German Epicardial Collateral CTO Registry

German Multicentre Registry to Evaluate the Technical Feasibilty of Epicardial Collateral Connections in CTO PCI

The EPIC registry is an observational multicentre registry evaluating the technical feasibility of retrograde CTO-PCI using epicardial collateral connections. It will evaluate the frequency, effectiveness, safety and outcomes of patients who underwent CTO-PCI using this approach. The EPIC registry retrieves data from CTO centres across Germany.

The EPIC registry is the first German-wide observational multicentre registry evaluating the technical feasibility, clinical success and safety of retrograde CTO-PCI using epicardial collateral connections. The EPIC registry retrieves data from CTO centres across Germany. All patients will be followed-up to 30 days after inclusion.

Inclusion Criteria:

• All patients undergoing retrograde CTO-PCI using epicardial collateral connections during daily clinical practice.

Exclusion Criteria:

• None.
