Transradial approach for percutaneous coronary interventions on chronic total occlusions
The transfemoral approach is the standard approach for performing chronic total occlusion procedures. However, hemorrhagic and vascular entry site complications are known to be reduced by the adoption of the transradial approach. Thus, the transradial approach is gaining interest and, facilitated by the improvement of materials and techniques, will be applied in procedures previously considered...
متن کاملPercutaneous Coronary Intervention for Chronic Total Occlusions
I mpasses are common in everyday life. When they occur in coronary arteries as chronic total occlusions (CTOs), they may be difficult to treat. Successful treatment of CTOs sometimes requires a nonconformist approach based on “negative thinking,” which is described in philosophical circles as the mindset that “negates” the possibility of failure and replaces it with the potentiality of success ...
متن کاملTransradial approach for coronary interventions.
OBJECTIVE To assess the feasibility and safety of coronary interventions performed through the radial artery. METHODS We studied 103 patients with ages from 38 to 86 years (57+/-8.7), 90 (87%) males, and: radial pulse with a good amplitude, presence of ulnar pulse, a good collateral flow through the palmar arch assessed with the Allen's test. RESULTS The vascular approach was obtained in 97...
متن کاملMicrovascular dysfunction in chronic total coronary occlusions.
BACKGROUND Microvascular dysfunction is defined as reduced coronary flow reserve in the absence of an epicardial stenosis. This study determined its prevalence and relation to regional myocardial function in chronic total coronary occlusions (TCO). METHODS AND RESULTS After recanalization and stenting of a TCO (duration, >4 weeks) in 42 patients, coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) was meas...
متن کاملEarly assessment of percutaneous coronary interventions for chronic total occlusions analyzed by novel echocardiographic techniques
OBJECTIVE Successful revascularization of chronic total occlusions has been associated with improved left ventricular systolic function, reduced anginal symptoms, increased exercise capacity, and increased survival. This study was conducted to determine the impact of revascularization in chronic total occlusion on left ventricular function using novel echocardiographic techniques. METHODS A t...
