 Unplanned revascularisation between 30 days and one year

Treatment arm and eventMode of revascularisationDetails
PCICABG
ACS, acute coronary syndrome; CA, coronary angiography; CABG, coronary artery bypass grafting; ETT, exercise tolerance test; IRV, infarct related vessel; ISR, in-stent restenosis; PCI, percutaneous coronary intervention; STEMI, ST segment elevation myocardial infarction; TT, troponin T.
Conservative (n = 15)
Emergency readmission with ACS (n = 8)534 TT negative ACS receiving urgent PCI; 1 TT negative ACS receiving urgent CABG; 2 TT positive ACS receiving urgent CABG; 1 STEMI (different territory) receiving urgent PCI
Other (n = 7)433 undergoing CA during index admission for postinfarction angina or positive ETT but revascularisation deferred: 1 interval CABG, 2 interval PCI; 4 undergoing CA after discharge, followed by revascularisation: 1 postinfarction angina undergoing CA then CABG, 2 post-infarction angina undergoing CA then PCI, 1 adverse ETT at 6 weeks detained for CA and urgent CABG
rPCI (n = 9)
Emergency readmission with ACS (no revascularisation during index admission, but triple vessel disease, n = 4)131 discharged after negative ETT readmitted with TT negative ACS receiving CABG; 1 TT positive ACS receiving PCI (not IRV); 2 on elective list for CABG readmitted with ACS (1 STEMI in different territory from original; 1 TT negative ACS) receiving urgent CABG
Emergency readmission with ACS after PCI to IRV during index admission (n = 4)311 TT negative ACS receiving CABG; 1 further STEMI receiving PCI to new lesion within IRV; 1 TT negative ACS receiving PCI to new lesion within IRV; 1 STEMI receiving PCI to different vessel
Other (n = 1)011 ISR receiving elective CABG
