The greatest teacher, failure is.
We are what they grow beyond.
Seven ways a case goes wrong
Each one has an algorithm. Over two days we work through all of them, with the operators who have been there.
-
Access, safely
Vascular Access
Master radial, femoral, transcaval and axillary access, and its complications.
-
Structure & valve
Structural Heart
Manage the complications of today’s most demanding structural procedures.
-
Anticipate the trap
Atherectomy Complications
Anticipate and manage the pitfalls of rotational and orbital atherectomy.
-
Regain control
Device Entrapment
Free trapped wires, balloons and stents without losing hard-won ground.
-
Reverse the spiral
Acute Closure
Recognise and reverse abrupt vessel closure before it cascades into disaster.
-
Read it early
Hemodynamic Collapse
Recognise the shock spiral early and respond with a clear, shared algorithm.
-
Stop the bleed
Coronary Perforation
Wire across or not, coil and embolise with confidence to stop the bleeding.
The third edition
Complications are the part of this work nobody discusses in public. That is exactly why we do.
It is our privilege to welcome you to the third edition of the Asia Interventional Complications Course. Over two days at the Hyatt Regency Chennai, we come together around the moments that shape every operator, and the expertise that turns them into confident, decisive care.
Alongside faculty from across the world, we share the algorithms, the instincts and the systems that make great outcomes repeatable. One session is given over entirely to mental health and the psychology of improvement, because the operator is the second patient in every complication.
Bring your cases and your curiosity. You'll leave with sharper skills, greater confidence, and a network to grow with for the rest of your career.

Dr. Arun Kalyanasundaram
MD, MPH, FACC, FSCAI · Chennai
Trained in interventional cardiology at the Cleveland Clinic, Dr. Arun Kalyanasundaram, known to almost everyone as Dr. AK, belongs to a very small group of American board-certified interventional cardiologists practising in India. He performs the most intricate angioplasties, including Chronic Total Occlusion PCI, and also trained in structural interventions and peripheral angioplasty at the Cleveland Clinic.
Led by the field's finest
Course directors who have each been where you are. Two days, and every one of them has had the case you are still thinking about.
