[Clinical Information]
- Patient initials or identifier number:
L K
-Relevant clinical history and physical exam:
This45 year old gentleman- a known case of old AWMI (post PTCA to LAD in 2011)presented to us with severe retrosternal chest pain &dyspnoea a/w sweating for last 3 hours. The patient wasin Killip Class IV with cardiogenic shockand recurrent VT. vECG: LBBB, Diffuse ST depressionin all leads except aVR & V1 & ST elevationin I,aVL & aVR v2 DEcho suggestive of severe LV Systolic Dysfunction( LVEF-20%),SevereMR, Moderate TR ,Moderate PAH -Relevant test results prior to catheterization:

Patient was put on Intra-aortic balloonpump. JL 3.5- 7F guiding catheter was engaged inleft cusp near LM ostium After crossing the lesion & serial predilatation with semicompliant balloons, 4.0x 23 Xience Prime DES was implanted from LM to LAD covering the ISRsegment. Post dilatation with proximal optimization was done using4.5x 8 mm NC sprinter balloon |
