A process using extreme cold (cryo) to destroy or damage cardiac tissue
Interrupts the electrical pathways that interfere with normal flow of hearts electrical pathway
Cryoablation What is it?!
![Page 11: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
A liquid form of nitrous oxide is delivered through a catheter directed by the electrophysiologist to the precise pathway identified
The tip of the catheter is as low as -75 degrees C
Cryoablation What is it?!
![Page 12: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Its all in the Heart
Electrical System Catheter Placement
![Page 13: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Cryoablation
![Page 14: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Difference between Cryo and Radiofrequency ablation
Cryo uses cold
Less likely to cause blood clots
Takes several minutes to do a treatment “lesion”
Cryomapping can test spot first to determine efficacy, tissue can be rewarmed
Minimizes risk of damage to critical structures
![Page 15: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Difference between Cryo and Radiofrequency ablation
Radiofrequency uses heat
Well established success rate
Takes 60 seconds to make a “burn”
Doesn’t allow testing; once tissue burned it stays burned
Higher chance of needing permanent pacemaker
![Page 16: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Atrial arrhythmias including
Atrial fibrillation (only in open heart institutes)
Atrial flutter
AV node reentry tachycardia
All super ventricular tachycardia
Ventricular tachycardia
Cryoablation uses
![Page 17: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
FFR-Fractional Flow Reserve
IVUS- intravascular ultrasound
A look inside coronary arteries
![Page 18: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Measures blood pressure and flow through a specific part of a coronary artery
Helps the Interventional Cardiologist make a decision about whether a stenosis seen on x-ray is significantly obstructing blood flow
FFR
![Page 19: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
A FFR measurement of Less than 0.80 corresponds with inducible ischemia and will require intervention
Measurements above 0.80 can be treated with medical therapy
FFR (cont.)
![Page 20: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
FFR
![Page 21: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
FFR is ratio of maximum blood flow distal to a stenotic lesion to normal maximum flow in the same vessel
Wire is inserted passed the lesion. Tip of wire contains sensor.
Measure the blood flow at “normal” state.
Give adenosine to induce maximal blood flow (similar to stress test)
Measure blood flow at peak hyperemia
![Page 22: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Fewer “unneccessary” placement of stents
After one year in the FAME study death, nonfatal myocardial infarction and repeat revascularization wer lower when using FFR. Hospital stays were slighter shorter (3.4 vs 3.7 days) and procedural costs were less ( $5,332 vs $6,007)
Benefits to FFR
![Page 23: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Coronary catheter with a miniature ultrasound probe on tip.
Used to determine the amount of plaque present on the arterial wall and measure the amount of lumen narrowing.
IVUS
![Page 24: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
IVUS allows interventional cardiologist to “see” the inner wall of the artery and use the information to guide decisions on size and length of stent to be used
Post stent deployment shows if all struts are flush against wall to prevent turbulent blood flow
IVUS (cont.)

Bioabsorbable Stents
![Page 29: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Abbott Absorb Stent
![Page 30: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Bare Metal stents have risk of late thrombus up to years after implantation
Bioabsorbable stents absorbed by body over period of 3 years and reduce risk of late thrombus
Long term use of dual antiplatelet therapy reduced, less concern about stopping therapy for noncardiac surgery
Benefits
![Page 31: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Easier to use up and coming Cardiac CT and MRI technology, bioabsorbable stents do not obscure the vessel as much as the metal stents
Metal stents interfere somewhat with the vessel remodeling that occurs after a heart attack and stenting, Bioabsorbable less likely to interfere with body’s own healing
Benefits (cont.)
![Page 32: New Cardiac Technologies - Hagerstown Hospital€¦ · New Cardiac Technologies Melva Meminger MSN, RN, CCRN Bigger is not always better: the new smaller Loop recorders First we burned](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060307/5f09b4df7e708231d428207e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Bioabsorbable stents support vessel for healing and then disappear
Metal stents limit the vessels ability to constrict and relax
Multiple metal stents in arteries make future coronary bypass grafting more difficult
