Proximal Protection Devices and Flow Reversal for Embolic Protection
Carotid artery disease leading to stroke is one of the primary causes of serious longterm disability in the United States today. Currently, carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is the gold standard to reduce the risk of stroke in both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients. This has been borne out in large, multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trials. For symptomatic patients, the North Ameri...
متن کاملEmbolic protection devices.
Percutaneous intervention for the treatment of coronary and peripheral atherosclerotic disease has become a well established technique, and has been recently extended also to the carotid arena. However, distal embolisation of particulate matter, including plaque debris such as fibrin, necrotic atheromatous core, foam cells, cholesterol clefts, and thrombus, at the time of balloon inflation or s...

M anipulation of atherosclerotic lesions with wires, cath-eters, balloons, stents, and other intravascular devices during invasive procedures releases atherosclerotic plaque, resulting in distal embolization. This plaque debris leads to no or slow flow as a result of a multitude of factors, including mechanical obstruction of macrovascular and microvascu-lar channels, local platelet adhesion, p...
متن کاملProximal versus distal embolic protection for carotid artery stenting: a national cardiovascular data registry analysis.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare the stroke/death rates between proximal embolic protection devices (P-EPDs) and distal filter embolic protection devices (F-EPDs) in elective carotid artery stenting (CAS). BACKGROUND P-EPDs have theoretical advantages that may make them superior to F-EPDs for stroke prevention during CAS. METHODS We examined 10,246 consecutive elective CAS pr...
متن کاملEmbolic Protection in Femoropopliteal Artery Intervention
F emoropopliteal occlusive disease is a major contributor to claudication and critical limb ischemia and is present in 20% to 40% of patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD). As the population ages and technology advances, the number of endovascular treatments performed for femoropopliteal lesions is expected to increase. Endovascular recanalization and treatment of the superficial femor...
