Contemporary Clinical Treatment and Long-term Outcomes in Patient With Coronary Chronic Total Occlusion

Study Center : Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital

Study Purpose : Through collecting and effective analyzing basic information, cardiovascular characteristics, contemporary clinical treatment , and long-term outcomes of CTO patients ,to describe the relevant risk factors ,the contemporary incidence of CTOs and the success rates of CTO percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), as well as the complications and long-term outcomes of these patients, to explore the relevant factors which affecting the success rates of PCI therapy and to provide safer and more effective advice for the treatment of CTO.

Study Design : A Retrospective Observational Study

Study Population Description : All CTO patients who has been diagnosed by coronary angiography in Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital in 2016-08-01 to 2020-12-31

Exclude Criteria:

1. Cardiac arrest; Ventricular fibrillation; Cardiogenic shock; Acute thrombosis in the stent; Acute coronary syndrome;
2. The bridge vessel(-s) was/were not total occluded and coronary artery(-ies) was/were total occluded but not trying to revascularize in CAG of the patient who has gone through coronary artery bypass graft before;
3. The diameter was too small or position was too distal of the total occluded coronary artery;
