Equity in Modifying Plaque of Women With Undertreated Calcified Coronary Artery Disease: Design and Rationale of EMPOWER CAD study
The EMPOWER CAD study will enroll real-world female patients. Adjunctive use of IVL with other calcium modification technologies will be assessed, as well as a subcohort analysis of patients with optical coherence tomography imaging. The EMPOWER CAD study therefore directly addresses the underrepresentation of women in interventional cardiology clinical trials.
