Abstract

ObjectivesOur objectives were to evaluate the outcomes of left main percutaneous coronary interventions in Acute Coronary Syndrome population. MethodsThis is a retrospective& observational study. Primary endpoint is a composite of death, stent thrombosis/MI, target lesion revascularization. Secondary endpoints include individual components of the primary events analyzed separately. ResultsSeventy five patients, two year follow – up data was analyzed. The primary event analysis showed that the Elective Double Stent (EDS) group had a higher primary events (36% vs. 14%, p value – 0.008, Hazard ratio – 0.76 (0.51–1.15, 95% CI), in secondary event analysis stent thrombosis (ST)/Myocardial infarction (MI) rates were higher in EDS group (8% Vs 36%, p Value – 0.008, Hazard ratio- 0.63(0.35–1.14, 95%CI), there is no difference in target lesion revascularization (TLR)and death rates in both the groups. ConclusionsThe provisional strategy is better than EDS in treatment of left main bifurcation lesions in the ACS population.
