Does multivessel disease affect reperfusion success and clinical outcomes in patients undergoing primary PCI for AMI?
Multivessel disease in AMI patients undergoing primary PCI is associated with reduced reperfusion success and worse prognosis.
Patients with extensive CAD in vessels remote from the infarct-related artery have reduced reperfusion success and an adverse prognosis following primary PCI in AMI. Future studies regarding the optimal treatment of patients with multivessel disease and AMI are warranted.
