EXCEL trial: Repeat revascularization after CABG and PCI for left main disease

August 21, 2020

EXCEL trial: Repeat revascularization after CABG vs PCI

Repeat revascularization occurs more often following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) than coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The need for repeat revascularization is a less important clinical endpoint than death, stroke or myocardial infarction. However, it can have an impact on quality of life, risk of hospitalization and mortality. In the present study of … [Read more...] about EXCEL trial: Repeat revascularization after CABG and PCI for left main disease

iMODERN: When to treat non-culprit lesions in STEMI

June 19, 2020

Multi-vessel disease treatment strategy

The iMODERN trial (“iFR Guided Multi-vessel Revascularization During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Acute Myocardial Infarction.”) trial is an ongoing multinational study. This study will provide important knowledge on the best practice for the assessment and treatment of multi-vessel disease involving ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. We … [Read more...] about iMODERN: When to treat non-culprit lesions in STEMI

COACT trial: Immediate vs delayed angiography in non-STEMI patients after cardiac arrest

May 7, 2020

COACT trial - Immediate vs delayed angiography

Ischemic heart disease is the most frequent cause of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, a leading cause of death in Europe and the United States. The COACT (Coronary Angiography after Cardiac Arrest) trial investigated whether immediate angiography after resuscitation from cardiac arrest would have better outcome as compared to delayed angiography in terms of overall survival at … [Read more...] about COACT trial: Immediate vs delayed angiography in non-STEMI patients after cardiac arrest
