Brief Summary: Periprocedural myonecrosis or infarction are associated with short, intermediate, and long term adverse outcomes. Previous study indicated 12.6% of patients suffered a peri-procedural CK-MB rise by overlapping use of drug-eluting stents for long coronary lesions. Here the investigators hypothesize that peri-procedural use of tirofiban could reduce the occurrence of periprocedural infarciton in elective patients with long coronary lesions treated by overlapping use of drug-eluting stents.
Detailed Description: According to the results of 12.6% occurrence of peri-procedural myocardial infarction after long stent implantation by previous report\[International Journal of Cardiology 2009;134: 231-237\], the investigator hypothesize the 50% reduction of peri-procedural MI by using tirofiban. Three hundred and sixty-nine patients in each group are needed to reach 80% of power with α 0.05.
