Long-term clinical impact of serum albumin in coronary artery disease patients with preserved renal function.

Nutrition, metabolism, and cardiovascular diseases : NMCD
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Low serum albumin level is reportedly associated with worse clinical outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, associations between decreased serum albumin level and outcomes in non-CKD patients with corona...

Robotics in percutaneous cardiovascular interventions.

Expert review of cardiovascular therapy
The fundamental technique of performing percutaneous cardiovascular (CV) interventions has remained unchanged and requires operators to wear heavy lead aprons to minimize exposure to ionizing radiation. Robotic technology is now being utilized in int...

Robotic technology in interventional cardiology: Current status and future perspectives.

Catheterization and cardiovascular interventions : official journal of the Society for Cardiac Angiography & Interventions
Robotic technology has been utilized in cardiovascular medicine for over a decade, and over that period, its use has been expanded to percutaneous coronary and peripheral vascular interventions. The safety and feasibility of robotically assisted perc...

Impact of robotics and a suspended lead suit on physician radiation exposure during percutaneous coronary intervention.

Cardiovascular revascularization medicine : including molecular interventions
BACKGROUND: Reports of left-sided brain malignancies among interventional cardiologists have heightened concerns regarding physician radiation exposure. This study evaluated the impact of a suspended lead suit and robotic system on physician radiatio...

Assessing Hospital Performance After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Using Big Data.

Circulation. Cardiovascular quality and outcomes
BACKGROUND: Although risk adjustment remains a cornerstone for comparing outcomes across hospitals, optimal strategies continue to evolve in the presence of many confounders. We compared conventional regression-based model to approaches particularly ...

Impact of renal impairment on platelet reactivity and clinical outcomes during chronic dual antiplatelet therapy following coronary stenting.

European heart journal. Cardiovascular pharmacotherapy
AIMS: Clinical utilization of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in patients with renal impairment (RI) following percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) represents an urgent, unmet need choosing optimal agents, duration of treatment, and potential d...

Robotically assisted percutaneous coronary intervention: benefits to the patient and the cardiologist.

Expert review of cardiovascular therapy
Robotic percutaneous interventional systems represent the future of interventional cardiology. Robotic technology significantly reduces operator exposure to ionizing radiation, and improves ergonomics in the cardiac catheterization laboratory, thereb...
