Summary

This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, blinded, controlled clinical study in patients with planned primary valvular surgery and comorbid coronary artery lesions with diameter stenosis of ≥ 50%, to compare the effectiveness of an Quantitative Flow Ratio (QFR)-guided revascularization strategy and a coronary angiography (CAG)-guided revascularization strategy in preventing the incidence of composite outcome (MACE-5, including all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, unplanned coronary revascularization, and new renal failure requiring dialysis) within 30 days after surgery. The study hypothesis is that the QFR-guided strategy can reduce the incidence of the MACE-5 within 30 days after surgery, as compared with the CAG-guided strategy.

Conditions

  • Primary Valvular Heart Disease With Comorbid Coronary Artery Disease
  • Planned to Undergo Elective On-pump Valve Surgery Due to Primary Mitral and/or Aortic Valvular Heart Disease

Interventions

DEVICE

QFR-guided strategy

In this study, the QFR-guided strategy will be applied to in the QFR group in which calculation of the QFR values of all target coronary arteries with lesions with diameter stenosis of ≥ 50% (visual estimation) and with suitability to CABG revascularization will be carried out. If QFR ≤ 0.80, then simultaneous CABG revascularization of target blood vessels will be carried out. If QFR \> 0.80, then no CABG revascularization of target blood vessels will be carried out.

OTHER

CAG-guided strategy

In this study, CAG-guided strategy will be used for the control group, i.e., in accordance with current guideline recommendations, all target coronary arteries with lesions with diameter stenosis of ≥ 50% (visual estimation) and suited for CABG revascularization will undergo CABG revascularization.
