The Orbita Trial - the inside scoop - Part 2

In this episode of the Heart podcast, Digital Media Editor Dr. James Rudd visits Professor Darrel Francis and Dr. Rasha Al-Lamee at "Orbita HQ" in Imperial College, London to discuss their groundbreaking trial. This is the second part of a wide-ranging discussion during which they cover why the trial was desperately needed, the barriers to getting started and what the startling and unexpected results might mean for PCI in stable coronary artery disease. The concept of post-publication ‘trial by Twitter’ rounds out their chat. Link to published paper:
