PCI is commonly used to open blocked arteries to treat significant myocardial ischemia , which occurs when the heart muscle does not get enough oxygenated blood. The idea behind preventive PCI is that a stent could help to stabilize a high-risk plaque lesion and thus reduce its risk of rupture before a heart attack occurs.

The researchers randomized 522 surgical PAD patients who hadn’t been diagnosed with CAD to either undergo HeartFlow FFRCT testing or receive standard preoperative cardiac evaluations. Meanwhile, the usual care group’s coronary ischemia statuses remained unknown (because they didn’t test for it).

3 Patients with ASCVD are at a higher risk for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) including heart attack or myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and cardiovascular (CV) death.4 7 Research has shown inflammation plays a significant role in the development of atherosclerosis and ASCVD,8-10 and even the formation of plaque.11

The second reason is commonly referred to as a ‘Heart Attack’ or acute coronary syndrome. The decision to use a stent here is usually clear and is associated with fewer deaths and heart attacks 1. years, there was no difference between these two groups in terms of death from any cause or heart attacks.

The impact of this narrowing can ultimately result in angina (chest pain), which has been shown to double the risk of major cardiovascular events,1 as well as myocardial infarction ( heart attack ) or even death.
