Abstract
The goal of this study was to examine the safety and results of interventional procedures performed during the broadcast of live case demonstrations. Professional meetings using live case demonstrations to present cutting-edge technology are considered a valuable educational resource. There is an ongoing discussion on whether patients who are treated during live case demonstrations are exposed to a higher risk. Between 1998 and 2010, 101 patients were treated during live transmissions from a single center in 15 invasive-cardiology conferences. Technical success was defined as the ability to effectively perform the planned procedure without any major complication. The primary endpoint of the study was the composite occurrence of death, myocardial infarction, or stroke. The interventional procedures included coronary (n=66), carotid (n=15), peripheral (n=1), valvular (n=2), congenital heart disease (n=12), and complex electrophysiological mapping and ablation interventions (n=7). In 4 cases, the intended procedure was not done. The procedure was technically successful in 95%. In 5 cases, the procedure was unsuccessful because of the inability to cross a chronic total occlusion. There were no deaths during the hospital stay, and t...Continue Reading
