Backup support of the mother–child technique: technical considerations for the size of the mother guiding catheter
Background
“Mother–child technique” is applicable when the backup support of the guiding catheter is insufficient. We investigated the impact of the size of the mother guiding catheter on the catheter backup support using an in vitro coronary artery tree model.
Methods
The backup support was measured for the 4-in-5, 4-in-6, 4-in-7, and 4-in-8 systems as well as for the 5-in-6, 5-in-7, and 5-in-8 systems.
