Optimization of Complex Percutaneous Coronary Intervention With Liberal Use of Intracoronary Imaging Versus Contemporary Practice

A new protocol regarding use of intracoronary imaging will be implemented in multiple PCI centers in the Netherlands. Main goal of this protocol will be to increase the use of imaging in complex PCI in the Netherlands. Moreover operators will be trained according to the new protocol and on site training will be organized to improve the skills in using imaging during complex PCI.Operators are requested to use of intracoronary imaging preferentially in all complex coronary lesions, but at least increase their use with at least 50% and minimum of 25% of the cases. Throughout the second phase, individual participating operators will receive personalized feedback on their use of intracoronary imaging at multiple intervals. Based on this result, the implementation process will be refined as necessary. These intermediate measurements will also be shared with all participating centres anonymous.
