4 Hideo Tamai, MD & Osamu Katoh, MD

5 440 Institutions Reported 737,675 Cases to ACC/NCDR V3.04
The Influence of Operator Volume on Attempt Rate of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for CTO 440 Institutions Reported 737,675 Cases to ACC/NCDR V3.04 39,502 patients with CTO PCI to the 100% Occlusion Within 90 Days? Yes No 6,331 (16%) 33,171 Excluded from Data: Recent MI, Indication for Surgery, Prior CABG, Shock

6 Chronic Total Coronary Occlusion Low Attempt Rates
Fear of failure Complications Doubt regarding long term results Time and cost constraints Radiation exposure — patient and operator Apathy

7 How to Build Your Own CTO PCI Program CTO Day
1-2 days per month Dedicated lab, senior technicians Two interventional cardiologists 4 CTO cases per day 4-6 visiting physicians Lecture, case review, handout materials Industry support Utilization of new technology

8 How to Build Your Own CTO PCI Program
No Ad hoc procedures Detailed angiographic evaluation Proximal cap Distal cap Length of lesion Angulation of lesion Calcification Collaterals (septals, epicardials, and SVGs)

15 Bellingham, WA January 2011 17 patients from 6 states (9 previous failures) 13 physicians 5 CTO operators working in pairs C Thompson, B Lombardi, A Grantham, T DeMartini, M Wyman Strategy determined by group blinded to operator assignment Hybrid approach Initial strategy/device Time and progress parameters to switch strategies Operator unblinding immediately prior to case Primary and secondary operator Execute assigned strategy

16 Baseline Demographics, 17 pts Bellingham, WA CTO Workshop – January 2011
Mean age (yrs) 63.7 Gender (M) 94% Prior CABG 35% CTO location LAD 47% RCA 29% LCx 24% Previous failure 53% Lesion Length (mm) 23.5 Proximal RVD (mm) 2.89mm Distal RVD (mm) 2.60mm

17 Procedure Outcomes Bellingham, WA CTO Workshop – January 2011
EFFICIENCY Case time (mean) 89.9 min Cases < 2hrs 82% Contrast 273.5 cc Fluoro Time 39.6 min EFFECTIVENESS Technical Success 100% SAFETY MACE 5.8% (perf) Death/MI 0%
