OBJECTIVES - We assessed the impact of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)/optical coherence tomography (OCT) on outcomes of patients who underwent orbital atherectomy.
METHODS - Of the 458 consecutive real-world patients in our retrospective multicenter registry, a total of 138 patients (30.1%) underwent orbital atherectomy with IVUS/OCT. The primary safety endpoint was the rate of 30-day major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events, comprised of death, myocardial infarction (MI), target-vessel revascularization (TVR), and stroke.
