Multiple studies published over the past decade support an endovascular-first approach to management of femoral-popliteal artery disease. Data supporting use of drug-coated balloon angioplasty, atherectomy and stenting have grown in concert. We sought to describe national trends in utilization of each intervention by provider specialty and clinical setting.

4:12 PM Abstract No. 316 Variations in endovascular management of infrapopliteal arterial disease: national trends from the Medicare procedure database

Growing evidence for the efficacy of endovascular interventions for infrapopliteal atherosclerotic arterial disease has led to increased utilization of these procedures. We aim to characterize developing national trends in use of balloon angioplasty (PTA), stenting, and atherectomy across clinical settings and provider specialties.
Abstract No. 665 Association of inferior vena cava filter placement and mortality among in-patients with pulmonary embolism after adjusting for immortal time bias

Several large observational studies have suggested short-term mortality benefit with IVC filter placement in patients admitted with acute PE. However, these studies have failed to adjust for immortal time bias, i.e., the time between admission and filter placement during which death can only occur in the non-filter group.
