About

The Lower Silesian Orbital Atherectomy Registry (LOAR), is an observational registry collecting all consecutive cases of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) performed with the support of the Orbital Atherectomy Device due to the presence of calcified lesion in coronary arteries. Data will be collected in two cooperating cardiac centers (Department of Cardiology, The Copper Health Center, Lubin, Poland, and Department of Cardiology, Provincial Specialized Hospital in Legnica, Poland).

Full description

The study population consisted of all consecutive patients with severely calcified coronary lesions undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the Orbital Atherectomy Device at two cooperating cardiac centers (Department of Cardiology, The Copper Health Center, Lubin, Poland, and Department of Cardiology, Provincial Specialized Hospital in Legnica, Poland). All study patients had a clinical indication for PCI based on current European Society of Cardiology (ESC) revascularization guidelines, with local heart team support where appropriate.

The decision to perform OA-assisted PCI was left to the discretion of the operator, based on clinical and angiographic features with a concomitant assessment of calcification. Only patients with moderate or severe calcification were enrolled. Calcification severity was defined either by angiographic assessment or by intravascular assessment using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and/or optical coherence tomography (OCT). All patients were thoroughly informed about all therapeutic options and PCI-related risks before giving written consent.

OA Intervention

Description:

All consecutive patients with moderate/ severely calcified coronary lesions who underwent PCI facilitated by the Orbital Atherectomy The decision to perform orbital atherectomy was left to the operator's dissertation after the detection of a moderate/severely calcified lesion. Angiographic calcification was classified as moderate when it involved between 30% and 50% of the reference lesion diameter, and severe when it occupied over 50% of the reference diameter. When the initial assessment was based on IVUS finding lesion had to reach at least 2 points in the IVUS calcium score. There were no angiographic exclusion criteria regarding lesion anatomy such as the length, tortuosity, severity, or location. All procedural features(use additional lesion preparation technique; stent implantation parameters, periprocedural pharmacological therapy, use of intravascular imaging along with the left ventricular support device) were left to the discretion of the operator.
