Coronary Artery Stenosis
Conditions
Keywords
intravascular ultrasound, fractional flow reserve
Brief summary
This study is a prospective, randomized, multi-center, open label trial to compare the clinical outcomes and effectiveness of Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) versus Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) guided Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with intermediate coronary artery lesion.
Detailed description
This trial is a prospective, randomized, open label, two arm designed multi-center trial. When diagnostic coronary angiogram shows that the target lesion is intermediate stenosis, IVUS and/or FFR will be performed in order to decide PCI or defer by 1:1 randomization. The patients would be followed up to 2 years clinically.
Interventions
minimal lumen area on Intravascular ultrasound
Fractional flow reserve measured by pressure wire
