Mashup Score: 1Studies Highlight Need for Tailored Treatment Options for Women with Peripheral Artery Disease | SCAI - 10 day(s) ago
Long Beach, Calif. – New clinical results highlight the need for inclusive approaches and comprehensive examinations of treatment options for peripheral artery disease (PAD), including endovascular therapy and revascularization. The data were presented today at the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions (SCAI) 2024 Scientific Sessions. Despite a lack of awareness, PAD, in which arteries in the extremities – often the legs – become narrowed, reducing or cutting off blood flow, contributes

Mashup Score: 4Biomimetic Transcatheter Aortic Heart Valve Offers New Option for Aortic Stenosis Patients | SCAI - 10 day(s) ago
Long Beach, Calif. – Recent findings from a study on a transcatheter heart valve (THV) system, which includes a new class of transcatheter aortic valve, showed positive results in the device’s ability to function as a healthy and natural aortic valve in patients with aortic stenosis (AS). The late-breaking data will be presented today at the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions (SCAI) 2024 Scientific Sessions. AS is a thickening and narrowing of the aortic valve that can reduce blood

Mashup Score: 1
Long Beach, Calif. – Additional analysis from the SMall Annuli Randomized To Evolut or SAPIEN (SMART) study demonstrated clinical non-inferiority of self-expanding valves (SEV) versus balloon-expandable valves (BEV) in aortic stenosis patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and confirmed valve performance superiority over time based on hemodynamics. Data also showed similar positive results in two age groups (< or ≥ 80 years old). The late-breaking results were presented today

Mashup Score: 1Women and Black Patients Less Likely to Receive Catheter-Based Treatment for Pulmonary Embolism | SCAI - 10 day(s) ago
REAL-PE analyzed data from patients within the Truveta database diagnosed with PE and treated with USCDT or MT for PE. Patient characteristics including race, ethnicity, age, sex, comorbidities, and prior diagnoses were assessed to investigate their association with the type of treatment used. Of the more than 430,000 patients diagnosed with PE, about 2,000 patients analyzed were treated with one of the invasive therapies. Women or Black patients were less frequently treated with invasive therapy than

Mashup Score: 4Novel Score System Accurately Identifies Lesions Reducing Risk of PCI Complications | SCAI - 11 day(s) ago
Long Beach, Calif. – New data demonstrated that a left main (LM) bifurcation-specific novel scoring system (LM V-RESOLVE), based on three simple baseline angiographic findings, could help to rapidly discriminate lesions at risk of side branch (SB) occlusion during LM bifurcation percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)— reducing risk during the procedure. The results from the prospective trial were presented today as late-breaking science at the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions
