ApPropriateness of myocaRdial RevascularizatiOn assessed by the SYNTAX score II in a coUntry without cardiac Surgery faciliTies; PROUST study

The intuitive decision-making for choosing the optimal myocardial revascularization method differed predominantly from the SSII recommendation for CABG. The discordance between the SSII recommended revascularization strategy and the clinical decision was associated with a higher 4-year mortality i.e. one life may be saved if SSII would be calculated and followed consequently in 18 patients.
