Brief summary

The primary objective of the POST-PCI trial is to compare the clinical outcomes of a post-percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) aggressive management strategy of routine noninvasive functional testing to a usual-care strategy of symptom-oriented functional testing in patients with high risk clinical, anatomical, and procedural characteristics who received PCI with contemporary drug-eluting stent and bioresorbable vascular scaffold.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTroutine stress testing

In the group of routine stress testing group, the preselected functional test (exercise ECG, nuclear stress testing, or stress echocardiography) will be performed at 9\ 15 months after the procedure according to the practice pattern of each participating center.

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTNo Routine stress testing

In the group of symptom oriented stress testing group, the preselected functional test (exercise ECG, nuclear stress testing, or stress echocardiography) will be performed when chest pain or angina symptom is occured after the procedure according to the practice pattern of each participating center.
