Project description:IntroductionCentral airway obstruction (CAO) often requires repeated interventional procedures which offer variable efficacy, a time-limited effect, and have inherent limitations. Paclitaxel has been used to prevent restenosis in blood vessels. The literature describing the use of paclitaxel to prevent recurrent airway stenosis is limited. We sought to describe our experience using a paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB) for CAO.Material and methodsWe performed a retrospective review of all patients who underwent PCB airway dilation. We collected: basic demographics, details of the CAO, details of the bronchoscopes used, PCB size, PCB dilation pressure, duration of PCB inflation, concurrent non-PCB interventions, estimated pre- and post-PCB CAO luminal diameter, follow up bronchoscopy date and luminal diameter, and spirometry results.ResultsPCB dilation was performed in 10 cases on 5 patients. Eight PCB dilations were performed for CAO related to distal airway stent stenosis. Concurrent non-PCB interventions were performed with 6 PCB dilations. Nine cases documented improvements and 1 was unchanged immediately post-PCB dilation. Median luminal diameter pre-PCB dilation was 2 mm. Immediately post-PCB dilation, the median change in luminal diameter was 2 mm. Follow up bronchoscopy information was available for 9 cases. For these 9 cases, luminal diameter was unchanged in 5 and worse in 4 when compared to immediate post-PCB dilation.ConclusionPCB dilation in benign CAO produced a modest effect in this cohort of challenging airways. Larger prospective studies are needed to assess how a PCB would perform when compared to a non-drug coated balloon.

Project description:Atherosclerotic diseases may include femoropopliteal artery stenosis or occlusion. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is an effective and minimally invasive treatment strategy for atherosclerotic femoropopliteal artery stenosis/occlusion disease. Balloon angioplasty is a widely used technique in the management of occlusive disease in almost all arterial segments.We enrolled 111 diabetics with long femoropopliteal lesions, among which 54 received PTA with paclitaxel-coated balloon (the Paclitaxel group), and 57 with standard balloon catheters (the Control group).The primary outcome was set as angiographic late lumen loss (LLL) within 6 months; the secondary angiographic outcome was binary restenosis. Clinical outcomes included Rutherford clarification, ankle-brachial index (ABI) and rate of clinically driven target lesion revascularization (TLR). Two groups had similar basal clinical features, angiographic and procedural characteristics. Compared to controls, the Paclitaxel group had a significantly lower 6-month LLL rate, 12-month binary restenosis rate, 12-month TLR, lower Rutherford grades at 3 and 6 months, and higher ABI at 3 months. For all factors which might influence outcomes, fasting blood glucose was negatively correlated with ABI; the blood urea nitrogen (BUN) was positively related with the Rutherford clarification grades. In addition, the coronary heart disease (CHD) and smoking histories were positively correlated with residual stenosis after treatment.Collectively, the paclitaxel-coated balloon angioplasty can yield more favorable angiographic and clinical outcomes than standard uncoated balloon angioplasty, even in the more challenging lesions (the long and occlusive femoropopliteal lesions) in diabetics, when it had a similar safety profile to the traditional balloon. Blood glucose, BUN, CHD, and smoking imply poor curative effects.

Project description:PurposeTo investigate drug contamination of the working environment with paclitaxel drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty due to loss of paclitaxel containing particles from the coating during DCB preparation, insertion, and inflation.Material and methodsIn an experimetal laboratory setting, drug loss during removal of the protective cover and insertion of the DCB through the hemostatic valve of the introducer sheath and after inflation was examined. In seven DCB types of different manufacturers, semi-quantitative image analysis was performed during five standardized tests cycles. Additionally, every DCB type passed one cycle of a wipe test and one cycle of air sampling.ResultsBy removing the protective cover, the paclitaxel-covered balloon surface was significantly reduced in 3 out of 7 products (P = 0.043). Overall, extend of decline ranged from 0.4 to 12%. In 6 of 7 products, powdered paclitaxel clusters dropped down upon removal of the protective cover (0.099 ng/cm2 up to approx. 22 ng/cm2). Contamination of the air was detected in none of the DCB types. When pushed through the vascular sheath, none of the investigated DCB types showed a significant loss of paclitaxel from the coated balloon surface. After balloon inflation, the paclitaxel-coated surface area varied between manufacturers ranging from 25.9 to 97.8%.ConclusionIn some DCB types, the removal of the protective cover already leads to a significant loss of paclitaxel and paclitaxel-coated surfaces. As a result, there will be a contamination of the workplace and a reduction in the therapeutic dose.Level of evidenceNo level of evidence.

