To Cath or Not to Cath: PCI for Chest Pain in Stable Coronary Artery Disease
Most patients with symptomatic Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) are seeking quick relief for their angina by requesting Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) that proved to be effective in Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS), however, their request for PCI may be appropriately denied in stable CAD. Temptations for complete revascularization in CAD make certain valid target for patients as well as their treating physicians; nonetheless, cost effectiveness based on documented outcomes may not support interventional strategy.
