What is The Next Step When a Non-Compliant Balloon Does Not Pass through a Freshly Deployed Stent?
In coronary intervention practice, optimal stent deployment in terms of adequate expansion and complete apposition is of paramount importance to obtain favorable immediate and long-term results. Even with the introduction of stent delivery systems based on a semi-compliant balloon allowing stent deployment at higher pressures (≥ 14 atm), adjunctive post dilation with a non-compliant (NC) balloo...
متن کاملWhat is better for predilatation in bioresorbable vascular scaffold implantation: a non-compliant or a compliant balloon?
OBJECTIVE The bioresorbable vascular scaffold system (BVS) is a fully absorbable vascular treatment system. In this study, we aimed to compare the periprocedural effectiveness and long term results of non-compliant balloon (NCB) and compliant balloon (CB) systems, which are used for predilatation before BVS implantation. METHODS One hundred forty-six BVS-treated lesions from 119 patients were...
متن کاملBailout technique to remove a distal protection device (‘Filtrap’) when the retrieval and delivery catheters could not pass through the deployed stent
Although aspiration thrombectomy might be considered only in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) according to the European Society of Cardiology guidelines, small studies showed that aspiration thrombectomy and/or distal embolic protection might be effective to prevent slow flow/no flow during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in non ST-segment elevation myoc...
متن کاملP-value: What is and what is not

In this study, we provided a definition and discussion of p-value and emphasized the importance of its accurate interpretation.
متن کاملWhen patients with rheumatoid arthritis fail tumour necrosis factor inhibitors: what is the next step?
The advent of biological agents in general and tumour necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors in particular has dramatically changed the outcomes and outlooks for patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Not only have they expanded the treatment options in quantitative terms, but their combination with methotrexate (MTX) or other disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) has also led to a quantit...
متن کاملThe Medicare reform debate: what is the next step?
Medicare costs are rising faster than projected revenues. Action to close the emerging deficit is inescapable. We propose converting Medicare from a "service reimbursement" system to a "premium support" system. These changes would resemble many that are now reshaping private employer-based insurance. Our reform would encompass not just the "public" Medicare program but also the "real" Medicare,...
