Interventional Cardiologists' Perspectives on Percutaneous Coronary Intervention at Ambulatory Surgical Centers Open
Background The volume of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at ambulatory surgical centers (ASC) is expected to increase. Methods We surveyed US interventional cardiologists with a 58‐question, anonymous online survey to evaluate the…

Intravascular Ultrasound Findings Associated With Hydrodynamic Contrast Recanalization (HDR) of Coronary Chronic Total Occlusions Open
Background Hydrodynamic contrast recanalization (HDR) is a novel technique to facilitate wire crossing during chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). The mechanisms underlying HDR have not been fully descri…

Invasive Versus Conservative Management Among Older Adult Patients With Non–ST‐Segment–Elevation Myocardial Infarction: A Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials Open
Background Older adult patients have been underrepresented in the pivotal trials comparing an invasive versus conservative management for non–ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Methods We performed an electronic search of…

Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Initial United States Experience With FFR<sub>CT</sub> Based Virtual PCI Open
Background Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and CCTA‐derived fractional flow reserve (FFR CT ) based virtual percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can facilitate pre‐procedural planning but there are limited clinical data…

Coronary computed tomography angiography to guide percutaneous coronary intervention: Expert opinion from a SCAI/SCCT roundtable Open
Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) has emerged as an important tool for planning percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). While it has traditionally been employed for diagnostic purposes, increasing evidence and real-world ex…

The Pullback Pressure Gradient Open
Fractional flow reserve is the most widely used physiologic index to establish the functional significance of epicardial coronary artery disease (CAD). Fractional flow reserve guides clinical decisions toward or against coronary revascular…
