E-17 | Contemporary In-Hospital Outcomes of Chronic Total Occlusion Interventions: Update from the PROGRESS-CTO (PROspective Global REgiStry for the Study of Chronic Total Occlusion Intervention) International Registry
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BackgroundChronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been rapidly evolving.MethodsWe examined the clinical and angiographic characteristics and procedural outcomes of 10,249 CTO PCIs performed in 10,019 patients at 40 centers between 2012 and 2022.ResultsMean age was 64±10 years and 81% of the patients were men. The prevalence of prior PCI (62%), prior coronary artery bypass graft surgery (29%) and diabetes mellitus (43%) was high. Median ejection fraction was 55% (43%, 60%). The most common target vessel was the right coronary artery (53%), followed by the left anterior descending artery (26%) and left circumflex artery (19%). The target CTOs were highly complex with mean J-CTO score of 2.4 ±1.3 and PROGRESS-CTO score of 1.3 ±1. Technical and procedural success rates were high (86% and 85%, respectively) with a relatively low incidence (2%) of in-hospital major adverse cardiac events. The final successful crossing strategy was antegrade wire escalation in 55%, retrograde in 19%, and antegrade dissection re-entry in 12% (Figure). Median contrast volume, air kerma radiation dose and procedure time were 215 (150, 300) ml, 2.2 (1.2, 3.7) Gray and 114 (74, 168) minutes, respectively.ConclusionsDisclosuresK.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
