Summary

This trial tests a device to clear plaque from blocked coronary arteries to improve blood flow before stenting.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with coronary artery disease, including those with stable or unstable angina and silent ischemia suitable for PCI. Participants must have normal levels of certain heart enzymes before the procedure and a left ventricular ejection fraction greater than 25%. They must consent to participate.
What is being tested?
The study tests the Shockwave C2+ 2Hz Coronary IVL Catheter's safety and effectiveness in treating calcified, narrowed arteries in the heart before stenting. It uses shockwaves to modify arterial calcium.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort at the catheter insertion site, bleeding, blood vessel complications, irregular heartbeats, or reactions related to pressure changes from shockwaves.
