Brief summary
Clinical study that aims to evaluate a new strategy using the SYNTAX II Score calculator in the functional assessment of patients with new coronary 3-vessel-disease who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
Detailed description
The purpose of the SYNTAX II Trial is to investigate the management of de-novo 3-vessel-disease in order to prospectively assess which patients would have at least comparable short and long term clinical outcomes between coronary artery bypass graft and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), using contemporary PCI practice. In SYNTAX II the effectiveness of a contemporary stent (designed with thinner struts, biocompatible and biodegradable polymer, and a limus based drug), the use of pressure wire assessment of lesions to allow for ischemia-driven revascularisation, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) guidance to optimise drug eluting stent deployment, and the treatment of (chronic) total occlusion lesions with contemporary techniques, will be compared against PCI practice in the original SYNTAX trial. The proposed study would involve the SYNTAX Score II to prospectively recruit subjects on the grounds of patient safety
Interventions
A coronary non-invasive Multi Slice Computed Tomography will be performed in patients
Pressure-derived, adenosine-free index on physiological assessment of stenosis severity
Pressure-derived index on physiological assessment of stenosis severity
Allows the application of ultrasound technology to see from inside blood vessels out through the surrounding blood column, visualizing the inner wall of blood vessels

Outcome results
Umber of Participants With Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events (MACCE)
MACCE is defined as: all-cause death; cerebrovascular event (stroke); documented myocardial infarction or all-cause revascularization
Time frame: 1 year
Population: All patients enrolled in the SYNTAX II single-arm study were compared with a historical cohort selected from the SYNTAX I PCI arm (NCT00114972). Patients had three-vessel disease at presentation and qualified to enter the study based on equipoise to undergo either PCI or CABG according to the SYNTAX score II calculator (www.syntaxscore.org).
