and an investigator in the VIVID study , which contributed to the device’s FDA approval – successfully used the Duo Venous Stent System for the first time outside of a clinical trial. Duo Hybrid has a distinct integrated design that combines multiple zones of differing mechanical properties into a single stent [3].

The secondary outcomes included ischemia-driven target lesion revascularization, target vessel myocardial infarction, death, cardiac death, target vessel revascularization, stent thrombosis, and major adverse cardiac events. OCT was associated with a significant reduction of stent thrombosis compared with ICA (OR, 0.49 [95% CI, 0.26–0.92])

PTA+DCB, P Key findings include: · One-year primary patency (freedom from both clinically driven target lesion revascularization and duplex ultrasound-derived restenosis) did not differ between groups, despite the significant difference in baseline calcification. · DA+DCB versus 5.9% versus 21.1%, P =0.014). 3 · One-year rates of TLR (16.6%

We aimed ultrasound-guided punctures in the proximal two-thirds of axillary arteries with diameters ≥2 mm to insert 7 cm/4 Fr short introducers. Overall, 27/36 procedures were interventional, including 6 aortic valvuloplasties, 6 balloon angioplasties, and 15 stenting procedures. We administrated intra-arterial verapamil (1.25 mg)

Fortunately, this operator used intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). The operator documented thoughtful consideration of risks and benefits of stent placement. Technically, there was a very narrow landing zone for the stent, and missing this could result in "jailing" the LCx, which is ideally avoided.

The commonest causes of MINOCA include: atherosclerotic causes such as plaque rupture or erosion with spontaneous thrombolysis, and non-atherosclerotic causes such as coronary vasospasm (sometimes called variant angina or Prinzmetal's angina), coronary embolism or thrombosis, possibly microvascular dysfunction.

His ED cardiac ultrasound (which is not at all ideal for detecting wall motion abnormalities, and is also very operator dependent for this finding) was significant for depressed global EF.
