SYNTAX II: The Path to Modern PCI

The SYNTAX II Clinical Trial1 is a landmark study that explores the impact of systematically doing the best possible Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). This includes gathering and assessing more patient information, adopting state-of-the-art techniques, and integrating proven best practices. SYNTAX II, supported by an ecosystem of clinical evidence, provides a blueprint for a holistic, individualized approach to PCI that can lead to significant reductions in negative clinical endpoints and improvements in procedure outcomes. The main takeaway? PCI patients can experience excellent, CABG-like outcomes out to five years and beyond.

IVUS Guidance

SYNTAX II proves that IVUS use elevates outcomes – it is critical to effective treatment strategy, optimal stent placement, and post-procedure assessment.

Led to further stent optimization in 30.2% of lesions, IVUS use occurred in 84.1% of patients
 

Physiology Assessment

Through SYNTAX II and other related research, we know that comprehensive assessment of functional patient information can inform treatment decisions and preparation and provide clinical value post-PCI. This includes FFR and IFR, which is essential in PCI vs CABG treatment decisions.

Tools & Techniques

Optimizing PCI includes using all the newest data, tools , and techniques at our disposal to provide the best possible treatment for CAD patients. SYNTAX II shows that, despite case complexity, it is possible to see reduction in rates of revascularization, peri-procedural MI, and acute ST.

The field of PCI is continuously evolving. Boston Scientific can guide you on the journey to modern PCI - understanding, integrating, and applying clinical data and best practices that, combined, enable you to personalize treatment and provide the best possible outcomes for your patients.

Treat with
Confidence

Ensure all CAD patients who are candidates for PCI have the chance to be treated via a less invasive approach.

Effective
Procedures

Personalizing care and reducing risk factors leads to better long-term outcomes, even for complex cases.

 

Fewer Repeat Revascularizations

The right intervention at the right time can improve patient experience and reduce utilization and readmissions.
