Complex Coronary / Valvular / Endovascular Interventions
This section outlines the extensive clinical expertise and innovative endovascular techniques developed for treating complex cardiovascular conditions, including high-risk coronary procedures and novel access closure solutions.
Complex high risk coronary interventional procedures (CHIP)
1,000+ cases encompassing the full spectrum of advanced coronary intervention:
- Left main interventions
- Chronic total occlusions (CTO)
- Complex bifurcation stenosis
- Bypass graft disease, with special interest in debulking atherectomy
Impella Pump - Percutaneous ventricular assist device (PVAD)
108 cases spanning both established and novel indications:
- Acute coronary interventions for patients in cardiogenic shock
- Novel indications for Impella use in cardiomyopathy and congestive heart failure
- Impella deployment in peripheral arterial disease (PAD) patients through innovative access techniques
Novel Large-Bore Access Closure Solutions
Pioneering techniques for percutaneous closure of large-bore arterial access sites, published in peer-reviewed literature:
