Cardiovascular Research Foundation
Complex PCI: Left Main and CTO Summit will be held Feb. 23-25, 2012 in New York City
WHAT:
The final agenda is now available online for the Complex PCI: Left Main and CTO Summit at http://www.complexpci.com/conference/agenda.html. The Summit is a three-day conference featuring state-of-the-art technologies, research findings and new developments in therapeutic procedures essential for interventional cardiologists to optimize success in chronic total coronary occlusions and left main coronary interventions. Topics at this year's summit will include:
- When and why to open a CTO
- Left main PCI vs. CABG: Patient selection
- CTO angioplasty: Antegrade vs. retrograde approaches; wire and device selection, and essential techniques and tips
- Basic and advanced imaging and physiologic lesion assessment to improve procedural results and late outcomes
- Pharmacology essentials
- Minimizing and managing complications
WHY:
Leading practitioners of percutaneous coronary intervention must become experts at recanalizing chronic total occlusions, and with advanced techniques, success rates greater than 90% may be obtained. In addition, stenting of the unprotected left main coronary artery has emerged as a viable alternative to surgery in selected patients but requires a special skill set and understanding of anatomy, imaging, hemodynamic support, and adjunctive devices.
This year's conference will emphasize both advanced techniques and evidence-based medicine, featuring live case transmissions led by the world's leading experts in left main and CTO stenting.
WHEN:
February 23 25, 2012
WHERE:
New York Marriott Marquis Hotel
1535 Broadway
New York, NY
