The role of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the management of chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) has long been a subject of debate. Numerous clinical trials have demonstrated limited benefit from revascularisa-ion on hard clinical endpoints among patients with CCS. The latest of these studies, the International Study Of Comparative Health Effectiveness With Medical And Invasive Approaches (ISCHEMIA) trial, found no significant reduction in mortality or myocardial infarction from revascularisation in patients with CCS when compared with optimal medical therapy (OMT) alone. At face value, these results suggest that patients with significant ischaemia on stress testing no longer need to be rushed to the catheterisation labora-ory. Instead, the focus should be on the instigation of guideline-recommended OMT, with PCI reserved for patients who remain symptomatic despite OMT. This article provides a review of the current evidence, including the findings of the ISCHEMIA trial, and assesses the potential implications for future clinical practice. Full article

Abstract
Coronary vasospasm is often considered a rather benign condition. But one needs to take into account that they can trigger severe myocardial ischaemia causing ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac arrest.

Coronary vasospasm is often considered a rather benign condition. But one needs to take into account that they can trigger severe myocardial ischaemia causing ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac arrest. Introduction of effective treatments, including calcium channel blockers are key. But individual response to various calcium channel blockers may differ. Full article
