NCT01200693

Brief Summary

BACKGROUND: Bifurcated lesions are a challenging subset in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). The selection of the type of drug-eluting stents (DES) and the technique for stent implantation have not been clarified. The side-branch (SB) is emerging as critical point, accounting for more than a third of the significant restenosis in the DES era. A series of data supports the adoption of a conservative strategy: stenting the main vessel (MV) only and reserving a conservative approach on the SB. Yet, the clinical relevance in terms of inducible ischemia of sub-optimal angiographic result has not been clarified. AIMS OF THE STUDY: The aims of the present study are:

  • Group O (optimal SB angiographic result): post-PCI SB area stenosis\<50%
  • Group S (sub-optimal SB angiographic result): post-PCI SB area stenosis\>50%. For the comparison among SES and EES, data will be obtained from the randomized trial SEA-SIDE (NCT00697372). PRIMARY STUDY END-POINTS.
  • COMPARISON BETWEEN ZES, SES AND EES:
  • SB-RELATED ISCHAEMIA of Group O vs Group S in patients with complete revascularization: inducible ischemia at the early exercise test or occurrence of early spontaneous ischemia related to the SB.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)
