Overview
Overview
In patients with chronic stable angina, the extent and severity of coronary artery disease (CAD)[1] and left ventricular dysfunction remain the strongest predictors of long-term prognosis. Hence, patients identified as high risk for underlying CAD based on non-invasive testing, patients with CCS class III or IV angina and patients who are non-responsive to medical therapy, coronary angiography would be a preferred modality for risk stratification. Coronary angiography is primarily used to assess the number and location of stenoses, of which triple-vessel disease and proximal stenoses involving the left main and proximal LAD are associated with increased mortality.[2] In patients with single-vessel disease, coronary angiography and myocardial perfusion imaging provide similar results in assessing the severity of coronary stenosis[3][4][5] however, in patients with multi-vessel disease, nuclear imaging or echocardiography are more useful in evaluating the prognosis.[6][7]
Coronary Angiography
Coronary Angiography
- Number of stenoses: Patients with three-vessel disease have a higher mortality rate in comparison to patients with single vessel disease.[2]
- Jeopardy score:[8] The jeopardy score assessed the location of coronary artery stenosis to provide prognostic information than the number of diseased coronary arteries. Higher jeopardy scores were associated with lower left ventricular ejection fraction and hence poorer clinical outcomes. Proximal stenosis involving the left main and proximal left anterior descending artery (LAD), were associated with higher scores and hence increased risk of ischemic events.

- Coronary artery disease prognostic index:[9] This index assessed the severity and the location of lesion and stratified the patients based on benefit from revascularization.[10][11] In medically treated patients, this classification specifically analyzed the relationship between the lesion location and the risk of subsequent acute coronary event that caused death.
