Intravascular Ultrasound Guided Drug Eluting Stents Implantation in "All-comers" Coronary Lesions （ULTIMATE Trial）
Abstract
A number of 1448 patients scheduled for elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with a native coronary stenosis suitable for DES implantation and IVUS imaging are openly randomized 1:1 to either IVUS guidance or angiographic guidance groups.
Conditions: Coronary Artery Disease.
Primary outcome: Target Vessel Failure.
Enrollment: 1448 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 1,448 participants or records.
