Clinical Outcomes of Patients With Deferred Revascularization Based on FFR and iFR Negative Coronary Artery Lesions.

February 13, 2022 updated by: Jamshed Ali, Aga Khan University Hospital, Pakistan

Clinical Outcomes of Patients With Deferred Revascularization Based on Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) and Instantaneous Wave-free Ratio (iFR) Negative Coronary Artery Lesions in Pakistani Population

The objective is to assess long-term clinical outcomes of patients in whom intervention of coronary lesions was deferred due to negative fractional flow reserve (FFR) and negative Instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) in a real-world patient population and to identify factors associated with deferred target lesion failure.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Fractional flow Reserve (FFR) evaluates functional significance of stenosis in intermediate coronary lesions. Instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) is considered noninferior to FFR and does not require adenosine administration.

This study was done to assess long-term clinical outcomes and factors associated with target vessel revascularization (TVR) in patients with deferred revascularization based on negative FFR and iFR.

Retrospective analysis of medical records of 345 patients with deferred revascularization at a tertiary care hospital , from January 2012 to January 2020 will be done.

Study Population

Mean age of study population was 62 ±11 years and majority (71%) of the population was male.76% (263) of the population was hypertensive, diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia was present in 49%(169) and 53%(185) respectively. History of myocardial infarction (MI) was present in 12% (43) and one-fourth of population had history of revascularization, i.e PCI (19%) or coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) 3%.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who had intermediate to severe coronary lesions on coronary angiogram.
  • Patients who had negative FFR >0.80 or iFR >0.89 and did not undergo immediate or planned revascularization on basis of negative physiologic assessment.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients younger than 18 years of age or those having positive FFR/iFR values irrespective of revascularization status were excluded.
  • Similarly, those who were lost to follow up and could not be traced via telephonic or were also excluded.
