Abstract
Coronary vascular reopening with PCI in patients with ischaemic cardiomyopathy and SYNTAX score≤22, can improve prognosis of patients with preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction>35% significantly, but not in those with preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction≤35%. Preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction may be an independent predictor of acute left ventricular failure in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy and SYNTAX score≤22, postoperative left ventricular remodeling and left ventricular systolic function correlate with preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction.
