Predicting Benefit From Revascularization in Patients With Ischemic Heart Failure
Key result
Revascularization strategies (bypass surgery vs percutaneous) were evaluated for a 62-year-old male presenting with ischemic heart failure, severe LV dysfunction, and multivessel coronary disease.

Cite This Study
Buckley et al. (2011) conducted a case report in Ischemic Heart Failure (n=1). Revascularization was evaluated. Revascularization strategies (bypass surgery vs percutaneous) were evaluated for a 62-year-old male presenting with ischemic heart failure, severe LV dysfunction, and multivessel coronary disease.
