Appropriateness Criteria for Coronary Revascularization
Special Balloon Chocolate® PTCA TriReme Medical Inc. Device description Nitinol Constraining Structure Unique Dilatation Pillows and Grooves Mechanism of operation Controlled, Predictable, Uniform Inflation Reduced “Dog-Boning” Enhanced Dispersal of Dilatation Forces Specifications 5F or 6F guide catheter compatible depending on balloon size Range of balloon sizes (2.0/2.5/3.0/3.5mm x 10/15/20mm) Product Approval and Indication The Chocolate® PTCA Balloon Dilatation Catheter is indicated for balloon dilatation of the stenotic portion of coronary artery or bypass graft stenosis for the purpose of improving myocardial perfusion. FDA 510k clearance and CE MARK.
The Chocolate PTCA Balloon Designed to provide predictable, uniform, and atraumatic dilatation Unique nitinol “constraining structure” (CS) Uniformly distributes circumferential forces (calcific or eccentric lesions) – no “dog boning” Shields vessel wall from torsional shear stress caused by balloon “unfolding” Modifies plaque via: “Pillows”: vessel dilatation without cutting or scoring “Grooves”: stress relief, plaque modification Reduces dissections and recoil – improved lumen size Fast deflation, concentric secondary profile The Chocolate PTCA Balloon Designed to provide predictable, uniform, and atraumatic dilatation Unique nitinol “constraining structure” (CS) Uniformly distributes circumferential forces (calcific or eccentric lesions) – no “dog boning” Shields vessel wall from torsional shear stress caused by balloon “unfolding” Modifies plaque via: “Pillows”: vessel dilatation without cutting or scoring “Grooves”: stress relief, plaque modification Reduces dissections and recoil – improved lumen size Fast deflation, concentric secondary profile
Flow-Limiting Dissections with PTCA With conventional balloons, inflation can result in vessel trauma leading to dissections. Three reasons are torsional, radial, and longitudinal stress!

Primary Endpoint The primary endpoint is the composite of death, non-fatal MI, or non-fatal stroke, the same as for the FREEDOM main trial Secondary Endpoints Secondary endpoints include: all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, non-fatal MI, non-fatal stroke, and repeat revascularization
Take Home Message: Updates in Bifurcation Lesion PCI and Revascularization in Diabetics Bifurcation lesion PCI involving FFR has limited value but a prospective strategy of identifying complex bifurcation lesion is useful and has better outcomes with the use of 2-stents. Drug eluting balloon is inferior to DES in bifurcation lesion even as the provisional side branch strategy Despite the superior outcomes of CABG in FREEDOM trial using first generation DES, data are emerging that newer generation DES especially CoCr EES has potential to have similar outcomes to CABG in multivessel diabetic pts. Future trials of revascularization in complex CAD in diabetic patients will be needed for the final answer.
