AUTHOR: Ola WisniewskaA novel optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based physiological assessment, virtual flow reserve (VFR), has been shown to predict 2-year clinical outcomes following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), independent of anatomical measures like minimal stent area (MSA). This finding comes from a new substudy of the ILUMIEN IV trial, highlighting the potential of VFR to… View more

A study has found that while the severity of ischaemia correlates poorly with daily angina symptoms in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD), the development of coronary collateral circulation is associated with both the ischaemic burden and reduced intensity of ischaemic chest pain.¹ This may help explain the often-observed disconnect between stenosis severity and patient-reported… View more

An individual patient data (IPD) meta-analysis has found that using fractional flow reserve (FFR) to guide percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with a significant reduction in major adverse events compared to a standard angiography-guided strategy. The benefit appears to be driven primarily by a reduction in peri-procedural myocardial infarction (MI).¹The PRIME Collaboration… View more

ACC.24 — Investigator, Dr Felix Böhm (Danderyd Hospital, SE) joins us to discuss the findings from a study investigating fractional flow reserve-guided complete or culprit-only percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (MI).1542 patients were enrolled in the trial, who were randomized 1:1 to receive either FFR-guided PCI of non-culprit lesions… View more

LINC 2025 - Outcomes from the GRIFFIN study suggest post-procedural functional flow reserve (FFR) could be a useful predictor of restenosis after drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty for superficial femoral artery (SFA) lesions. Restenosis patients showed significantly lower FFR values than non-restenosis patients, and the study resulted in a good FFR cut-off value of restenosis after DCB… View more
