Coronary revascularization in ischemic heart failure patients: a rapid review
Pron G
Record ID 32014001036
English
Authors' objectives:
The objective of this analysis was to evaluate the effectiveness of coronary revascularization in ischemic heart failure (HF) patients.
Authors' recommendations:
The evidence suggests that coronary revascularization improves survival compared to medical therapy in patients with CAD and significant left ventricular systolic dysfunction, and for those in whom treatable targets are identified. Decisions to perform revascularization in these patients should not be overly influenced by imaging-defined myocardial viability status, as an association with clinical outcomes was not shown. The routine use of SVR as an adjunct to CABG coronary revascularization is not supported by the evidence.
