The Shockwave C2 Aero Effect Featuring Dr. Lindsey Cilia and Dr. Allen Jeremias
Join Drs. Lindsey Cilia and Allen Jeremias as they crack into Shockwave C2 Aero’s aero-volutionary deliverability and crossability during an on-site interview at CRT 2026. Watch as they discuss the benefits of this new device compared to prior generations of Coronary IVL, dive into the ways it’s impacted their calcium algorithms, and walk through a calcified tortuous RCA live case performed by Dr Jeremias and his team.
How Has Shockwave Coronary IVL Changed Your Practice? (0:10 -1:15)
Drs. Cilia and Jeremias talk about how safe, effective Coronary IVL has significantly changed the way physicians tackle complex PCI — helping them improve their outcomes especially in complex, tortuous lesions.
Tell Us About Your Experience with Shockwave C2 Aero (1:15-2:15)
Drs. Cilia and Jeremias discuss Shockwave C2 Aero’s device’s improved deliverability, including how it requires less reliance on adjunctive tools compared to Shockwave C2+.
“A lot of times it’s my first go-to device for calcium modification even if the lesion is super tortuous and the imaging catheter won’t cross.”
—Dr. Lindsey Cilia
“It’s an amazing improvement from the first generation — it’s like going from iPhone 1 to iPhone 15.”
— Dr. Allen Jeremias
How Has Shockwave C2 Aero Impacted Your Treatment Algorithm? (2:20-3:15)
From use as an upfront calcium modification tool to helping enable a radial approach in more complex patients, Drs Cilia and Jeremias cover all the advancements Shockwave C2 Aero has brought to their practices.
“My go-to is really to take this device up front as opposed to some of the more high-risk devices.”
—Dr. Lindsey Cilia
“Many times it avoids using atherectomy … and it shortens the procedure and just simplifies it.”
— Dr. Allen Jeremias
Case Review: PCI of Calcified Tortuous RCA (3:15-end)
Dr. Jeremias walks Dr. Cilia through a recent Shockwave C2 Aero case involving a 74-year-old male patient with multiple comorbidities and a heavy coronary calcium burden involving three different morphologies.
Watch to hear their entire conversation about this complex case, including the importance of imaging, reducing patient time on the table, and how Shockwave C2 Aero’s deliverability, crossability and re-wrapability performed in a real-world scenario.
Dr. Jeremias and Dr. Cilia are paid consultants of Shockwave Medical.
