According to this meta-analysis, troponin elevation after elective PCI provides important prognostic information.

After 2 years of follow-up and stringent discontinuation of DAPT beyond 12 months, Resolute ZES and Xience V EES showed similar results in terms of safety and efficacy for treating patients with a majority of complex lesions and off-label indications for drug-eluting stents. (The Real-World Endeavor Resolute Versus Xience V Drug-Eluting Stent Study in Twente [TWENTE]; NCT01066650).

Despite some differences in baseline characteristics, non-enrolled and randomised patients did not differ in one-year outcome, which was favourable for both populations and may be related to the drug-eluting stents used.