Project description:Paclitaxel drug-coated balloons (DCBs) reduce restenosis, but their overall safety has recently raised concerns. This study hypothesized that DCBs could lessen inflammation and reduce plaque progression. Using 25 rabbits with cholesterol feeding- and balloon injury-induced lesions, DCB-percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), plain PTA, or sham-PTA (balloon insertion without inflation) was investigated using serial intravascular near-infrared fluorescence-optical coherence tomography and serial intravascular ultrasound. In these experiments, DCB-PTA reduced inflammation and plaque burden in nonobstructive lesions compared with PTA or sham-PTA. These findings indicated the potential for DCBs to serve safely as regional anti-atherosclerosis therapy.

Project description:PurposeTo summarize the 5-year outcomes of drug-coated balloon (DCB) for the treatment of femoropopliteal lesions in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) or chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) compared to non-DM and intermittent claudication (IC).MethodsThe IN.PACT Global study was a real-world prospective, multicenter, international, single-arm study that enrolled 1535 participants. Post hoc analyses were conducted for participants with DM (n = 560) versus non-DM (n = 842) and CLTI (n = 156) versus IC (n = 1246). Assessments included freedom from clinically driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) through 60 months, a composite safety outcome (freedom from device- and procedure-related death through 30 days, and freedom from major target limb amputation and freedom from CD-target vessel revascularization within 60 months), and major adverse events (MAEs).ResultsKaplan-Meier estimates of 60-month freedom from CD-TLR were 67.7% and 70.5% (p = 0.25) in the DM and non-DM cohorts; and 60.7% and 70.5% (p = 0.006) in the CLTI and IC cohorts. The Kaplan-Meier 60-month composite safety outcomes were 65.1% DM versus 68.9% non-DM (p = 0.12); 53.2% CLTI versus 69.1% IC (p < 0.001). Between DM and non-DM, MAE rates were not significantly different through 60 months except for all-cause mortality which was higher in DM (23.8% versus 16.6%; p < 0.001). Participants with CLTI had a higher cumulative incidence of major target limb amputation (6.8% versus 1.1%; p < 0.001) and all-cause mortality (37.4% versus 17.4%; p < 0.001) through 60 months compared to IC.ConclusionsIn this real-world study, 5-year reintervention rates following DCB angioplasty were similar between DM and non-DM, but mortality rates were expectedly higher in patients with DM. Reintervention, mortality, and amputation rates were all higher in CLTI patients compared to IC, which is consistent with the known frailty of this patient population.Level of evidenceLevel 3, Non-randomized controlled cohort/follow-up study.

