  • Complete Revascularization in Patients With STEMI and Multi-Vessel Disease: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

    Highlights

    • Patients with acute coronary syndrome usually have multi-vessel disease.
    • Revascularization of the Culprit lesion is paramount, while revascularization of the non-culprit lesions is still debatable.
    • Complete revascularization was associated with decrease in MACE, cardiovascular mortality and repeat revascularization.

    Abstract

    Background

    Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the treatment of choice for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, efficacy of complete vs culprit only revascularization in patients with STEMI and multivessel disease remains unclear.
