How I Deal With...SVGs Simon Redwood St Thomas’
Mr PM, 55 years old • CABG 1993 • SVG – LAD • SVG – OM2 • 8F LCB
Laser Catheter 0.9, 1.4. 1.7. 2.0 mm diameter
Particle Size post 308 nm ablation 5% : > 5 - <12 micron 50% : < 1 micron 45% : 1 – 5 micron Erytrocyte = 7µ
Saline Infusion Protocol In order to obtain an optimal contact between catheter tip and lesion it is mandatory to implement the saline infusion protocol. 15-20 ml saline bolus after each contrast injection 15-20 ml saline flush during every laseractivation (5 sec)
Saline Infusion Images taken from the DVD: Critical Limb Ischemia, New Techniques For Complex Interventions, Prof. Dr. Giancarlo Biamino - Dr. Dierk Scheinert (Herzzentrum Leipzig) Michael Jaff, MD (Lennox Hill, NY)
