Listen to physician experts as they discuss the results of DEFINE PCI.
- The DEFINE PCI study of 467 patients with angiographically successful PCI found that 24% left the cath lab with residual ischemia.
- Of the patients with residual ischemia, 81.6% of these were caused by an untreated focal stenosis (that was angiographically inapparent) that could potentially be further optimized by additional PCI.
- What does this mean for physiologic guidance as a planning tool?
