Development and evaluation of the accuracy of an indicator of the appropriateness of interventional cardiology generated from a French registry

Table 1 High graded 2014 ESC/EACTS Guidelines on myocardial revascularization for Interventional Coronary Angiography and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention indications

Guidelines issues	Recommendation	Class/Level
Indication of ICA	LVEF < 50% and either typical angina or PTP > 85% without prior non-invasive tests	IA
Indication of ICA	Results of non-invasive testing were in favor of an ischemia and the PTP was between 15 and 85%	IA
Indication of revascularization for prognosis	A left main disease with stenosis > 50%,	IA
	Any proximal left anterior descending coronary artery stenosis > 50%	IA
	Two-vessel or three-vessel disease with stenosis > 50% with impaired LV function (LVEF < 40%)	IA
Indication of revascularization for symptoms	Any coronary stenosis > 50% in the presence of limiting angina or angina equivalent, unresponsive to medical therapy	IA
Non-indication of a PCI but recommendation of a CABG when a revascularization is recommended	Left main disease with a SYNTAX score > 32	IIIB
	Three-vessel disease with a SYNTAX score > 23	IIIB
