Brief Summary

COMPLETE-2 is a prospective, multi-centre, randomized controlled trial comparing a strategy of physiology-guided complete revascularization to angiography-guided complete revascularization in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD) who have undergone successful culprit lesion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). COMPLETE-2 OCT is a large scale, prospective, multi-centre, observational, imaging study of patients with STEMI or NSTEMI and multivessel CAD in a subset of eligible COMPLETE-2 patients.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients presenting with STEMI or type 1 NSTEMI and within 72 hours of successful culprit-lesion PCI 2. Residual coronary artery disease defined as at least 1 additional non-infarct-related coronary artery stenosis that meets all of the following criteria: 1. Amenable to successful treatment with PCI 2. At least 50% diameter stenosis by visual estimation 3. At least 2.5 mm in diameter 3. Planned complete revascularization strategy for qualifying MI Exclusion Criteria: 1. Planned or prior coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery 2. Inability to clearly identify a culprit lesion for STEMI or NSTEMI based on angiographic appearance and/or ECG changes and/or regional wall motion abnormalities 3. Prior PCI of a non-culprit lesion in a different vessel from the culprit lesion within 45 days of randomization 4. Planned medical treatment of all qualifying non-culprit lesions (i.e., no PCI) 5. Presence of severe non-culprit-lesion stenosis with reduced epicardial flow (TIMI flow ≤ 2) or \>90% visual diameter stenosis 6. Presence of a chronic total occlusion (CTO) if it is the only qualifying non-culprit lesion (patients with a CTO plus additional qualifying non-culprit lesions are eligible) 7. The only qualifying non-culprit lesion is in the same vessel territory as the culprit lesion 8. Baseline STEMI or NSTEMI was due to a suspected non-atherothrombotic mechanism such as type 2 MI (supply-demand mismatch), including spontaneous coronary artery dissection or coronary artery embolism 9. Non-cardiovascular co-morbidity with expected life expectancy \<2 years 10. Any other medical, geographic, or social factor making study participation impractical or precluding 5 year follow-up
