Summary
In this study, investigators enrolled patients with coronary heart disease who were scheduled to undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and had high-risk plaques according to computed tomography angiography (CTA). During the PCI procedure, patients will be randomly assigned to receive either bivalirudin or standard heparin anticoagulation therapy. Investigators will compare the post-PCI coronary angiography-derived index of microcirculatory resistance (CaIMR), thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) blood flow grade, CTFC (corrected TIMI frame count), TIMI myocardial perfusion grading(TMPG), levels of troponin, and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) during a follow-up period of 6 months between the two groups. Investigators aim to explore the potential benefits of bivalirudin perioperative anticoagulation therapy in improving coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) after PCI for high-risk plaques in coronary artery lesions.
