NCT03208153

Brief Summary

The role of a routine invasive strategy in frail patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction is currently uncertain. We hypothesize that a routine invasive strategy will improve outcomes. The aim of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a routine invasive strategy in increasing the number of days alive at home during the first year and improving cardiovascular outcomes.
