Stereotaxis and Chronic Total Occlusion

Chronic Total Coronary Occlusion Clinical Trial

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Wire-crossing of a chronic total coronary occlusion (CTO) is time-consuming and limited by the amount of contrast agent and time of radiation exposure. Magnetic wire navigation might accelerate wire-crossing by maintaining a coaxial vessel orientation. This study compares magnetic with conventional wire navigation for recanalization of CTOs.
