Arman Qamar: Drug-Coated Balloons in Coronary Bifurcation PCI
Arman Qamar, Founder and Director, ECCORE at Endeavor Health, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article he and his colleagues co-authored, published in Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, adding:
“Pleased to share our new editorial in Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions
Drug-Coated Balloons for Side-Branch Treatment in Coronary Bifurcations: Ready for Prime Time?
We discuss the emerging role of drug-coated balloons in bifurcation PCI, including the recent OCVC-BIF randomized trial, which demonstrated significantly lower side-branch restenosis with DCB treatment
An exciting and rapidly evolving area of complex PCI, with important questions still to be answered regarding patient selection, technique, and clinical outcomes.
Grateful to Sunil Rao, Binita Shah for the opportunity to contribute to this discussion.”
