Randomized Trial of Immediate Versus Early and Selective Invasive Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in NSTEMI

In non-ST-elevation the optimal time of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unclear. Some studies showed benefit of very early PCI, some others early PCI between 12-48 hours and others even showed a benefit of a selective invasive approach only in case of recurrence of symptoms or a positive stress test. The optimal timing of intervention is still matter of debate as a result of a randomized clinical trial.
