Listen to Prof. Nick Curzen as he discusses with Dr. Rasha Al-Lamee about the role of physiologyin guiding Complex PCI. Key discussion points include: - How to treat complex patients and achieve successful revascularization - Avoid leaving residual ischemia and improve long-term outcomes; - Discuss recent trials: DEFINE PCI one-year data, and new coming studies such as DEFINE GPS.
Introducing the all-new Philips IntraSight interventional applications platform where imaging, physiology, co-registration11 and software come together to facilitate optimal patient care. IntraSight offers a comprehensive suite of clinically proven modalities, such as, iFR/FFR, IVUS and co-registration11 to simplify complex interventions, speed routine procedures and provide improved patient care.
Map iFR values directly onto the angiogram, so you can see precisely which parts of a vessel are causing ischemia
Available on the new Philips IntraSight interventional applications platform and as an upgrade to the Core systems.
Dr. Justin Davies explains how iFR Co-registration can identify disease location and the likely impact of PCI before you stent.
Dr. Allen Jeremias explains the need to understand not just whether there is ischemia, but where it is when planning for PCI.
1 in 4 patients leave the cath lab with post-PCI residual ischemia, mostly due to unseen focal lesions.10
Watch Drs. Allen Jeremias, Gregg Stone, Habib Samady and Manesh Patel as they discuss the results of DEFINE PCI.
