CathPCI v5.1 Education-Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) Data Collection

Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) Data Collection

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The registry’s version 5.1 update adds an optional section for documenting intra-procedure events when the ShockWave C2 AeroFly coronary intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) device is used during PCI. IVL uses acoustic shock waves to fracture vessel calcium and improve stent expansion. The presentation explains the data collection form, key fields, and event tracking, including pressure loss, dissection, perforation, hypotension, arrhythmias, and effects on implanted cardiac devices. It also clarifies the difference between significant coronary dissection and the more specific serious IVL-related dissection. Sites are encouraged to complete these fields to support real-world data, quality improvement, and research.
