Intervention day 1: Contemporary treatment of Stent Failure: The optimal use of intra-coronary imaging

Stent failure, which comprises in-stent restenosis (ISR) and stent thrombosis (ST), is a well-known complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The factors associated with stent failure include neoatherosclerosis, neointimal hyperplasia, stent underexpansion, stent evagination, stent malapposition, geographical miss and stent fracture.

This training day aims to provide an overview of the field and facilitate a scientific discussion and an exchange of ideas on the management of stent failure. The use of a live case will encourage debate, and help illustrate a systematic, step-wise approach to the management of stent failure. The use of hands-on workstations for trainees to evaluate stent failure cases will greatly help with the application of this learning.

By attending this webinar, you will learn:

• The importance of intracoronary imaging in stent failure and how to obtain high-quality image acquisition in stent failure cases
• The different causes of in-stent restenosis in contemporary practice, and the interpretation of intracoronary images to differentiate underlying mechanisms of in-stent restenosis and stent thrombosis
• To tailor in-stent restenosis treatment depending on the aetiology, based on intra-coronary imaging
• To actively participate in breakout hands-on intracoronary imaging sessions, to gain experience in reviewing stent failure cases and planning treatment
• To actively participate in a live intervention case to help consolidate learning of a systematic, step-wise approach to stent failure PCI

This webinar is available for on-demand viewing. The webinar recording will be available for registered delegates up to 60 days after the live webinar broadcast via Zoom. The link will be sent 24 hours after the webinar takes place.
