Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The specific aim of this proposal is to examine the impact of OCT and IVUS-guided management of patients with prior DES implantation who need major non-cardiac surgery and discontinuation of dual antiplatelet therapy on the perioperative (1 week prior to surgery until 30 days post surgery) incidence of major adverse cardiac events.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients who receive drug-eluting stents (DES) and subsequently require non-cardiac surgery have increased risk for perioperative stent thrombosis, especially when antiplatelet therapy discontinuation is required. Perioperative administration of a glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor may decrease the stent thrombosis risk, but it is cumbersome and carries high cost. Stents that have been endothelialized by optical coherence tomography (OCT) are likely to have low risk for perioperative stent thrombosis and therefore intensive management strategies, such as "bridging with a glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor" would not be required. The current study will assess whether OCT utilization can help optimize the preoperative management of DES patients requiring major non-cardiac surgery.

The hypothesis is that OCT and IVUS-guided treatment will have low incidence (≤10%) of perioperative major adverse cardiac events.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Optical Coherence Tomography

Patients enrolled in the study will undergo optical coherence tomography to evaluate the extent of stent strut coverage.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Optical coherence tomography

Intervention Type DEVICE

Optical coherence tomography will be performed to determine the stent strut coverage. Patients in whom \>95% of stent struts are covered will not receive perioperative bridging with a glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors, whereas those with \<95% stent strut coverage will receive perioperative bridging.
