Resumen
Background
The European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EAPCI)-endorsed algorithm for defining device success has not yet been prospectively tested against standardised quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) by a core lab.
Aims
We sought to assess whether visually evaluated device success by the operator at the end of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) aligns with the EAPCI-endorsed standardised definition adjudicated by the core lab and to evaluate its association with clinical outcomes.
