HREVS: la revascularización híbrida no ofrece ventajas en la enfermedad de múltiples vasos

HREVS: Hybrid Revascularization Offers No Advantage in Multivessel Disease

HREVS: Hybrid Revascularization Offers No Advantage in Multivessel Disease

Courtesy of SBHCI. Hybrid revascularization, which combines CABG with PCI, failed to reduce myocardial ischemia and major cardiac and cerebrovascular events, compared to cardiac artery bypass graft  or PCI separately. However, this small study does not provide conclusive evidence, which calls for further randomized studies with enough statistical power to answer this question. Fortunately, we won’t have

CULPRIT-SHOCK Results Will Transform Guidelines and Clinical Practice

 Courtesy of the SBHCI. After treating the culprit lesion in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock, continuing revascularization of all other lesions worsens outcomes. This finding of the CULPRIT-SHOCK trial has changed entirely the way we treated this patient group and will surely modify guidelines. Culprit-lesion treatment with the option to perform

CRM vs DES: ¿Cuál se asocia mejor calidad de vida a largo plazo?

MRS vs. DES: Which one is associated with better long-term quality of life?

The SYNTAX (Synergy Between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention With Taxus and Cardiac Surgery) trial, which included patients with 3-vessel or left main coronary artery lesions, showed that myocardial revascularization surgery (MRS) turned out to be superior to angioplasty with drug-eluting stents (DES), mainly due to differences in acute myocardial infarction and repeat revascularization. Up to this work, patient sensations (which can be

Best Revascularization Strategy for Severe Carotid and Coronary Artery Disease

Courtesy of Dr. Carlos Fava. Carotid artery disease is an important cause of stroke and is associated to coronary artery disease. When patients need myocardial revascularization surgery (Carotid Artery Bypass Graft) and cannot wait one month or more for carotid revascularization, the optimal management strategy is still controversial.   The aim of this study was
