Overview
Through the case experience of an international faculty of CTO PCI experts, the emerging understanding of the everyday efficiency of the unique ReCross dual OTW lumen microcatheter is demonstrated.
The experts consider their personal CTO PCI algorithms, and how they believe ReCross’s versatility allows the device to contribute to antegrade success in the widely recognised EuroCTO Club and Hybrid algorithms respectively.
Key Learning Objectives
- Understand the versatility of the unique ReCross dual OTW microcatheter in CTO PCI
- Discover, via case demonstrations, how the ReCross device creates a bridge between commonly used CTO PCI algorithms, for example EuroCTO and Hybrid
- Learn from CTO PCI experts how, in their experience, there is a potential to increase antegrade success rates with this device
- Learn how the accessible versatility of ReCross has the potential role for operators expanding their skill set from Antegrade Wire Escalation to parallel wiring and ADR
