This analysis from the #BioVasc trial compares immediate complete revascularisation (ICR) with staged complete revascularisation (SCR) in patients with STEMI and multivessel disease. The study indicates that ICR and SCR provide similar clinical outcomes at 1 year. Additionally, ICR is associated with shorter hospital stays, offering potential benefits to the healthcare system. These results help refine treatment strategies for STEMI patients, balancing immediate intervention and long-term outcomes.

This international, multicentre, randomized controlled ULTRACOLOR Trial compared ultrasound-guided versus fluoroscopy-guided large-bore femoral access in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of complex coronary lesions. Key Results: 🔹 Ultrasound-guided access demonstrated a significantly higher first-pass puncture success rate (92% vs. 85%). 🔹 No significant reduction in clinically relevant bleeding or vascular complications between the two methods. 🔹 Comparable procedural duration and safety outcomes, supporting the feasibility and safety of ultrasound-guided access Read the full article: https://shorturl.at/a1sJ4 Tom Meijers Editorial by Sanjit Jolly and Marc-André d'Entremont: https://shorturl.at/YVegt #Cardiology #ClinicalResearch #PCI

- Durability of transcatheter aortic valve implantation - This state-of-the-art review examines the incidence, risk factors, and mechanisms of bioprosthetic valve dysfunction and failure. It indicates that TAVI, a less invasive procedure, offers comparable durability to SAVR, even in younger and lower-risk populations.

This #EIJBestOf Expert Review from the European CTO Club detailed advanced strategies for PCI in heavily calcified chronic total occlusions, emphasizing the importance of diagnostic imaging and tailored therapeutic approaches. Key tools included high tip-load guidewires, microcatheters, and intravascular lithotripsy. #Cardiology #CTO #PCI https://shorturl.at/KIbWq Kambis Mashayekhi - Carlo Di Mario
