Determinants and Clinical Impact of Direct Stenting in Optical Coherence Tomography-Guided Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction　- An ATLAS-OCT Substudy.

BACKGROUND Direct stenting (DS) is a simplified strategy for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI); however, its role in the era of advanced intravascular imaging remains incompletely defined. We aimed to identify determinants of DS use and its impact on procedural efficiency and optical coherence tomography...
