Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall percent agreement

    The proportion of patients who received unanimous decision recommendations from the heart team

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Kappa value of heart team decision-making

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Inappropriate decision rate

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Compliance rate in real-world treatment

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Reproducibility of decision-making

    At 1-month after first phase of heart team meeting

Study Arms (2)

optimal heart team group

EXPERIMENTAL

Heart teams in this group will be established according to the optimal heart team protocol. Each team consists of two interventional cardiologists and two cardiac surgeons. Team members will be trained systematically before the heart team meeting.

Behavioral: optimal heart team protocol

conventional heart team group

NO INTERVENTION

Heart teams in this group will be established according to the basic elements recommended by guidelines. Each team consists of an interventional cardiologist, a cardiac surgeon, and a non-interventional cardiologist. No team training will be held before the heart team meeting.

Interventions

Heart teams in the experimental group will be established and trained based on the optimal heart team implementation protocol. The protocol included instructions on specialist selection, specialist training, team composition, team training and formal implementation precess.
