Clinical impact of OCT-derived suboptimal stent implantation parameters and definitions.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

Despite growing evidence supporting the clinical utility of optical coherence tomography (OCT) guidance during percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs), there is no common agreement as to the optimal stent implantation parameters that enhance clinical outcome.

Methods and results

We retrospectively examined the predictive accuracy of suboptimal stent implantation definitions proposed from the CLI-OPCI II, ILUMIEN-IV OPTIMAL PCI, and FORZA studies for the long-term risk of device-oriented cardiovascular events (DoCE) in the population of large all-comers CLI-OPCI project. A total of 1020 patients undergoing OCT-guided drug-eluting stent implantation in the CLI-OPCI registry with a median follow-up of 809 (quartiles 414-1376) days constituted the study population.
