Brief Summary

The aim of the SMART-CARE trial is to compare clinical outcomes between coronary CT angiography (CCTA) versus standard care as follow-up strategies in high-risk patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: ① Patients aged 19 years old ② Patients who underwent successful PCI with one or more contemporary drug-eluting stents (stent diameter ≥3mm) or drug-coated balloons. ③ Patients must have at least one of the following criteria of complex coronary artery lesions or high-risk clinical characteristics: A. Complex coronary artery lesions: i. True bifurcation lesion (Medina 1,1,1/1,0,1/0,1,1) with side branch ≥2.5mm size ii. Chronic total occlusion (≥3 months) as target lesion iii. PCI for unprotected left main (LM) disease (LM ostium, body, distal LM bifurcation including non-true bifurcation) iv. Long coronary lesions (used stents or drug-coated balloons ≥38 mm in length) v. Multi-vessel PCI (≥2 major epicardial coronary arteries treated at one PCI session) vi. Multiple devices needed (≥3 more stents or drug-coated balloons per patient) vii. In-stent restenosis lesion as target lesion viii. Severely calcified lesion (encircling calcium in angiography) ix. Left anterior
