Summary

This study looked at whether using a pressure wire (FFR) to decide which narrowings to stent improves outcomes for people with two or more blockages in the same heart artery. The trial planned to enroll 438 people but was stopped early. The main goal was to see if this approach reduced heart-related deaths, heart attacks, or the need for repeat procedures.
