Brief Summary
In patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) the treatment goal is revascularization of the occluded artery with the use of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). There is a large subset of patients with STEMI who also have significant disease in arteries other than the site of occlusion, and away from the culprit artery. It is estimated that up to 50% have disease of more than 50% in the non-culprit arteries. The evidence on how to treat those patients with multi vessel disease is conflicting. Earlier large-scale studies and registries have suggested early and complete revascularization is of no benefit or even harmful. More recent studies have showed the opposite of that. The CVLPRIT study showed that early complete revascularization or preventive PCI reduced primary endpoint of a composite of all cause mortality, myocardial infarction and need for repeat revascularization. The benefit was mainly due to reduced repeat revascularization in the more intensive intervention group. The PRAMI study showed very similar results as well. The use of Fractional flow Reserve (FFR) in deciding complete revascularization has also showed conflicting results so far. A previous trial showed that FFR guided intervention post STEMI increased MACE. This was conflicted with more recent study, which showed FFR guided complete revascularization improved outcome when compared with more conservative treatment of ischaemia driven intervention. In this study, the investigators are going to assess the issue of staged revascularization guided by FFR or by angiogram, compared to the standard treatment of ischaemia driven revascularization

Study Arms (3)
Conservative
NO INTERVENTIONAfter the index primary PCI. The control group will receive best medical therapy and regular follow up and only PCI for recurrent angina with evidence of inducible ischaemia.
FFR guided
ACTIVE COMPARATORFFR group will undergo FFR at 4 weeks of the index primary PCI as OPD. If FFR is less than 0.8, then PCI will be performed
angiogram guided
ACTIVE COMPARATORThe group will undergo PCI for all significant lesions more than 50
Interventions
Patients undergo Fractional Flow measurement (FFR) followed by PCI, if the FFR is less than 0.8
