ABSTRACT: Background
Coronary angiography (CAG) is the standard imaging modality for guiding percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). Intracoronary imaging techniques such as intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT), and hemodynamic parameter like fractional flow reserve (FFR) can overcome some limitations of CAG.Objective
We sought to explore the clinical outcomes of different PCI guidance modalities in the era of drug-eluting stent (DES).Methods
A network meta-analysis of 28 randomized trials and 11,860 patients undergoing different modalities-guided PCI in the era of DES was performed. Odds ratio (OR) with 95% credible interval (CrI) were calculated.Results
In comparison with CAG, IVUS was associated with a significant reduction in m
