First-in-Man Study of a Novel Peripheral Plaque Atherectomy Device.

J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich)

January 2025

Department of Vascular Surgery, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.

This first-in-man (FIM) study evaluated the feasibility and safety of a new peripheral plaque atherectomy system in patients with symptomatic lower extremity artery disease (LEAD). Ten patients with symptomatic LEAD (Rutherford class 2-5) were enrolled in a prospective, single-center study from March to April 2024. Patients aged 18-85 years with target lesions showing ≥70% stenosis and reference vessel diameters ≥1.

Coron Artery Dis

March 2025

Department of Cardiology, Hospital Clínic de Barcelona, Institut d'Investigacions Biomèdiques August Pi i Sunyer (IDIBAPS), Barcelona, Spain.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study included 51 patients and found a high safety rate, with 92.2% free from target lesion failure at 180 days and 90.2% at one year.
  • * The new DCB showed significantly better results in reducing in-stent late lumen loss compared to standard balloon angioplasty, indicating its superior efficacy for ISR treatment.

Safety and Efficacy of Pivot-Balloon for Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation: The First-in-Man Experiences.

Korean Circ J

January 2025

Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, Heart Vascular Stroke Institute, Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University, Seoul, Korea.

Background And Objectives: Among various emerging catheter-based treatments for severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR), the spacer device can reduce the regurgitation orifice without manipulating the valve leaflet. However, its clinical application has been hampered by traumatic anchoring to the myocardium and the coaxial alignment of the balloon resulting in insufficient TR reduction. This study aimed to evaluate the early-stage safety, technical feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of the novel atraumatic vertical spacer in patients with isolated severe TR.
