flag Treating multiple blocked heart arteries at once in heart attack patients is as safe and effective as staged treatment, a global study finds.

flag A large international study, the iMODERN trial, finds treating multiple blocked coronary arteries during a single procedure for heart attack patients is as safe and effective as delaying treatment, with no significant difference in death, repeat heart attack, or heart failure hospitalization over three years. flag The trial, involving 1,146 patients across 14 countries, used instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) to guide immediate or staged treatment, supporting the use of physiology-guided revascularization in acute settings and offering cardiologists greater flexibility in personalized care.
