DES Statistically Inferior to CABG for Complex Coronary Disease: SYNTAX
Link ID 8304
Title DES Statistically Inferior to CABG for Complex Coronary Disease: SYNTAX
Url http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/579908?src=rss
Description While DES results failed to meet the test of noninferiority to CABG for a composite end point of death, MI, stroke, and revascularization, the two strategies had comparable rates of "hard" clinical events at one year. Rates of stroke were higher for CABG, while repeat procedures were more common for PCI. Heartwire
