Multivessel Revascularization in Shock and High-Risk Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Interv Cardiol Clin. 2017 Jul;6(3):407-416. doi: 10.1016/j.iccl.2017.03.009.

Abstract

This review explores the usefulness of multivessel revascularization with percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with multivessel obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) presenting with and without cardiogenic shock. We also evaluate the literature regarding complete versus incomplete revascularization for patients with cardiogenic shock, acute coronary syndromes, and stable coronary artery disease.

Keywords: Cardiogenic shock; Coronary artery disease; Multivessel revascularization; Percutaneous coronary intervention; Revascularization.
