This State-of-the-Art review provides a comprehensive and practical overview of coronary interventions related to TAVI, encompassing coronary evaluation and physiological assessment, the indications and timing of percutaneous coronary intervention before and after valve implantation, and strategies for managing coronary obstruction. eurointervention.pcronline.c…

Higher #TAVR device implantation was linked to improved outcomes with similar safety events, including valve migration, across implantation depths. Long-term effects, including redo-TAVR feasibility, need further study. jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jcin.… #EuroPCR #JACCINT

NEW SIMULTANEOUS PUBLICATION #EuroPCR NOW ONLINE 🔥 Early haemodynamic valve deterioration (HVD) after TAVI was observed in 3.1% of patients in this large multicentre registry and was independently associated with reduced valve-related clinical efficacy, stroke, bioprosthetic valve dysfunction, and valve failure during follow-up.

BATMAN was assoc w/ high technical success, effectiveness in preventing #LVOT obstruction, & appeared to be safe in ViR & ViV procedures. Adverse events were higher in ViMAC, according to an LBCT presented at #EuroPCR & simultaneously published in #JACCINT jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jcin.…

🔥 #EuroPCR 2026 Major Late-Breaking Trials🔥:  Long-term mortality following PCI with DES versus CABG for left main disease An individual participant data meta-analysis of the SYNTAX, PRECOMBAT, NOBLE and EXCEL trials presented by Brian Bergmark showed no significant difference in all-cause mortality between DES PCI and CABG over 10-year follow-up in patients with left main coronary artery disease suitable for revascularisation.

What effects do LBBB, RBBB and LVH with repolarization abnormalities have on exercise stress testing interpretation? 🔴 LBBB → ST changes are unreliable due to abnormal repolarization. False-positive ST depressions may appear in V5-V6, I, aVL. Instead, use nuclear stress imaging or stress echo for accurate assessment. 🔵 RBBB → Less impact than LBBB, but ST-T changes in V1-V3 are not ischemic. Focus on inferolateral leads (V5-V6, II, III, aVF, I, aVL) for valid ischemia detection. 🟢 LVH with repolarization abnormalities → ST depressions & T-wave inversions (strain pattern) are common, especially in lateral leads (I, aVL, V5-V6). These changes often lead to false positives, making imaging crucial for confirmation.

Burr entrapment, one of the most feared complications in rotational atherectomy. Multiple bailouts, choice driven by operator experience. Algorithms help organize the toolbox, especially for less experienced operators. My usual path: step (2) vasodilator gentle pull (solves most), then (5) wire balloon next to the burr or (6) knuckle wire for the resistant ones. With step (3), skipping rope, a newer iterative technique, I'll probably start following this more logical sequence. #CHIP #Rotablator #RA #atherectomy #entrapment

Coronary slow flow is not diagnostic of microvascular dysfunction in patients with angina and unobstructed coronary arteries. Coronary physiology interrogation has debunked one of the fallacies of the last decades.

New Journal Club review: NOBLE 10-year outcomes of PCI vs CABG in left main disease 🔗pcronline.com/PCR-Publicatio… Long-term evidence comparing PCI and CABG for unprotected left main coronary disease has been limited and sometimes conflicting. The 10-year results from the NOBLE trial now provide important clarity on all-cause mortality outcomes with both revascularisation strategies.
