Abstract

To perform intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)–based real-time 3-dimensional wiring in chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention, we devised a tip detection method and developed AnteOwl WR (AO)-IVUS, which is an upgraded version of Navifocus WR (Navi)-IVUS with an added pull back transducer system. We compared the procedural outcomes of AO-IVUS–based 3-dimensional wiring using the tip detection method (n = 30) and Navi-IVUS–based conventional wiring (n = 17) in chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention. The success rate of IVUS-guided wiring was markedly improved in the AO-IVUS group compared with the Navi-IVUS group (93% vs 59% of cases, respectively; P = 0.007). In cases of successful IVUS-guided wiring, the IVUS-guided wiring time was markedly improved in the AO-IVUS group compared with the Navi-IVUS group (9 ± 8 minutes vs 24 ± 26 minutes, respectively; P = 0.001). There were 2 successful cases of tip detection-antegrade dissection and re-entry in the AO-IVUS group.
