This report presents a case of distal radial artery pseudoaneurysm following cardiac catheterization and its successful endovascular management: https://lnkd.in/emzf4v7m

So good talking with Janarthanan Sathananthan, MD, FSCAI and learning about drug-coated balloons' potential to revolutionize in-stent restenosis treatment in the US. Check it out!

In patients who are set to undergo #TAVR and are at-risk for #coronary obstruction, the ShortCut leaflet modification device is safe and achieves success in leaflet splitting, and is associated with positive clinical outcomes, a new study shows.

Coronary angiography is an invasive examination in which a cardiac catheter is delivered to the root of the aorta via the radial artery, femoral artery, or brachial artery (most commonly via the radial artery), inserted into the left and right coronary artery orifices, and contrast agent is injected to visualize the coronary arteries and their main branches.

Oral anticoagulants should be paused for #TAVI, authors of the POPular PAUSE TAVI trial say, after finding patients on continued anticoagulation had bleeding but no relevant differences in thromboembolic events.

Discover the remarkable results of the third-generation laser balloon ablation system (X3) for pulmonary vein isolation in atrial fibrillation treatment: • High Efficiency: 91.1% of veins isolated on the first attempt without touch-up ablation. • Outstanding Outcomes: 93.7% SVT-free survival rate for paroxysmal AF patients at one year. • Enhanced Safety: No major complications were observed, demonstrating the system's excellent safety profile. These findings highlight the X3 system's effectiveness and safety, making it a game-changer in AF treatment. 👉 Read the complete study here. https://ow.ly/ivjU50SxZrG CardioFocus #X3Vision #epeeps #AFIB

Today's Cardiac Wire wrapped up yet another big week in #cardiology. Here's some of the biggest stories from Cardiac Wire #168 - Cardiology’s Industry Payments Problem (KFF Health News, Sanket Dhruva) - IVUS Beats Angiography - Rock Health’s Q1 2024 Recap - Complete Revascularization Debatable (Felix Böhm) - Ticagrelor Beats DAPT After 1mo - App Directs Patients to Statins - Sphere-360 Shines in PFA Trial (Medtronic, Khaldoun Tarakji, MD MPH) - Shorter TAVR Hospital Stays (Derk Frank) - The ApoC3 Inhibitor Race (Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals, Brian Bergmark, Christie Ballantyne MD) - Sharp Growth in CAC Scoring - AFib Ablation with a SMARTTOUCH (Biosense Webster, Mattias Duytschaever) https://lnkd.in/gBCrt36V

A patient of 65 years old today submitted to minimally invasive aortic replacements with a Resilia Tessue valve. 44 min of cross clamp a time, sinus rhythm. 4 hours of intubation time and 2 hours of operative room time. We analized our experience in the 2023 and we performed more than 200 isolated minimally invasive aortic replacement. Mortality 0%, post operative leaks 0%, post op pace maker 0%, in hospital stay 5 days. It’s time in my opinion to review the data of partner 2 considering the evolution of the new surgical techniques. Does it still make sense to talk about TAVI in low-risk patients with such results?

A cost-consequence analysis comparing three cardiac ablation strategies for the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation: overall, the cumulative savings associated with #PulsedFieldAblation (excluding kit costs) were €850 and €1,301 per patient compared to cryoballoon ablation and radiofrequency ablation, respectively.

In June we feature our Neuroradiology Division. In patients with intracranial atherosclerotic arterial stenosis treated with angioplasty and stent placement, procedural ischemic events may limit interventions relative to best medical therapy, suggesting that investigation to improve endovascular devices and techniques may be required to make angioplasty and stent placement safer and more effective, particularly for the benefit of patients with severe intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis who have continued ischemic events despite aggressive medical therapy. https://bit.ly/3Xna5v5 #neuroradiology
