Background: Iatrogenic pericardial effusion (PE) has been demonstrated to lead to cardiac injury as a sign of systemic inflammatory response.Objectives: This study sought to determine the anatomical characteristics and clinical presentation associated with PE after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) by using echocardiography.Methods: The clinical outcomes of all patients with coronary artery disease who underwent PCI from July 2014 to December 2018 were evaluated. The quantitative and qualitative analyses of PE were performed. The associations between the presence of PE and procedural factors were also evaluated.Results: A total of 882 patients were enrolled. PE was found in 144 patients (16.3%) and was mostly located in the anterior pericardium at low amounts. The serum levels of high-sensitive C-reaction protein before PCI and troponin T in the group with PE after PCI were significantly higher than those in the group without PE (p < 0.0001). The presence of PE was associated with the procedural time (OR = 1.02, p = 0.035) and the degree of interventional complexity (multiple vessels OR = 1.89, p = 0.014; chronic total occlusion OR = 2.04, p = 0.005; and PCI with rotational atherectomy OR = 1.15, p = 0.011) independent of the number of culprit vessels and stents. During 1-year follow-up, a significantly higher number of cardiac deaths (3) and myocardial infarctions (8) occurred in patients with PE than in patients without PE (P < 0.05).Conclusion: Post-PCI acute PE was frequent, generally mild, mainly asymptomatic, and independently associated with procedural time and complexity. This effusion, which is considered as a cardiac damage marker, could be a predominant clinical sign for long-term prognosis.

Objectives The deleterious effects of psychological problems on coronary heart disease (CHD) are not satisfactorily explained. We explored influential factors associated with mortality in psycho-cardiological disease in a Chinese sample. Methods Of 7460 cardiac patients, we selected 132 patients with CHD and mental illness. Follow-up was conducted via telephone. We analyzed clinical characteristics, clinical outcomes, and survival. Results The clinical detection rate of psycho-cardiological disease in the overall patient population was 1.8%. Of these, 113 patients completed follow-up; 18 died owing to cardiovascular diseases during follow-up. Kaplan–Meier analysis showed dysphagia, limb function, self-care ability, percutaneous coronary intervention, low-density lipoprotein, total cholesterol, pro-brain natriuretic peptide and high-sensitivity (hs) troponin T had significant associations with cumulative survival. Cox regression analysis showed total cholesterol (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.765, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.001–7.641), hs troponin T (HR: 4.668, 95% CI: 1.293–16.854), and percutaneous coronary intervention (HR: 3.619, 95% CI: 1.383–9.474) were independently associated with cumulative survival. Conclusions The clinical detection rate of psycho-cardiological disease was far lower than expected. Normal total cholesterol and hs troponin T were associated with reduced cardiovascular disease mortality over 2 years. Percutaneous coronary intervention is a prognostic risk factor in patients with psycho-cardiological disease.

Abstract Background As an initial treatment strategy, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO) did not show mid-term survival benefits compared with optimal medical therapy (OMT). Purpose To compare 10-year clinical outcomes between OMT and PCI in CTO patients. Methods Between March 2003 and February 2012, 2,024 patients with CTO were enrolled in a single center registry and followed for about 10 years. We excluded CTO patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting, and classified patients into the OMT group (n=664) or PCI group (n=883) according to initial treatment strategy. Propensity-score matching was performed to minimize potential selection bias. The primary outcome was cardiac death. Results In the PCI group, 699 patients (79.2%) underwent successful revascularization. Clinical and angiographic characteristics revealed more comorbidities and more complex lesions in the OMT group than in the PCI group. At 10 years, the PCI group had lower risks of cardiac death (10.4% versus 22.3%; HR 0.43; 95% CI 0.32 to 0.57; p<0.001) than the OMT group. After the propensity-score matching analyses, the PCI group had lower risks of cardiac death (13.6% versus 20.8%; HR 0.62; 95% CI 0.44 to 0.88; p=0.007), acute myocardial infarction (6.3% versus 11.2%; HR 0.55; 95% CI 0.34 to 0.91; p=0.02), any revascularization (23.9% versus 32.2%; HR 0.67; 95% CI 0.51 to 0.88; p=0.004) than the OMT group. The beneficial effects of CTO PCI were consistent across various subgroups (all p-values for interaction: non-significant). Conclusions As an initial treatment strategy, PCI reduced late cardiac death compared with OMT in CTO patients.

AbstractChronic total occlusion (CTO) is a common challenge accounting for 10% of coronary lesions found on coronary angiography. Patients are frequently referred for bypass surgery because percutaneous coronary intervention is challenging in this subset. Recent advances in the hardware as well as the technical expertise and an algorithm approach have improved the success to more than 90%.Antegrade approach is the cornerstone for managing CTO and has two distinct strategies: antegrade wire escalation, and antegrade dissection and reentry strategy. Step-wise approach to perform these procedures and the use of adjunct imaging are discussed.

Abstract Background The strategy of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided wiring for CTO PCI, that is, leading the second guidewire into the true lumen under observing by IVUS from subintimal space, is the last resort. We developed the angiography-based 3D wiring method. During establishment of the angiography-based 3D wiring method, we deduced that observation of the guidewire tip as well as the shaft named “The tip detection method” simplifies and facilitates 3D wiring under IVUS-guided wiring. Therefore, we produced New CTO IVUS which is the upgraded version of Navifocus WR IVUS by adding the pull-back transducer system. This pull-back system enables us to detect the tip as well as the shaft of the second guidewire in real time (tip detection method), which facilitates the 3D wiring technique under IVUS-guided wiring. Objective We evaluated the efficacy of the tip detection method during 3D wiring for CTO PCI with New CTO IVUS. Method We created a target pinpoint penetration model and performed the procedures using an experimental heartbeat model. The target (a tube with a lumen 0.6 mm in diameter) was placed in the distal part of a CTO 20 mm in length made of 2.5% agar. After the second guidewire (Conquest-12g) was advanced into the CTO lesion to within 5mm of the target using the angiography-based wiring, IVUS-guided wiring was performed by using Navifocus WR or New CTO IVUS each five times. Result The frequency of the puncture time was reduced using the new CTO IVUS compared to the Navifocus WR (1.7±0.8 vs. 28.8±23.2, p=0.17). The procedure time was significantly shorter using the new CTO IVUS compared to the Navifocus WR (103±61 vs. 459±373 seconds, p=0.04). Conclusion The tip detection method during 3D wiring with the new short tip IVUS with the pull-back system enables us to easily perform 3D wiring and will change the CTO PCI strategy.
