Summary

Many patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) have multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD), which is associated with poor clinical outcomes. However, there have been few studies regarding revascularization strategy in patients with NSTEMI and MVD. Therefore, we planned to perform prospective, open-label, randomized trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of immediate complete revascularization (percutaneous coronary intervention \[PCI\] for both infarct-related artery \[IRA\] and non-IRA during index PCI) compared to staged PCI strategy of non-IRA (PCI for IRA followed by non-IRA PCI after several days). PCI procedure at non-IRA with diameter stenosis between 50 and 69% should be conducted with the aid of fractional flow reserve (FFR), and non-IRA with diameter stenosis ≥ 70% will be revascularized without FFR.

  • Multi-Vessel Coronary Artery Stenosis
  • Multi Vessel Coronary Artery Disease

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Immediate complete revascularization

Patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and multivessel disease will be randomized after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for infarct-related artery (IRA). All patients will be randomized to immediate complete revascularization group or staged revascularization group by 1:1 fashion. Immediate complete revascularization group will receive simultaneous PCI for both IRA and non-IRA during index PCI. Non-IRA lesion which have equal or more than 70% diameter stenosis by visual estimation will be revascularized without fractional flow reserve (FFR) evaluation. Non-IRA lesion with diameter stenosis 50-69% by visual estimation will be evaluated using FFR device. In case of FFR value more than 0.8, non-IRA lesion wll be deferred without PCI. If FFR value was equal or less than 0.8, non-IRA lesion will be revascularized.

PROCEDURE

Staged in-hospital complete revascularization

Patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and multivessel disease will be randomized after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for infarct-related artery (IRA). All patients will be randomized to immediate complete revascularization group or staged revascularization group by 1:1 fashion. Staged in-hospital complete revascularization group will receive staged PCI for non-IRA in other day (during hospitalization) after PCI for IRA. Non-IRA lesion which have equal or more than 70% diameter stenosis by visual estimation will be revascularized without fractional flow reserve (FFR) evaluation. Non-IRA lesion with diameter stenosis 50-69% by visual estimation will be evaluated using FFR device. In case of FFR value more than 0.8, non-IRA lesion wll be deferred without PCI. If FFR value was equal or less than 0.8, non-IRA lesion will be revascularized.
