NCT05324683

Brief Summary

The study aims to assess contemporary practice in OCT use during routine interven-tional practice and to assess the impact of the MLD-MAX algorithm on real-world PCI in a large unselected European all-comer-study cohort.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Stent expansion: number of participants with optimal / acceptable / unacceptable stent expansion

    Stent expansion is defined by the MSA achieved in the proximal and distal stented segments relative to their respective reference lumen areas. Stent expansion will be categorised as follows: Optimal stent expansion (y/n); acceptable stent expansion (y/n); unacceptable stent expansion (y/n); post-PCI stent expansion (%).

    At baseline

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Minimal Stent Area (MSA)

    At baseline

  • Mean stent expansion

    At baseline

  • Intra-stent plaque protrusion and thrombus: number of major and minor protusion area / stent area

    At baseline

  • Number of participants with untreated reference segmant disease

    At baseline

  • Number of participants with major and minor edge dissections

    At baseline

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients with evidence of myocardial ischemia (e.g. stable angina, silent ischemia, unstable angina, or acute myocardial infarction) un-dergoing OCT-guided lesion evaluation.

You may qualify if:

  • Age ≥ 18 years
  • Patients with evidence of myocardial ischemia (e.g. stable angi-na, silent ischemia, unstable angina, or acute myocardial infarc-tion) undergoing OCT-guided lesion evaluation (OCT-scan using the devices must be performed either to guide PCI (following the MLD-MAX-algorithm) or to investigate a coronary lesion for fur-ther clinical treatment)
  • Written informed consent (defined as legally effective, docu-mented confirmation of a subject's (or their legally authorized representative or guardian) voluntary agreement to participate in a particular clinical study) to participate in this clinical inves-tigation

You may not qualify if:

  • none
