Join Bailey Ann Richardson, NP-C, RNFA, CNOR, RCIS, and Drs Morton Kern and Arnold Seto, in a Society of Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) 2025 Annual Meeting discussion that highlights four trials across the interventional cardiology spectrum, from CTO stenting vs non-stenting clinical outcomes to operator safety and system-level practice patterns.
Topics include the comparative outcomes of stented versus non-stented chronic total occlusion (CTO) patients; the orthopedic risks faced by cath lab operators wearing traditional lead protection versus novel lead-free systems in the prospective ERGO-CATH study; procedural volume trends and outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in ambulatory surgery centers within the Medicare population; and the etiology, management, and outcomes in patients with SCAI Stage B cardiogenic shock.
