Why the study?
Does the Navvus monorail pressure catheter provide comparable FFR measurements to standard pressure wires with less sensor drift?
Does the Navvus monorail pressure catheter provide comparable FFR measurements to standard pressure wires with less sensor drift?
The Navvus monorail pressure catheter is a viable alternative to standard pressure wires for FFR measurement, offering less sensor drift.
May support Navvus as FFR alternative with less drift; leaves open randomized outcome validation.
Navvus and PW FFR correlated well. Navvus had less sensor drift. This new catheter-based system offers an alternative method for measuring FFR, with some potential advantages over PW.
