Reducing Radiation in Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Interventions
The field of percutaneous intervention for chronic total occlusion (CTO) has enjoyed significant innovations in the recent years. Novel techniques and technologies have revolutionized the field and have resulted in considerably higher success rates even in patients with high anatomical complexity. Successful CTO recanalization is associated with significant clinical benefits, such as the improv...
متن کاملRadiation Safety During Interventions of Coronary Chronic Total Occlusion
During percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO), prolonged procedures increase the risk of excessive radiation exposure. These situations harbor a major concern to protect patients and personnel in the cardiac interventional laboratory (CCL). Important questions regarding radiation safety for interventional cardiologists performing PCI for CTO lesions are disc...
متن کاملChronic total coronary occlusion percutaneous intervention.
Chronic total coronary occlusions (CTO) are encountered frequently, found in up to 50% of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) referred for elective angiography. Treatment strategy for an individual patient is often changed on the basis of the presence or absence of a CTO (1). Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of CTO remains challenging, with observed success rates that are signif...
متن کاملDevelopments in coronary chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary interventions: 2014 state-of-the-art update.
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of chronic total occlusions (CTOs) is a rapidly developing field. In the present review, we summarize the most important CTO PCI related literature published in 2013.
متن کاملSubintimal dissection/reentry strategies in coronary chronic total occlusion interventions.
Subintimal dissection/reentry techniques are increasingly being used for crossing coronary chronic total occlusions both antegradely (using a knucle wire or the Bridgepoint system) or retrogradely (using the controlled antegrade and retrograde tracking and dissection, and reverse controlled antegrade and retrograde tracking and dissection technique). Subintimal dissection/reentry techniques can...
