In this webinar Pierfrancesco Agostoni provides:

  • An overview of how MHA simplifies a complex procedure such as CTO PCI, without losing its efficiency and safety profile demonstrating the technique via a selection of video demonstrations.
  • An account of how MHA achieves forearm access, downsizes the access site French size to the minimum needed, and only uses dual injection in selected cases.
  • New data demonstrating the feasibility and safety of MHA.