Project description:BackgroundNumerous studies have reported favorable outcomes using drug-coated balloons (DCBs) for treatment of symptomatic peripheral artery disease of the superficial femoral and popliteal arteries. However, the treatment effect compared with an uncoated balloon has differed greatly among the randomized trials, with better outcomes observed with higher-dose DCBs. This European trial was designed to assess the safety and effectiveness of a next-generation low-dose (2-µg/mm2 surface dose of paclitaxel) DCB.MethodsThis was a prospective, randomized, multicenter, single-blinded trial. Patients were randomized (3:1) to treatment with a low-dose DCB or an uncoated percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) balloon. The primary safety end point was a composite of freedom from device- and procedure-related death through 30 days after the procedure and freedom from target limb major amputation and clinically driven target lesion revascularization through 12 months after the procedure. The primary effectiveness end point was primary patency at 12 months.ResultsPatients were randomized to treatment with a DCB (222 patients, 254 lesions) or uncoated PTA balloon (72 patients, 79 lesions) after successful predilatation. Mean lesion length was 7.2 and 7.1 cm, and 19.2% and 19.0% of lesions represented total occlusions, respectively. The primary safety end point was met, and superiority was demonstrated; freedom from a primary safety event was 94.1% (193 of 205) with DCB and 83.3% (50 of 60) with PTA, for a difference of 10.8% (95% confidence interval, 0.9%-23.0%). The primary effectiveness end point was met, and superiority of DCB over PTA was achieved (83.9% [188 of 224] versus 60.6% [40 of 66]; P<0.001). Outcomes with DCB were also superior to PTA per the Kaplan-Meier estimate for primary patency (89.0% versus 65.0% at 365 days; log-rank P<0.001) and for rates of clinically driven target lesion revascularization (5.9% versus 16.7%; P=0.014).ConclusionsSuperiority with a low-dose DCB for femoropopliteal interventions was demonstrated over PTA for both the safety and effectiveness end points.Clinical trial registrationURL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Project description:BackgroundNoncompressible hemorrhage is a leading cause of preventable death in civilian and military trauma populations. Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is a promising method for controlling noncompressible hemorrhage, but safe balloon inflation parameters are not well defined. Our goal was to determine the balloon inflation parameters associated with benchtop flow occlusion and aortic/balloon rupture in ex vivo human aortas and test the hypothesis that optimal balloon inflation characteristics depend on systolic pressure and subject demographics.MethodsAortic occlusion parameters in human thoracic aortas (TAs) and abdominal aortas (AAs) from 79 tissue donors (median ± SD age, 52 ± 18 years [range, 13-75 years]; male, 52; female, 27) were recorded under 100/40, 150/40, and 200/40 mm Hg flow pressures for ER-REBOA and Coda balloons. Rupture tests were done with Coda balloons only without flow.ResultsIn the TA, the average balloon inflation volumes and pressures resulting in 100/40 mm Hg flow occlusion were 11.7 ± 3.8 mL and 174 ± 65 mm Hg for the ER-REBOA, and 10.6 ± 4.3 mL and 94 ± 57 mm Hg for the Coda balloons. In the AA, these values were 6.2 ± 2.6 mL and 110 ± 47 mm Hg for the ER-REBOA, and 5.9 ± 2.2 mL and 71 ± 30 mm Hg for the Coda. The average balloon inflation parameters associated with aortic/Coda balloon rupture were 39.1 ± 6.5 mL and 1,284 ± 385 mm Hg in the TA, and 27.7 ± 7.7 mL and 1,410 ± 483 mm Hg in the AA. Age, sex, and systolic pressure all had significant effects on balloon occlusion and rupture parameters.ConclusionOptimal balloon inflation parameters depend on anatomical, physiological, and demographic characteristics. Pressure-guided rather than volume-guided balloon inflation may reduce the risk of aortic rupture. These results can be used to help improve the safety of REBOA procedures and devices.

Project description:This case outlines an unusual complication of coronary intervention, the likely mechanisms leading to this and possible retrieval options. It is the first case to the best of our knowledge reporting this complication. A 78-year-old Caucasian man underwent coronary stenting. During the procedure kinking and subsequent fracture of a non-compliant percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) balloon occurred. Injection of contrast down the guide to opacify the coronary arteries resulted in 'inflation' of the balloon with air, and embolisation of the inflated balloon into the proximal left anterior descending artery. The embolised balloon was retrieved by removal of the guide catheter and wire as a unit. The patient had a good angiographic outcome. This case highlights risks associated with usage of kinked balloons catheters, and describes for the first time to our knowledge, the inflation of a PTCA balloon with air from its shaft within the catheter, causing 'floatation' embolisation into the coronary artery.

Project description:Objective: Symptomatic in-stent restenosis (sISR) is the major cause of medium- or long-term cerebral infarctions in patients who underwent percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting for severe intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and safety of paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB) angioplasty for the treatment of intracranial sISR. Methods: We report 11 cases of PCB angioplasty for intracranial sISR. Lesion locations and number were as follows: intracranial internal carotid artery (n = 4), M1 segment of middle cerebral artery (MCA) (n = 1), V4 segment of vertebral artery (n = 6). The technical success rate, periprocedural complications, and short-term outcome were retrospectively analyzed. Results: All procedures were successfully performed without periprocedural complication. Asymptomatic vessel dissection after PCB inflation occurred in one case. Postprocedural diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) showed new asymptomatic ipsilateral infarction in one case. All 11 cases did not experience ipsilateral stroke or death within 30 days or ischemic stroke in the territory of the target artery between 31 and 90 days after procedure. Conclusion: This preliminary study indicates that PCB angioplasty is feasible and safe for the treatment of intracranial sISR. Further studies are needed to clarify its efficiency and long-term outcome.
