Coronary sinus reducers (CSR) offer a safe and effective treatment for refractory angina, even in patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy and defibrillator (CRT-D) devices. This minimally invasive procedure improves myocardial perfusion and quality of life.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Interventional Cardiology
- Medical Devices
Background:
- Coronary sinus reducers (CSR) are stainless steel stents placed in the coronary sinus to improve blood flow to the heart muscle.
- CSR therapy aims to enhance myocardial perfusion in ischemic subendocardial regions by narrowing the coronary sinus and promoting arteriolar dilation.
