Implementation of Intravascular Coronary Lithotripsy in the United States
Disparities in lithotripsy utilization persist, driven by sex, race, insurance status, income, and geographic region. These findings emphasize the need for targeted interventions to promote equitable access to advanced cardiovascular therapies. While some disparities may reflect differences in disease prevalence, persistent inequities in treatment allocation warrant further investigation.
