About this event

  • Date and time Thu 13 Jul 2023 from 9:30am to 4:00pm
  • Location Royal Society of Medicine
  • Organised by Cardiology

Stent failure, which comprises in-stent restenosis (ISR) and stent thrombosis (ST), is a well-known complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The factors associated with stent failure include neoatherosclerosis, neointimal hyperplasia, stent underexpansion, stent evagination, stent malapposition, geographical miss and stent fracture.  

Join this training day focused on a scientific discussion and an exchange of ideas on stent failure management. A live case will encourage debate and help illustrate a systematic, step-wise approach to the management of stent failure. Hands-on workstations will facilitate trainees to evaluate stent failure cases. 

By attending this event, participants will learn:

  • The importance of intracoronary imaging in stent failure and how to obtain high-quality image acquisition in stent failure cases

  • The different causes of in-stent restenosis in contemporary practice and being able to interpret intracoronary images to different underlying mechanisms of in-stent restenosis and stent thrombosis

  • How to tailor in-stent restenosis treatment depending on the aetiology, based on intra-coronary imaging

  • To actively participate in breakout hands-on intracoronary imaging sessions to gain experience in reviewing stent failure cases and planning treatment

  • To actively participate in a live intervention case to help consolidate learning of a systematic, step-wise approach to stent failure PCI
