Journal ArticleDOI

Coronary Thrombi Increase PTCA Risk Angioscopy as a Clinical Tool

TL;DR: The presence of intracoronary thrombus associated with coronary stenoses is significantly underestimated by angiography and is associated with an increased incidence of adverse outcomes after coronary angioplasty.
Journal Article

Acute platelet inhibition with abciximab does not reduce in-stent restenosis (ERASER study)

TL;DR: Potent platelet inhibition with abciximab, as administered in this study, does not reduce in-stent restenosis, and the interrelationship between stents, platelets, and neointimal proliferation requires further study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of platelets in blood perfusing angioplasty-damaged coronary arteries. Flow cytometric detection.

TL;DR: It is concluded that circulating platelets become activated while flowing through PTCA-damaged stenotic coronary arteries and that this process of platelet activation is readily demonstrated by measuring the expression of activation-specific membrane GP epitopes by flow cytometric analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Initial report of the National Registry of Elective Cardiopulmonary Bypass Supported Coronary Angioplasty.

TL;DR: A National Registry of 14 centers performing elective supported angioplasty was formed to collate the initial experience with high risk patients and a cardiopulmonary bypass system capable of providing up to 6 liters/min output was employed prophylactically.
