LM Bifurcation Algorithm and DK Crush-Panel Discussion: Part 1

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Dr. Abbott and Dr. Lisko are moderating a panel discussion with several other doctors about mechanical support in algorithms for clinical practice. They discuss the use of mechanical support devices for high-risk PCI, considering factors such as LV dysfunction and complex anatomy. They also mention the importance of proper planning and access site options. They talk about the use of different atherectomy devices and the risk of ischemia and no reflow. The duration of DAPT after left main two stent approaches is also discussed, with the consensus being in favor of prolonged and strong DAPT. The panel also addresses questions about DK Crush technique tips and tricks.
