The use of the radial artery as an approach to percutaneous coronary interventions is becoming increasing popular now. The success of this approach depends on both the accumulated experience of an operator and a health care facility. The paper analyzes an investigation of the comparative characteris...

A 71-year-old man with acute coronary syndrome was found to have multiple severe calcified stenoses in the dominant left circumflex coronary artery. After lesion preparation, the distal lesion was stented. A stent was advanced in the proximal lesion and inflated, but during the deployment inflation,...

Background Fasting before elective or nonurgent coronary angiography is commonly recommended to reduce the risk of adverse events, such as aspiration pneumonia. This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to evaluate the impact of fasting versus nonfasting protocols on patient outcomes and satisf...

Aim. To study prevalence of resistance to acetylsalicylic acid, clopidogrel and dual resistance in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), to identify clinical risk factors of resistance development, to study effects of concomitant therapy on resistance development, to identify relationship betwee...

Frequency and timing of appearance of myocardial ischemia, including silent ischemia, were analyzed in published scientific sources. Silent myocardial ischemia is risk factor for stent restenosis after percutaneous coronary interventions. Patients with silent ischemia lack clinical symptoms while pe...

Aim. To assess the results of endovascular revascularisation in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and ST segment elevation (STEMI), in regard to the presence of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM-2), in the real-world clinical settings. Material and methods. The study included 423 STEMI pati...

Managing acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in end-stage renal failure (ESRF) patients poses challenges, particularly the risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This case highlights the successful use of iodixanol, an iso-osmolar contrast agent, in...

The possibility of atorvastatin in reducing the risk of periprocedural myocardial infarction and other cardiovascular events in patients with percutaneous coronary intervention is discussed.

Background The optimal management strategy for in‐stent restenosis (ISR) remains unclear. We aimed to determine the safety and efficacy of percutaneous coronary intervention with XIENCE cobalt chromium everolimus‐eluting stents (EES) for treatment of ISR. Methods In the ILUMIEN IV (Optical Coherence...

Currently, it is proved that physical training (FT) should be a compulsory component of programmes for complex rehabilitation of patients with coronary heart disease after PCI. However, given the heterogeneity of clinical status of patients after conducting PCI medical rehabilitation should be perso...

Aim. The study was aimed at verifying a hypothesis: in myocardial infarction (MI) patients with occluded MI‑related coronary artery (IMCA), routine percutaneous coronary intervention is more effective than conservative, pharmacological treatment, for reducing cumulative total mortality risk, risk of...

Background. Eptifibatide achieves high local concentration via direct intracoronary (I/V) injection as it promotes clot disaggregation, but it remains unclear if it is of superior benefit than the routine intravenous (I/V) administration. Aim. The current study aimed to examine the safety and effica...
