Popis: Background Angiography-Based Vessel FFR (vFFR) demonstrated a strong correlation with invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) in both a pre- and post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) setting. However, the role of vFFR and its correlation with post-PCI FFR in chronic coronary occlusion (CTO) has not been evaluated yet. We sought to investigate the diagnostic performance of post-PCI vFFR with post-PCI FFR as a reference in patients undergoing successful CTO PCI. Methods Between March 2016 and September 2019, a total of 80 patients from the FFR-SEARCH and FFR REACT studies underwent successful CTO recanalization [1,2]). A total of 50 patients (median age 66 (IQR: 56–74) years, 76% were male) were eligible for the analysis. Median FFR was 0.89 (IQR: 0.84–0.94) while median vFFR was 0.91 (IQR: 0.85–0.94). Suboptimal physiological results, defined as FFR and vFFR Conclusion vFFR shows a good agreement with FFR and a high diagnostic accuracy for FFR ≤0.90 in patients undergoing successful PCI of a CTO lesion.
