Implication

May aid side branch protection in bifurcation PCI; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.

Structured PICO

Does the single-guide, two-wire technique protect side branches during angioplasty at coronary bifurcations?

P
Population
Patients undergoing angioplasty at coronary bifurcations
I
Intervention
Single-guide, two-wire technique using a single guiding catheter, an exchange wire, and a conventional dilatation catheter and guidewire
O
Outcome
Protection of side branches at risk from occlusion during dilatation of a primary coronary segment

The single-guide, two-wire technique provides a method to protect side branches during coronary bifurcation angioplasty.
