Shockwave Lithoplasty Compared to Cutting Balloon Treatment in Calcified Coronary Disease - A Randomized Controlled Trial

Korábbi kezelés

• Patient has a known allergy to contrast which cannot be adequately pre-treated
• Angiographic or imaging evidence of dissection in the target vessel prior to randomization

Más betegség

• Patient has a history of bleeding or coagulopathy and is unable to receive blood transfusion if needed
• Patient has suffered a recent cerebrovascular event (stroke/TIA) within last 30 days
  • Angiographic Exclusion Criteria
  • <!-- -->
• Coronary artery disease that requires surgical revascularization

Laborértékek

• Known LVEF < 25%
• Patient is unable to tolerate dual anti-platelet therapy
• The target lesion involves a bifurcation lesion in which either a 2-stent strategy is planned or both branches are planned for calcium modification

Egyéb

• <!-- -->
• Patient is pregnant
• Patient is actively participating in another clinical trial
• Ongoing Non-STEMI with rising biomarkers
• Cardiogenic shock or requirement for mechanical/pharmacologic hemodynamic support
• Planned use in the randomized lesion of a bare metal stent or non-stent treatment only
• Patient presents with STEMI
• Presence of large thrombus in the target vessel
• Inability to pass coronary guidewire across the lesion
• The target vessel has excessive tortuosity (Defined as presence of 2+ bends > 90o or 3+ bends > 75o) or other anatomic considerations that precludes intravascular imaging
• The target lesion is within a coronary artery bypass graft
• Investigator feels there is not equipoise regarding the treatment strategy

• 1. Subject is > 21 years old 2. Subject with an indication for PCI for the treatment of a) stable coronary artery disease; b) unstable angina; or c) NSTEMI with evidence of down-trending biomarkers 3. Subject is willing and able to provide informed written consent Angiographic Inclusion Criteria
  • The target lesion is a de novo native coronary lesion
  • The target vessel is a native coronary artery with either:
  • A stenosis > 70%; or,
  • A stenosis > 50% and <70% with evidence of ischemia via either positive stress test, FFR value < 0.80 or RFR/iFR/DFR value < 0.89
  • The reference diameter of the target vessel is > 2.5mm and < 4.0 mm at the lesion site
  • The target lesion has evidence of significant calcium at the lesion site defined either as,
  • The presence of radiopacities involving both sides of the arterial wall > 5mm and involving the target lesion on angiography
  • the presence of > 270o arc of superficial calcium on intravascular imaging with a length > 5mm or the presence of 360o arc of superficial calcium
