“BTK Interventions”?
           BTK disease = claudication and CLI

                 BTK interventions = CLI

  Main goal of CLI therapy = functional limb preservation

1) Revascularization 2) Extravascular Care 3) Surveillance

                  All 3 must be optimal
CLI: Flow (Entity and Time) Demand
1. A wound to heal requires higher blood flow beyond the basal metabolic need
2. In absence of wounds (or after wounds are healed), blood flow can be suboptimal
3. An incidental trauma triggers an immediate need of incremental blood flow
4. Other factors triggering sustained blood flow: suboptimal wound care, nondirect flow
   to the wound related artery
5. Optimal revascularization (and durable patency) represents an insurance policy
   against multifactorial and unpredictable CLI triggers of incremental blood flow

DES vs DEB in BTK Interventions
                  Conclusion I
• Patency is necessary but not sufficient for wound healing
  and ultimately limb salvage
• Durable and sustained blood flow to the wound is an
  insurance against the variety of concomitant factors and
  unpredictable triggers leading to either wound
  persistence, deterioration, or recurrence
• DES in lesions with a length up to 10 cm may be the
  solution to achieve the necessary patency levels
• DEB are the preferred revascularization for lesions
  longer than 10 cm and foot artery lesions
Role of DES in BTK Interventions
                 Conclusion II

• The significant TLR reduction and higher
  wound healing rates currently observed
  with DES and DEB as compared to POBA
  and BMS likely position this technology to
  demonstrate a high cost-effectiveness
  benefit as a general approach
