Key Result

Intracoronary imaging-guided PCI enables precise, safe treatment of pregnant ACS patients, balancing fetal safety with effective maternal care.

Key Points

  • To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of minimum-radiation percutaneous coronary intervention in pregnant women with acute coronary syndrome.
  • Utilized intracoronary imaging techniques for the procedure
  • Adapted drug therapy to reduce potential fetal risks
  • Focused on maternal health during acute coronary syndrome
  • Intracoronary imaging allowed precise treatment while minimizing radiation exposure
  • Drug therapy modifications ensured both maternal protection and fetal safety
  • Safe outcomes were reported for both mother and fetus during intervention

Minimum-radiation intracoronary imaging-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and adapted drug therapy

Intracoronary imaging-guided PCI with adapted drug therapy allows for precise, safe, and minimum-radiation treatment of acute coronary syndrome in pregnancy.

Abstract

Intracoronary imaging-guided PCI allows precise and safe treatment in pregnant ACS patients. Drug therapy must be adapted to avoid fetal risk while ensuring maternal protection.
