#ThrowbackThursday to when radial access was still on the fringes.

Back in the late '80s, it was all about femoral access, while radial was just an option. Dedicated radial closure solutions were still a future dream.

The business of cardiology is changing—and cath labs are working to keep up Financial literacy is no longer optional for physicians. “If you're not financially viable, you can't function,” explained Nirat Beohar, MD. “The business education is probably just as important as learning a new procedure.”

🕴️As #CathLab procedures grow more complex and costs rise, hospitals and interventional programs are reevaluating staffing, tech, and reimbursement.

Understanding this complexity boosts diagnostic confidence!

Myth: Angiography reveals everything.

Fact: It mainly shows epicardial vessels. Microvascular issues can exist even if angiograms look normal.

New strategies for intravascular imaging and physiological assessments in the cath lab "If you're not using an intravascular imaging modality, the PCI is not optimal," explained Haroon Faraz, MD, from Hackensack University Medical Center. Faraz is hopeful new and improved technologies will help these modalities become more popular among interventional cardiologists.

🩻Emerging intravascular imaging and physiological assessment technologies are increasingly being integrated in the #CathLab to improve lesion assessment, guide #PCI, and improve patient outcomes.

Intravascular Ultrasound-Guided Versus Angiography-Guided Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis This meta-analysis evaluated the clinical outcomes of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided versus angiography-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with coronary artery disease...

Should we rely on Angiography alone for stenting, or does Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) actually save lives?

Efficacy of Nicorandil in Preventing Myocardial Injury and Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI): A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a common procedure for treating coronary artery disease, but it carries a risk of periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI). This meta-analysis evaluated the e...

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) restores blood flow, but the procedure itself can cause injury (PMI). Can Nicorandil prevent this?

Comparison of Clinical Outcomes Between Antegrade and Retrograde Techniques for Chronic Total Occlusion Revascularizations: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Chronic total occlusions (CTOs) present significant challenges in interventional cardiology. This meta-analysis aims to compare the efficacy and safety of retrograde versus antegrade techniques in CTO...

The retrograde approach revolutionized CTO-PCI, allowing us to treat "impossible" lesions. But does this complexity come at a cost?
