In our registry, POBA seems to be as effective as other DES implantations in cases of DES ISR, especially in cases of focal type (Mehran classification IA, IC), in terms of long-term outcomes.

The incidence of CI-AKI after CA or PCI was higher in patients with CKD associated with diabetes. Lower levels of basal hemoglobin appeared to be related to a higher risk of CI-AKI, and contrast media volume, especially if exceeding the dose adjusted for renal function, was a strong modifiable risk factor for CI-AKI.

In this single-center, prospective, randomized study, a EM use before stenting in STEMI patients seems to remove more thrombotic burden compared with DI, providing a greater post-thrombectomy epicardial flow and a better post-stenting microvascular perfusion.
