion score values .03) than without circulation. After procedure, group collaterals associated higher rates normal myocardial blush, complete ST resolution, shorter...
Background Coronary perforation is a life-threatening complication of acute percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusions (CTO), but data on midterm outcomes are limited. Methods and Results Data from LATAM (Latin American)-CTO Registry (57 centers; 9 countries) were analyzed. We assessed the risk 30-day, 1-year major adverse cardiac events using time-to-event weighted composite end point analysis having CTO PCI without as comparators. Additionally, we studied...
Background The relationship of the ischemic time to primary angioplasty and quality myocardial reperfusion according infarcted territory among patients with ST-segment elevation infarction (STEMI) is unclear. Methods This study consisted 140 STEMI within 12 h from symptom onset undergoing a Protection Distal Embolization in High-Risk Patients Acute ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Trial. resolution (STR) at 60 min was analyzed by an independent corelab using continuous ST...
Women have higher risk of contrast-induced nephropathy than men. The purpose this study was to determine the relative impact gender on long-term renal function after percutaneous interventions (PRI).We included all patients undergoing PRI. Men (n = 72) and women 28) had similar age, men more diabetes, coronary peripheral artery disease, serum creatinine glomerular filtration rate (GFR), prevalence chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage > or =3 when compared with females. At follow-up, a...
We report the time to stable ST-segment reperfusion (TSTR) after primary angioplasty and its relationship with clinical results; 137 patients who underwent were included as part of analysis. All had 24 hours monitoring. Time STR was defined beginning (STR) lasting >4 without reelevation. Six-month mortality associated slower TSTR (median 166.5 vs 6 minute, P = .001). cutoff value 136.5 minutes identified best predictor (area under curve: 0.86, Multivariate analysis Killip class ≥2 (P...
