Advanced Invasive Diagnosis Strategy for Post-PCI Patients With Stable Coronary Syndromes Undergoing Coronary Angiography
Spain246 participantsStarted 2025-03-12
Plain-language summary
AID Post-PCI Angina is as an observational, prospective, single-cohort, multicenter study designed to investigate the causes and origins of post-PCI angina by using the advance invasive diagnosis (AID) strategy combining with angiography derived physiology (ADP) in an all-comers population of patients with post-PCI angina referred for invasive coronary angiography. An all-comers population of patients with a history of previous percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), who presented with angina or documented myocardial ischemia by non-invasive testing and are referred for invasive coronary angiography (ICA) will be enrolled. ICA will be performed with the application of the structure AID strategy to evaluate both obstructive and non-obstructive cause of myocardial ischemia. Then, angiography derived physiological assessment of epicardial coronary artery using functional coronary angiography in each vessel will be performed in both index procedure and the previous procedure in all patients. By combining information obtained from both procedures, the causes and origins of post-PCI angina will be made. Treatment will be decided by the operators according to the result. Patients will complete the Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) at baseline and at 1, 6, and 12 months after the procedure. The main hypothesis of this study states that, in patients with post-PCI angina referred to ICA, the application of the structured AID strategy combining with angiography derived physiology (ADP) will lead to a high diagnostic yield in identifying the origins of obstructive disease and causes of post-PCI angina.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients with a history of previous percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug eluting stent (DES), bare metallic stent (BMS), or drug coated balloon (DCB) due to acute coronary syndrome or chronic coronary syndrome, who presented with angina or documented myocardial ischemia by non-invasive testing and are referred for invasive coronary angiography.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Acute myocardial infarction (ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction \[STEMI\] and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction \[NSTEMI\]).
* Age \< 18 years old.
* Pregnancy.
* Severe left ventricle systolic dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction ≤30 %).
* Congestive heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
* Concomitant severe valvular heart disease.
* Severely decreased renal function (glomerular filtration rate \< 30 mL/min/1.73 m2).
* Significant epicardial coronary artery disease unable to be treated by PCI.
* Previous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
* Presence of any anatomic features precluding intracoronary instrumentation with pressure guidewires.
* Contraindications to the administration of adenosine or acetylcholine.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

What they're measuring
1
The proportion of patients in whom the origins of obstructive disease and causes of post-PCI angina is identified using the AID strategy combining with ADP.
