DISRUPT CAD IV Key Findings

  • Low rates of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 30-day (6.3%) and 1-year (9.4%) follow-up 
  • High degree of procedural success (98.4%) defined by residual stenosis <50% without in-hospital MACE 
  • No perforations, slow flow, no-reflow, or major (Type D-F) dissections 
  • Low and remarkably consistent 30-day and 1-year target lesion failure at 6.3%
