What is P5626The clinical impact of the angle of OCT detected irregular protrusion after primary PCI at the STEMI culprit lesions about?

Abstract Background and introduction The percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) shows worse clinical outcomes than that for stable angina. As the one of the reasons, a recent optical coherence tomography (OCT) registry showed that the presence of irregular protrusion (IP)after coronary stenting was the worse predictor of 1-year device-oriented clinical end points. However, the impact of the quantitative findings on IP has not been well investigated in ACS patients. Aim To investigate the clinical impact of the post stent OCT findings, especially IP, detected by OCT after coronary stenting in ACS patients. Methods Consecutive 256 ACS lesions treated with OCT-guided PCI in our Medical University Hospital from January 2013 to November 2016 was retrospectively analyzed. In 256 lesions, 173 lesions were enrolled which had ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) with the onset to recanalization time within 720 minutes. In 170 lesions, the OCT images were available. In OCT image, IP was detected in 140 lesions (82.3%). Quantitative analysis of IP in post-procedure OCT imaging was observed to identify the OCT predictors for clinical endpoint inc
