Development and Validation of a Scoring System for Predicting Periprocedural Complications During Percutaneous Coronary Interventions of Chronic Total Occlusions: The Prospective Global Registry for the Study of Chronic Total Occlusion Intervention (PROGR

High success rates are achievable for chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using the hybrid approach, but periprocedural complications remain of concern. Although scores estimating success and efficiency in CTO PCI have been developed, there is currently no available score for estimation of the risk for periprocedural complications. We sought to develop a scoring tool for prediction of periprocedural complications during CTO PCI. We analyzed data from 1569 CTO PCIs in the Prospective Global Registry for the Study of Chronic Total Occlusion Intervention (PROGRESS CTO) using a derivation and validation sampling ratio of 2:1. Variables independently associated with periprocedural complications in multivariable analysis in the derivation set were assigned points based on their respective odds ratios. Forty-four (2.8%) patients experienced complications. Three factors were independent predictors of complications and were included in the score: patient age >65 years, +3 points (odds ratio, OR=4.85, CI 1.82-16.77); lesion length ≥23 mm, +2 points (OR=3.22, CI 1.08-13.89); and use of the retrograde approach +1 point (OR=2.41, CI 1.04-6.05). The resulting score showed good calibration and discriminatory capacity in the derivation (Hosmer-Lemeshow χ2 6.271, P=0.281, receiver-operating characteristic [ROC] area=0.758) and validation (Hosmer-Lemeshow χ2 4.551, P=0.473, ROC area=0.793) sets. Score values of 0 to 2, 3 to 4, and ≥5 were defined as low, intermediate, and high risk of complications (derivation cohort 0.4%, 1.8%, 6.5%, P<0.001; validation cohort 0.0%, 2.5%, 6.8%, P<0.001). The PROGRESS CTO complication score is a useful tool for prediction of periprocedural complications in CTO PCI. URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT02061436.

Development and Validation of a Novel Scoring System for Predicting Technical Success of Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Interventions: The PROGRESS CTO (Prospective Global Registry for the Study of Chronic Total Occlusion Intervention) Scor

This study sought to develop a novel parsimonious score for predicting technical success of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) performed using the hybrid approach. Predicting technical success of CTO PCI can facilitate clinical decision making and procedural planning. We analyzed clinical and angiographic parameters from 781 CTO PCIs included in PROGRESS CTO (Prospective Global Registry for the Study of Chronic Total Occlusion Intervention) using a derivation and validation cohort (2:1 sampling ratio). Variables with strong association with technical success in multivariable analysis were assigned 1 point, and a 4-point score was developed from summing all points. The PROGRESS CTO score was subsequently compared with the J-CTO (Multicenter Chronic Total Occlusion Registry in Japan) score in the validation cohort. Technical success was 92.9%. On multivariable analysis, factors associated with technical success included proximal cap ambiguity (beta coefficient [b] = 0.88), moderate/severe tortuosity (b = 1.18), circumflex artery CTO (b = 0.99), and absence of "interventional" collaterals (b = 0.88). The resulting score demonstrated good calibration and discriminatory capacity in the derivation (Hosmer-Lemeshow chi-square = 2.633; p = 0.268, and receiver-operator characteristic [ROC] area = 0.778) and validation (Hosmer-Lemeshow chi-square = 5.333; p = 0.070, and ROC area = 0.720) subset. In the validation cohort, the PROGRESS CTO and J-CTO scores performed similarly in predicting technical success (ROC area 0.720 vs. 0.746, area under the curve difference = 0.026, 95% confidence interval = -0.093 to 0.144). The PROGRESS CTO score is a novel useful tool for estimating technical success in CTO PCI performed using the hybrid approach.

Angiographic Scoring System for Predicting Successful Percutaneous Coronary Intervention of In-Stent Chronic Total Occlusion.

The purpose of this study was to develop a scoring model to predict the technical success of recanalizing via antegrade approach in-stent chronic total occlusion (IS-CTO) by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We retrospectively collected data from 474 patients who underwent an uneasy IS-CTO PCI via antegrade approach from January 2015 to December 2018, consecutively. We selected clinical and angiographic factors and utilized a derivation and validation cohort (4:1 sampling ratio) analysis. Factors with strong correlations with technical failure, according to multivariable analysis, were assigned 1 point, and a scoring system with a 4-point maximum was established. The model was then validated with a validation cohort. The overall procedural success rate was 77.4%. On multivariable analysis, the factors that correlated with technical failure were proximal bending (beta coefficient [β] = 2.142), tortuosity (β = 2.622), stent under expansion (β = 3.052), and poor distal landing zone (β = 2.004). The IS-CTO score demonstrated good calibration and excellent predicting capacity in the derivation (receiver-operator characteristic [ROC] area = 0.973 and Hosmer-Lemeshow chi-squared = 5.252; p = 0.072) and validation (ROC area = 0.976 and Hosmer-Lemeshow chi-squared = 0.916; p = 0.632) cohorts. In the validation subset, the IS-CTO score demonstrated superior performance to the Japanese chronic total occlusion score (J-CTO) and PROGRESS CTO scores for predicting technical success (area under the a curve [AUC] 0.976 vs. 0.642 vs. 0.579, respectively; difference in AUC between the IS-CTO score and J-CTO score = 0.334, p < 0.01; difference in AUC between the IS-CTO score and PROGRESS score = 0.397, p < 0.01). Our results suggest that the IS-CTO score system is a helpful tool to predict the technical success of IS-CTO PCI via antegrade approach in china. Graphical Abstract.

A Clinical and Angiographic Scoring System to Predict the Probability of Successful First-Attempt Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With Total Chronic Coronary Occlusion.

This study sought to develop a scoring model predicting percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) success in chronic total occlusions. Coronary chronic total occlusion is the lesion subtype in which angioplasty is most likely to fail. Chronic total occlusion for PCI (CTO-PCI) failure is associated with higher 1-year mortality and major adverse cardiac events compared with successful CTO-PCI. Although several independent predictors of final procedural success have been identified, no study has yet produced a model predicting final procedural outcome. Data from 1,657 consecutive patients who underwent a first-attempt CTO-PCI were prospectively collected. The scoring model was developed in a derivation cohort of 1,143 patients (70%) using a multivariable stepwise analysis to identify independent predictors of CTO-PCI failure. The model was then validated in the remaining 514 (30%). The overall procedural success rate was 72.5%. Independent predictors of CTO-PCI failure were identified and included in the clinical and lesion-related score (CL-score) as follows: previous coronary artery bypass graft surgery +1.5 (odds ratio [OR]: 2.49, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.56 to 3.96), previous myocardial infarction +1 (OR: 1.6, 95% CI: 1.17 to 2.2), severe lesion calcification +2 (OR: 2.72, 95% CI :1.78 to 4.16), longer CTOs +1.5 (≥20 mm OR: 2.04, 95% CI: 1.54 to 2.7), non-left anterior descending coronary artery location +1 (OR: 1.56, 95% CI: 1.14 to 2.15), and blunt stump morphology +1 (OR: 1.39, 95% CI: 1.05 to 1.81). Score values of 0 to 1, >1 and <3, ≥3 and <5, and ≥5 identified subgroups at high, intermediate, low, and very low probability, respectively, of CTO-PCI success (derivation cohort: 84.9%, 74.9%, 58%, and 31.9%; p < 0,0001; validation cohort: 88.3%, 73.1%, 59.4%, and 46.2%; p < 0.0001). This clinical and angiographic score predicted the final CTO-PCI procedural outcome of our study population.
