This is the official TCTMD report on the late-breaking clinical trial session on BVS at the latest EuroPCR.
I am proud of being part of it, presenting the short-term data of the RAI registry. And I am also proud that our centre was the second top enroller centre in both the RAI and IT-DISAPPEARS registry!
This is the presentation I had at the CCIF meeting at Guiyang, China, April 2015.
Which is the current role of Bivalirudin in ACS patients, nowadays? Did the Matrix trial change the scenario, or created more confusion on the matter?

The most widely used Biovascular Scaffold worldwide, namely Absorb, Abbott, is a real revolution in interventional cardiology. A lot of things changed after BVS became available, however we learned that, most importantly, the approach to PCI did change as well: like for DCB-PCI, it is not just like to implant a stent here!
This is the presentation I made at Stresa, a national meeting organized by AS Bongo, Novara Hospital, in May 2015.
