Background Chronic total occlusion (CTO) often triggers collateral coronary development, yet the relationship between ...
Your heart already has its own built-in bypass system that predicts whether the heart muscle is alive or dead—according to ...
Anyone who has learned to read ECGs has heard it before: "You can't diagnose acute myocardial infarction (AMI) on an ECG in the presence of a pacemaker." We have actually heard the same dictum ...
For the small proportion of TAVR patients at high risk of coronary obstruction, a new registry study confirms that preventive stent implantation across the coronary ostia is safe, with good survival ...
In-hospital silent asymptomatic graft occlusion following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was associated with an increased incidence of angina-related rehospitalisations and reinterventions ...
In what is believed to be the first randomized placebo-controlled trial of its kind, patients with a chronic total blockage of a coronary artery who received a nonsurgical procedure to reopen the ...

PARIS -- For coronary procedures, conventional radial access held up against a newer technique developed to reduce radial artery occlusion (RAO), according to the DISCO RADIAL investigators. They ...
HEART disease and heart failure in aging persons are usually assumed to be due to coronary arteriosclerosis (arteriosclerotic heart disease, ischemic heart disease) if other identifiable causes of ...
The coronary arterial system is composed of three compartments with different functions, although the borders of each compartment cannot be clearly defined anatomically 2 (Figure 1). The proximal ...
