Overview
Staged PCI is referred to the performance of a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at a later date separate from the performance of the diagnostic catheterization or the performance of an initial PCI.
Guidelines Regarding Staged PCI
Performance of PCI in a non-culprit artery at the time of a STEMI is a class III contraindication. Only 2% of interventional cardiologist would perform a PCI in a non-culprit vessel in the setting of STEMI in a patient who is hemodynamically stable [1].
Timing of a Staged PCI
STEMI
62% of interventional cardiologists recommend that the PCI of the non-culprit artery be performed more than 15 days after the STEMI [2].
