About The Position

The Training Program in Complex Percutaneous Coronary Interventions and Interventional Cardiology Research Fellowship at the Minneapolis Heart Institute in partnership with the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation (MHIF) is a 12-month program designed to train interventional cardiologists in complex percutaneous coronary interventions and associated clinical research. The program is designed as an advanced fellowship position for trainees who have completed a formal three-year general cardiology fellowship and interventional cardiology fellowship. Fellows will participate in the entire spectrum of complex coronary interventions, including chronic total occlusion (CTO) interventions, advanced intravascular imaging and physiology, bifurcation PCI, thrombus management, treatment of acute coronary syndromes, calcification and tortuosity, hemodynamic support and treatment of cardiogenic shock, complication prevention and management, radiation safety. Moreover, they will participate in research in complex percutaneous coronary interventions and coronary artery disease. The MHI Center for Complex Coronary Interventions was established with the goal of “making the impossible possible”, by offering high quality clinical care to even the most complex patients. The MHIF Center for Coronary Artery Disease provides cutting edge research and education in the treatment of coronary artery disease. The Center published the second edition of the “Manual of Coronary Chronic Total Occlusion Interventions: a Step by Step Approach” in 2017 and the “Manual of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention” in 2020 and created the www.ctomanual.org and www.pcimanual.org websites with >300 training videos on complex PCI and >1 million views to date.
