Association of embolism and stroke in the catheterization laboratory
Key Points Strokes continue to be a rare but potentially devastating event during cardiac catheterization Most strokes are associated with brain imaging patterns consistent with embolic etiologies Common embolic etiology supports not only the critical importance of catheterization laboratory techniques to minimize activation of thrombosis or embolism, but also point to potential treatment with rapid application of neurovascular brain salvage techniques.

Use of intracardiac echocardiography to guide percutaneous transluminal mitral commissurotomy: A 20‐patient case series
ConclusionsICE‐guided PTMC offers excellent visualization of the LA and the LAA with satisfactory clinical outcomes and low risk. As a part of the PTMC procedure, ICE safely provides a valid alternative to a separate TEE procedure. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract 323: Standardized Triggers for Catheterization Laboratory Morbidity and Mortality Case Review Session Title: Poster Session III
Conclusions: We present a 10-year experience with the use of objective triggers to identify cases for M&M review. This method identifies challenging cases of educational value and could be immediately implemented to strengthen national catheterization laboratory quality improvement programs.

First in vivo evaluation of a flexible self‐apposing left atrial appendage closure device in the canine model
ConclusionThe percutaneous delivery of a novel self‐positioning LAA occlusion device is feasible and safe in a canine model. At 30 days, all devices displayed complete healing and occlusion of the LAA without any device related adverse events. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Inadvertent Arterial Placement of Central Venous Catheters: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Strategies
Central venous catheterization (CVC) is among the most ubiquitous medical procedures. Inadvertent arterial placement of the catheter presents a challenging dilemma to the interventionalist. Treatment options include: removal and manual compression, off-label use of percutaneous closure devices and/or stent grafts, and open surgical removal. Potential sequelae include bleeding, thrombosis, stroke, limb ischemia, neurologic deficit, and death. Our aim is to evaluate the use of open and endovascular techniques for the management of iatrogenic carotid, subclavian, and brachiocephalic arterial injuries related to inadvertent ar...

Lack of Concordance Between Local Investigators, Angiographic Core Laboratory, and Clinical Event Committee in the Assessment of Stent Thrombosis: Results From the TRACER Angiographic Substudy Coronary Interventions
Conclusions— ST reporting by an ACL, a CEC, and LIs is discordant. The assessment of ST is more often detected by direct review of angiograms by an ACL. Clinical Trial Registration— URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT00527943.

Reduced number of cardiovascular events and increased cost-effectiveness by genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions in the Netherlands.
CONCLUSION: This study provides evidence that for CYP2C19-related poor metabolisers prasugrel may be more effective than clopidogrel to prevent major adverse cardiovascular events after PCI and this approach could be cost-effective. PMID: 27573042 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Subclavian site should be preferred for central venous access
Commentary on: Parienti JJ, Mongardon N, Mégarbane B, et al.., 3SITES Study Group. Intravascular Complications of Central Venous Catheterization by Insertion Site. N Engl J Med 2015;373:1220–9. Implications for practice and research Subclavian site should be preferred for central venous access (CVA) with a low risk of pneumothorax. Excluding patients before randomisation represents a selection bias. Post hoc sensitivity analysis may reduce the bias without fully balancing it. An adjudication committee, unaware of study-group assignments, may compensate for the absence of feasible blindness. Context Infection, ...

Impact of Homocysteine Level on Long-term Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients after Coronary Artery Stenting.
CONCLUSIONS: Elevated HCY level (≥12 µmol/L) was independently associated with increased risk of long-term cardiovascular events in patients after coronary artery bare metal stents implantations. Thus, hyperhomocysteinemia may remain a useful prognostic marker for the risk assessment in clinical care of CAD patients. PMID: 27803490 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Thrombotic valvular dysfunction with transcatheter mitral interventions for postsurgical failures
ConclusionThrombotic related dysfunction post‐TMVR occurred in 15% (2/13) of patients and one patient had abnormal leaflet thickening that may have been thrombus related. Dual‐antiplatelet therapy was used in all 3 cases suggesting the possible need for oral anticoagulation postmitral valve‐in‐valve therapy. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
