In the latest ChalkTalk episode, we sat down with Dr. Jonathan Hill, Royal Brompton Hospital, London, to have a discussion about his 5-year journey with coronary IVL. Being involved in the first Disrupt CAD clinical studies and one of the first commercial users of the technology, he has vast experience, which he has translated into many best practices, including creating the “pulse management strategy” approach to energy distribution in the artery. In our conversation, Dr. Hill speaks to some of the most memorable moments in his interventional career, his insights into the new Shockwave C2+ catheter and his outlook on EuroPCR 2023 and beyond. We hope you enjoy this personal insights and don’t miss our latest blogpost for more information on Shockwave IVL at euroPCR 2023 https://blog.shockwavemedical.com/europcr-2023

Shockwave C2 Safety Information

In the United States: Rx only.

Indications for Use—The Shockwave Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) System with the Shockwave C2 Coronary IVL Catheter is indicated for lithotripsy-enabled, low-pressure balloon dilatation of severely calcified, stenotic de novo coronary arteries prior to stenting.

Contraindications—The Shockwave C2 Coronary IVL System is contraindicated for the following: This device is not intended for stent delivery. This device is not intended for use in carotid or cerebrovascular arteries.

Warnings— Use the IVL Generator in accordance with recommended settings as stated in the Operator’s Manual. The risk of a dissection or perforation is increased in severely calcified lesions undergoing percutaneous treatment, including IVL. Appropriate provisional interventions should be readily available. Balloon loss of pressure was associated with a numerical increase in dissection which was not statistically significant and was not associated with MACE. Analysis indicates calcium length is a predictor of dissection and balloon loss of pressure. IVL generates mechanical pulses which may cause atrial or ventricular capture in bradycardic patients. In patients with implantable pacemakers and defibrillators, the asynchronous capture may interact with the sensing capabilities. Monitoring of the electrocardiographic rhythm and continuous arterial pressure during IVL treatment is required. In the event of clinically significant hemodynamic effects, temporarily cease delivery of IVL therapy.

Precautions— Only to be used by physicians trained in angiography and intravascular coronary procedures. Use only the recommended balloon inflation medium. Hydrophilic coating to be wet only with normal saline or water and care must be taken with sharp objects to avoid damage to the hydrophilic coating. Appropriate anticoagulant therapy should be administered by the physician. Precaution should be taken when treating patients with previous stenting within 5mm of target lesion.

Potential adverse effects consistent with standard based cardiac interventions include– Abrupt vessel closure – Allergic reaction to contrast medium, anticoagulant and/or antithrombotic therapy-Aneurysm-Arrhythmia-Arteriovenous fistula-Bleeding complications-Cardiac tamponade or pericardial effusion-Cardiopulmonary arrest-Cerebrovascular accident (CVA)-Coronary artery/vessel occlusion, perforation, rupture or dissection-Coronary artery spasm-Death-Emboli (air, tissue, thrombus or atherosclerotic emboli)-Emergency or non-emergency coronary artery bypass surgery-Emergency or non-emergency percutaneous coronary intervention-Entry site complications-Fracture of the guide wire or failure/malfunction of any component of the device that may or may not lead to device embolism, dissection, serious injury or surgical intervention-Hematoma at the vascular access site(s)-Hemorrhage-Hypertension/Hypotension-Infection/sepsis/fever-Myocardial Infarction-Myocardial Ischemia or unstable angina-Pain-Peripheral Ischemia-Pseudoaneurysm-Renal failure/insufficiency-Restenosis of the treated coronary artery leading to revascularization-Shock/pulmonary edema-Slow flow, no reflow, or abrupt closure of coronary artery-Stroke-Thrombus-Vessel closure, abrupt-Vessel injury requiring surgical repair-Vessel dissection, perforation, rupture, or spasm.

Risks identified as related to the device and its use: Allergic/immunologic reaction to the catheter material(s) or coating-Device malfunction, failure, or balloon loss of pressure leading to device embolism, dissection, serious injury or surgical intervention-Atrial or ventricular extrasystole-Atrial or ventricular capture.

In episode #9 of the ChalkTalk podcast, we speak with Alexandra Lansky, MD, FACC, FAHA, FSCAI, FESC, Professor of Medicine in Cardiology, and Director of Yale Cardiovascular Clinical Research Program at Yale University School of Medicine in New Haven, Connecticut, about her recent gender analyses at TCT21 and SCAI22, in which she presented the respective 30-day and 1-year outcomes broken out by women vs men that were enrolled in the Disrupt CAD clinical program.

Dr. Lansky shares the genesis of the analysis - previous research showing that female atherectomy patients have an increased risk for angiographic complications than their male counterparts (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ccd.28373), and sheds light on what makes coronary IVL unique from a safety perspective.

She concludes by discussing the recent publication of SCAI’s “Expert Consensus Statement on Sex-Specific Consideration in Myocardial Revascularization” in JSCAI, which referenced the role of IVL in female patients. The SCAI guidelines concluded, “while additional evidence is needed, these results taken in the context of outcomes with atherectomy devices suggest that IVL may emerge as a first-line therapy for plaque modification of calcified lesions in women specifically.”
