The Comparison of Strategies to PREPARE Severely CALCified Coronary Lesions Trial (PREPARE-CALC): A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial of Rotational Atherectomy Versus Cutting/Scoring Balloon in Severely Calcified Coronary Lesions
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Rotational Atherectomy and Cutting/Scoring Balloon for Coronary Atherosclerosis Due to Severely Calcified Coronary Lesion. Completed, enrolled 200 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the success of lesion preparation with either rotational atherectomy or cutting/scoring balloons as well as the long term effects of a hybrid sirolimus-eluting stent in an angiographically well-defined group of patients with complex calcified coronary lesions.
