Find best timing for stent procedure in NSTEMI with multiple vessel disease
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial compares when to do a stent procedure (PCI) in people with NSTEMI who have disease in more than one coronary artery (non-IRA). It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective timing for treatment to improve outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 19 or older.
- Your heart event fits NSTEMI (chest pain/ischemia with abnormal heart blood tests) and does not show certain ECG patterns like ST-elevation.
- You are scheduled for a PCI (stent procedure) within 72 hours of when your symptoms started.
- You have multivessel disease: a non-culprit artery with about 50% narrowing and at least 2.5 mm vessel size, with more than one affected vessel.
- Your study team says the non-culprit (non-IRA) blockage is treatable with PCI and you can use contrast dye safely.
- You agree to the study plan (you or your legal protector can consent).

This study looks at how well doctors can treat multiple blocked heart arteries using a specific drug-eluting stent, aiming to fully open them. It may help patients whose blockage pattern fits the study, but it does not include certain high-risk or special cases.
This trial compares two ways of measuring blood flow inside the heart arteries (IVUS vs FFR) to help decide which non–culprit artery narrowings need a stent after a recent heart attack. It may help doctors choose the best targets for PCI and avoid unnecessary procedures.
This trial is looking at the best time to treat other narrowed arteries in people who had a heart attack and already had the main blockage opened. It compares doing the additional procedures during the same session versus waiting a few days or weeks.
This trial compares two ways to treat patients who have had a recent heart attack and have multiple blocked arteries. It tests whether fixing all blockages at once is better than doing it in stages.
This study compares doing all heart artery procedures right away versus doing part of them later in people who had a heart attack and have blockage in more than one artery. It aims to see which approach is safer and works better after the initial emergency procedure.
This trial studies whether doing a planned, staged treatment for some artery blockages after a heart attack can improve outcomes. It uses detailed images of the heart arteries and compares results in people who are stable after their initial emergency procedure.
