New treatment option for Myocardial Infarction, Acute
Official title Timing of FFR-guided PCI for Non-IRA in NSTEMI and MVD (OPTION-NSTEMI)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04968808
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Many patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) have multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD), which is associated with poor clinical outcomes. However, there have been few studies regarding revascularization strategy in patients with NSTEMI and MVD.

Ages 19 and older
You may be able to join if
