Comprehensive diagnosis in chronic coronary syndromes combining angiography and intracoronary testing: the AID-ANGIO study
Authors' conclusion
In assessing ischaemia-generating coronary abnormalities, prespecified use of the AID strategy was associated with a 2.6-fold increase in diagnostic yield compared with ICA (84.2% vs 32.2%, respectively), largely due to the identification of INOCA. Modification of the therapeutic plan with the AID strategy occurred in 59.9% of cases. (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT05635994).
