Development and Validation of a Novel Scoring System for Predicting Technical Success of Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Interventions: The PROGRESS CTO (Prospective Global Registry for the Study of Chronic Total Occlusion Intervention) Score.
Georgios Christopoulos,David E. Kandzari,Robert W. Yeh,Farouc A. Jaffer,Dimitri Karmpaliotis,Michael R. Wyman,Khaldoon Alaswad,William Lombardi,J. Aaron Grantham,Jeffrey W. Moses,Georgios E. Christakopoulos,Muhammad Nauman J Tarar,Bavana V. Rangan,Nicholas Lembo,Santiago Garcia,Daisha J. Cipher,Craig A. Thompson,Subhash Banerjee,Emmanouil S. Brilakis +18 more
TL;DR: The PROGRESS CTO score is a novel useful tool for estimating technical success in CTO PCI performed using the hybrid approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meta-analysis of clinical outcomes of patients who underwent percutaneous coronary interventions for chronic total occlusions
Georgios E. Christakopoulos,Georgios Christopoulos,Mauro Carlino,Omar M. Jeroudi,Michele Roesle,Bavana V. Rangan,Shuaib M Abdullah,Jerrold Grodin,Dharam J. Kumbhani,Minh Vo,Michael Luna,Khaldoon Alaswad,Dimitri Karmpaliotis,Stéphane Rinfret,Santiago Garcia,Subhash Banerjee,Emmanouil S. Brilakis +16 more
TL;DR: Compared with failed procedures, successful CTO PCIs are associated with a lower risk of death, stroke, and coronary artery bypass grafting and less recurrent angina pectoris.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Application of a hybrid approach to CTO crossing resulted in high success and low complication rates across a varied group of operators and hospital practice structures, supporting its expanding use in CTO PCI.
Journal Article

Georgios Christopoulos,Rohan V. Menon,Dimitri Karmpaliotis,Khaldoon Alaswad,William Lombardi,Aaron Grantham,Vishal G. Patel,Bavana V. Rangan,Anna Kotsia,Nicholas Lembo,David E. Kandzari,Harold Carlson,Santiago Garcia,Subhash Banerjee,Craig A. Thompson,Emmanouil S. Brilakis +15 more
TL;DR: Use of the hybrid approach to CTO-PCI is associated with higher success and similar complication rates compared to prior studies, supporting its expanded use for treating these challenging lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of the "hybrid approach" to chronic total occlusions in patients with previous coronary artery bypass graft surgery (from a Contemporary Multicenter US registry).
Georgios Christopoulos,Rohan V. Menon,Dimitri Karmpaliotis,Khaldoon Alaswad,William Lombardi,J. Aaron Grantham,Tesfaldet T. Michael,Vishal G. Patel,Bavana V. Rangan,Anna Kotsia,Nicholas Lembo,David E. Kandzari,James T. Lee,Anna Kalynych,Harold Carlson,Santiago Garcia,Subhash Banerjee,Craig A. Thompson,Emmanouil S. Brilakis +18 more
TL;DR: With application of the "hybrid" approach to CTO PCI, success was slightly lower, and complication rates were similar between patients with and without previous CABG.
