Revascularization to Improve Symptoms (DO NOT EDIT)[1]

Class I

"1. CABG or PCI to improve symptoms is beneficial in patients with 1 or more significant (greater than 70% diameter) coronary artery stenoses amenable to revascularization and unacceptable angina despite guideline-directed medical therapy. (Level of Evidence: A)"

Class III (Harm)

"1. CABG or PCI to improve symptoms should not be performed in patients who do not meet anatomic (greater than 50% left main or greater than 70% non–left main stenosis) or physiological (e.g., abnormal fractional flow reserve) criteria for revascularization. (Level of Evidence: C)"

Class IIa

"1. CABG or PCI to improve symptoms is reasonable in patients with 1 or more significant (greater than 70% diameter) coronary artery stenoses and unacceptable angina for whom guideline-directed medical therapy cannot be implemented because of medication contraindications, adverse effects, or patient preferences. (Level of Evidence: C)"

"2. PCI to improve symptoms is reasonable in patients with previous CABG, 1 or more significant (greater than 70% diameter) coronary artery stenoses associated with ischemia, and unacceptable anginadespite guideline-directed medical therapy. (Level of Evidence: C)"

"3. It is reasonable to choose CABG over PCI to improve symptoms in patients with complex 3-vessel CAD (e.g.,SYNTAX score greater than 22), with or without involvement of the proximal LAD artery who are good candidates for CABG. (Level of Evidence: B)"

Class IIb

"1. CABG to improve symptoms might be reasonable for patients with previous CABG, 1 or more significant (greater than 70% diameter) coronary artery stenoses not amenable to PCI, and unacceptable angina despite guideline-directed medical therapy. (Level of Evidence: C)"

"2.Transmyocardial laser revascularization performed as an adjunct to CABG to improve symptoms may be reasonable in patients with viable ischemic myocardium that is perfused by arteries that are not amenable to grafting.[2] [3] [4] [5][6] (Level of Evidence: B)"
