Randomised Comparison of Culotte- versus Double Kissing Crush Stenting in de novo non-left Main Coronary Bifurcation Lesions: Rationale and Design of the Bifurcation Bad Krozingen trial-3 (BBK-3) Open
Whether culotte or double kissing (DK)-crush stenting is the superior systematic 2-stent technique in non-left main bifurcation lesions is unclear. The BBK-3 (unique identifier NCT 04192760) is a multicenter, prospective, randomized contro…

Procedural safety of rotational atherectomy and modified balloon angioplasty: insights from a German national registry Open
Background Modified balloons (MB) and rotational atherectomy (RA) are recommended tools for treatment of coronary plaques with superficial calcium. Knowledge about in-hospital safety is limited. Methods Patients with coronary artery diseas…

Planned versus unplanned rotational atherectomy for plaque modification in severely calcified coronary lesions Open
Background Evidence on the optimal timing of RA is scarce, although increased periprocedural complications for unplanned procedures have been reported. Aims To compare planned versus unplanned use of rotational atherectomy (RA) for plaque …

Procedural outcomes of chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary interventions in patients with acute kidney injury Open
CA-AKI in patients undergoing CTO PCI occurs in approximately one out of 10 patients. Our study highlights that patients developing CA-AKI are at increased risk for long-term MACCE.

Prevalence and Causes of Myocardial Infarction with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries in a Contemporary Cohort of Patients with Suspected Myocardial Infarction Open
Background: A significant proportion of patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction (MI) has no coronary obstruction at coronary angiography and no other obvious non-coronary pathophysiology causing MI. These patients are classifi…

Evaluation of a 1-hour troponin algorithm for diagnosing myocardial infarction in high-risk patients admitted to a chest pain unit: the prospective FAST-MI cohort study Open
Objective This study sought to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the 1-hour troponin algorithm for diagnosis of myocardial infarction (MI) without persistent ST-segment elevations (non-ST-segment MI (NSTEMI)) in a cohort with a high p…
