has pci for stable angina finally reached the bar?

set by cabg where there is clear evidence of survival benefit. There is an editorial in the print edition covering the role of angioplasty in stable angina -which has fallen very much out of favour following the publication of the COURAGE trial. Questions - is this all due to improvements in stent technology and coatings , has the role of medical therapy been better understood or is this just we have got better at understanding which patients benefit? sadian
