Key result
FFR-guided PCI safely allows deferral of revascularization for functionally insignificant lesions.
Why the study?
Does Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) measurement safely guide the deferral of percutaneous coronary intervention in nonischemic lesions?
Does Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) measurement safely guide the deferral of percutaneous coronary intervention in nonischemic lesions?
FFR-guided PCI is a safe strategy for deferring revascularization in functionally non-significant coronary lesions.
May support safe FFR-guided deferral across populations; leaves open need for randomized confirmation in specific scenarios.
Fearon FFR-Guided PCI 1861FFR in a variety of patient populations and clinical scenarios, and it demonstrated the safety of deferring revascularization of lesions that are not functionally significant (nonischemic FFR).
