Core Tip |
This is a retrospective study aiming to investigate the relationship of jailed polymer jacketed guide wires (PGW) with procedural myocardial infarction (PMI) after a bifurcation coronary intervention. There is concern that this causes polymer shearing and distal micro-embolization. Our data suggests that jailed PGW are strongly associated with PMI, even after adjusting for pertinent risk factors. Thus caution should be exercised in routinely jailing PGW until further definitive data are available. |
