Brief Summary

The current role of the rotational atherectomy is for non-dilatable coronary lesions and for severely calcified lesions that may interfere with optimal stent expansion. Severely calcified coronary lesions are associated with worse outcomes. In this regard, chronic kidney disease is associated with severely calcified coronary arteries. Some evidence suggests that elective rotational atherectomy used by experienced operators can be safe and effective, minimizing time and complications for patients with heavily calcified lesions. However, there is no direct randomized comparison between rotational atherectomy and angioplasty alone in the setting of chronic renal failure and with intravascular ultrasound assessment for detecting severely calcified coronary arteries.

    The costs included the items, supplies, and time used in the catheterization laboratory, and expenses caused by complications during hospital length of stay and 30 days after the procedure.

    Periprocedural and 30 days after the procedure

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • The healthcare cost analysis between elective atherectomy and conventional atherectomy (bailout)

    Follow-up 5 years.

  • Contrast-induced nephropathy

    48 hours after the procedure.

  • Stent placement success

    Periprocedural

  • The amount of angioplasty balloons used in each group before stent deployment.

    Periprocedural

  • Procedure and fluoroscopy times

    Periprocedural

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Elective Rotational Atherectomy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Operators can decide elective use of rotational atherectomy (RA) or conventional angioplasty according to the calcification patterns of the coronary lesion evaluated by Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) or by angiography if the IVUS cannot cross the lesion. Procedure is performed with a Rotablator system, consisting of a rotating olive-shaped burr whose leading hemisphere is coated with microscopic diamond chips. The proximal end of the device has a housing unit containing the burr advancer, a fiberoptic tachometer cable, an irrigation port, and a nitrogen gas delivery hose, which permits the rapidly rotating of the burr. The RA catheter is introduced into the coronary artery over a stainless steel 0.09-inch wire to cross the lesion, then advanced with a slow pecking motion at a speed of 160,000 to 190,000 rpm with each ablation run \<15 seconds is performed. Burr size was with a burr/vessel ratio of 0.7. After RA, all patients received IVUS-guided percutaneous coronary intervention.

Device: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)

Bailout Rotational Atherectomy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The operators began with conventional angioplasty (non-compliant balloon dilatation) regardless of the calcification patterns in the coronary lesion, and rotational atherectomy (RA) can be used only as a bailout.

Device: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)

Interventions

Optimal stent expansion by IVUS-guided PCI.
