Comparing FFR‐Guided Complete Revascularization and Conservative Management for Non‐Culprit Lesions in STEMI Patients With Multivessel Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

20242 citationsOpen accessAin Shams University

Abstract

Our findings support FFR-guided PCI to manage non-culprit lesions in STEMI patients with multivessel disease as it is potentially safe, with comparable rates of bleeding, CVAs and CIN. It also improves clinical outcomes, as well as reduces revascularization and hospitalization rates. The risk of stent thrombosis remains a concern, and hence the decision making for FFR-guided complete revascularization should take into account the complexity/risk of the procedure, as well as the patients' individual co-morbidities and preferences.
