Brief summary
STICOS will test the hypothesis that residual jeopardized myocardium, late gadolinium enhancement, and non-ischemic substrate after revascularization is associated with postoperative adverse cardiovascular events such as heart failure , readmission, or death. This study will look at whether certain heart tissue abnormalities seen on MRI scans can help predict serious health problems after heart procedures like stents or bypass surgery.
Detailed description
iLVSD (ischemic left ventricular dysfunction) is a leading cause of heart failure (HF) and death. It is widely treated via coronary revascularization despite limited understanding of determinants of revascularization response. Viability imaging (to differentiate infarcted from salvageable myocardium) has been widely touted as an effective means to predict revascularization response. However prior multicenter trials have derived negative conclusions using heterogenous data with respect to both image modality and analysis. Data by our investigators and others indicate that infarct transmurality on CMR strongly impacts remodeling and prognosis after coronary revascularization. The investigators have also developed new methods (dark-blood late gadolinium enhancement-CMR) to assess infarction and shown ischemia (hypoperfusion) and non-ischemic substrate on CMR to strongly impact LV remodeling. Despite conceptual rationale, utility of multiparametric CMR to elucidate mechanism and determinants of remodeling and differential outcomes after percutaneous and surgical revascularization of iLVSD has yet to be tested. This prospective study will test the hypothesis that residual jeopardized (viable but hypoperfused) myocardium, LGE, and non-ischemic substrate after coronary revascularization (by PCI or CABG) is associated with postoperative adverse cardiovascular events
Interventions
Cardiac MRI, also known as cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed pictures of the heart and its surrounding structures
