Article Synopsis
- - The study investigated the effectiveness of using a SyncVision/iFR (S-iFR)-guided strategy for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with complex coronary lesions, compared to a standard angiography-guided approach.
- - 100 patients were randomized into two groups: one using S-iFR guidance and the other using angiography; the main focus was on the implanted stent length and target vessel failure (TVF) after one year.
- - Results showed that the S-iFR group had a shorter total stent length but also a slight increase in TVF, although this increase was not statistically significant.
Introduction: There is current controversy surrounding the benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of chronic total coronary occlusions (CTO). We aimed to evaluate the impact of complete percutaneous revascularization on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with CTO.
Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted of consecutive patients referred for invasive coronary angiography at a single center between January 2018 and December 2019 and at least a CTO.
