BOVAS: Bifurcation Optimal Viewing Angle Selection Study (BOVAS)

February 18, 2011 updated by: University Hospital, Gasthuisberg

Bifurcation Optimal Viewing Angle Selection Study

An optimal angiographic viewing angle is critical for correct diagnosis and intervention in coronary bifurcation lesion percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). The current study aims at validating a dedicated software tool (MEDIS, Leiden, The Netherlands) that will improve the selection of the best viewing angle.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

In patients undergoing coronary angiography, those with an angiographically significant bifurcation lesion will be identified. A total of 50 patients will be selected. After diagnostic angiography, optimal viewing angles for the bifurcation lesion will be calculated using the dedicated Medis (Leiden, the Netherlands) software.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient older than 18 years of age
  • Informed consent available

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Hemodynamic unstability (cardiogenic shock, life-threatening arrhythmias, inotropic support)
  • Impaired renal function (serum creatinine > 2.0 mg/dl)
