A number of 1104 patients scheduled for elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with native coronary bifurcation lesions suitable for stent implantation are included in the present study. This study will be conducted in two stages with 552 patients each. In the first stage, all patients receive angiography-guided PCI. In the second stage, all patients receive PCI under the guidance of baseline V-RESOLVE score.
The purpose of this study is to investigate if baseline V-RESOLVE score-guided PCI is associated with significant reduction of side branch occlusion rate compared to angiography-guided PCI in patients with coronary bifurcation lesions.
