Effect of left ventricular ejection fraction on the prognostic impact of chronic total occlusion in a non-infarct-related artery in patients with acute myocardial infarction

Effect of left ventricular ejection fraction on the prognostic impact of chronic total occlusion in a non-infarct-related artery in patients with acute myocardial infarction

Background: Chronic total occlusion (CTO) in a non-infarct-related artery (IRA) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is associated with a poor prognosis. However, whether the prognostic impact of non-IRA CTO differs according to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is unclear. Methods...
