Remote proctoring for high-risk coronary interventions with mechanical circulatory support during COVID-19 pandemic and beyond

Sumario:Remote proctoring by advanced digital technologies may help to overcome pandemic, geographic, and resource-related constraints for mentoring and educating interventional cardiology skills. We present a case series of patients undergoing high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention (HR-PCI) with mechanical circulatory support (MCS) guided by remote proctoring to gain insights into a streaming technology platform with regard to video/audio quality, visibility of all structural and imaging details, and delay in transmission. According to our experience, remote proctoring appears to be a reliable, quick, and resource-conserving way to disseminate, educate and improve MCS-supported HR-PCI with implications far beyond the COVID-19 pandemic.
