Impact of Routine Invasive Physiology at Time of Angiography in Patients With Multivessel Coronary Artery Disease on Reclassification of Revascularization Strategy: Results From the DEFINE REAL Study
Conclusions
In patients with MVD and intermediate coronary lesions, invasive physiology at time of angiography reclassifies revascularization strategy in a large proportion of cases (26.9%) and investigation of more vessels is associated with higher reclassification rates.
