OCT-guided Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.
Department of Cardiology, Campus Benjamin Franklin, Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin
Berlin, Germany
The primary study objective is the change in PCI strategy after pre-procedural ACR as compared to OCT imaging alone
Time frame: 20 months
Major adverse cardiac event (MACE)-rate (death, myocardial infarction, Re-angiography, Re-PCI and renal failure requiring dialysis), after recruitment.
Time frame: 30 days, 6 months, and 12 months.
Change in PCI strategy after pre-procedural OCT imaging in comparison to conventional angiography alone.
Time frame: 20 months
Longitudinal geographical miss (GM) with uncovered residual parts of "target lesion" at the proximal or distal reference segment of the stent. Detected by comparison between pre-PCI OCT with post-PCI OCT.
Time frame: 20 months
Rate of side branch occlusions (%).
Time frame: 20 months
Strategy changes based on post-procedural OCT and ACR Imaging.
Time frame: 20 months
