Long-term prognostic value of stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance in patients with history of percutaneous coronary intervention
Circulation: Cardiovascular Imaging Jun 18, 2021
Pezel T, Hovasse T, Kinnel M, et al. - The prognostic value of stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) parameters in patients with a history of percutaneous coronary intervention was investigated. Researchers followed consecutive patients with a history of percutaneous coronary intervention referred for stress perfusion CMR for the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), defined by cardiovascular death or nonfatal myocardial infarction. The CMR protocol was completed by 1,762 patients; 1,624 of these patients (81.7% male, mean age 67.9±10.4 years) completed the follow-up (median [interquartile range], 6.7 [5.6–7.3] years); MACE occurrence was observed in 244 patients(15.0%). Findings revealed independent association of inducible ischemia and late gadolinium enhancement assessed by stress CMR with MACE occurrence in patients with history of percutaneous coronary intervention.
