Fractional flow reserve in acute coronary syndromes.
Little doubt exists about the outcome benefit of an invasive strategy in patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Yet, once the revascularization is performed, the treatment strategy of patients admitted with an ACS is not always as straightforward in daily clinical practice as indicated in guidelines. The reasons for this are at least three-fold. First, a sizable proportion of patients ...
متن کاملResults of fractional flow reserve measurement to evaluate nonculprit coronary artery stenoses in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Multivessel disease is usually present in almost half of patients with acute coronary syndromes. Angiography is insufficiently accurate to decide on coronary revascularization in moderate nonculprit lesions. There is some debate about the usefulness of fractional flow reserve assessed by intracoronary pressure wire in acute coronary syndromes. We studied the results ...
متن کاملFractional flow reserve in acute coronary syndromes: A review
Fractional flow reserve (FFR) assessment provides anatomical and physiological information that is often used to tailor treatment strategies in coronary artery disease. Whilst robust data validates FFR use in stable ischaemic heart disease, its use in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) is less well investigated. We critically review the current data surrounding FFR use across the spectrum of ACS in...
متن کاملFractional flow reserve (FFR)-based therapy in patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome: Current data and everyday practice.
Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is an evidence-based diagnostic tool of physiological significance of coronary artery stenosis in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Due to microvascular dysfunction in acute coronary syndrome (ACS), information obtained from FFR assessment could be less reliable and, thus, its clinical role remains controversial. Indeed, results of currently publi...
متن کامل[Could fractional flow reserve guide therapeutic strategy in acute coronary syndrome?].
Fractional flow reserve, as determined with a pressure-wire, was validated in the assessment of the functional severity of intermediate lesions in a population with stable ischemic cardiopathy. The value of pressure-wire analysis in acute coronary syndrome is unknown. We report two patients with acute coronary syndrome, in which the therapeutic approach was guided by the fractional flow reserve...
