Summary

STEMI patients with multivessel disease will be randomized to complete PCI versus PCI driven by high risk criteria of plaques evaluated with OCT

Conditions

  • Acute Coronary Syndrome

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

OCT - optical coherence tomography

The principle by which OCT works is similar to ultrasound, although light waves close to infrared are used instead of ultrasounds. In practice, the light waves, emitted into the vessel through a special catheter positioned in the coronary artery, meet the surrounding structures and are partly absorbed and partly reflected by them. The reflected waves are picked up by a sensor positioned on the catheter and analyzed through software that produces images visible live on a special console.
