This study investigates the hemodynamics of a dual-orifice mitral valve after mitral valve clip closure (MVCC) in patients with functional and nonfunctional mitral regurgitation (MR). If inflow velocity-time integral (VTi) of both orifices is...

Severe radial artery spasm (RAS) and tortuosity may hinder guide catheter advancement and manipulation, requiring the arterial access site to be changed. We describe the safety and the effectiveness of a technique designed to facilitate guide...

The treatment of a coronary bifurcation with a single stent (the provisional stenting technique) is associated with a good outcome in most cases. In the majority of cases, after provisional stenting technique, a residual significant...

In STEMI, infarct size (IS) directly correlates with major cardiovascular outcomes. Preclinical models demonstrate mechanical LV unloading before reperfusion reduces IS. The door-to-unload (DTU)-STEMI pilot trial evaluated the safety and...

Fractional flow reserve (FFR) has been established as the gold standard in the physiological assessment of coronary obstructions severity. However, the need to insert an intracoronary pressure guidewire is a factor that limits its use....

Although a distal radial artery (DRA) approach has recently been used in patients undergoing cardiac catheterization, no studies have so far investigated the safety and feasibility of DRA in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). We aimed to...

MitraClip implantation requires transseptal puncture and the creation of an iASD. There are relatively rare instances, such as hemodynamically significant shunting or concerns for embolus, where iASD must be closed during index procedure. In...
