Popis: | Background:Peripheral arterial disease is a condition characterized by progressive arterial narrowing, which affects patients’ quality of life. The purposes of this study were to (1) establish the feasibility of obtaining peripheral fractional flow reserve (pFFR) in the peripheral vascular circulation, (2) demonstrate an association between baseline pFFR and peak systolic velocity (PSV) measured by duplex ultrasound, and (3) correlate postintervention pFFR with future restenosis using the change in PSV over time as a surrogate. Methods:Twenty patients underwent baseline ankle brachial index (ABI) and PSV testing. Pre- and postintervention pFFR was performed. Patients were followed with three ABI and PSV recordings during the 1 year follow-up period. The association between baseline PSV, ABI, and pFFR with changes in PSV over time were explored. Predictors of postprocedural PSV over time were determined. Results:The baseline translesional-resting ratio was significantly different from the pFFR using adenosine (0.79 ± 0.08 vs. 0.71 ± 0.09, P = 0.01). Baseline PSV was significantly associated with preintervention pFFR (–0.77, P 0.95, patients with a postprocedure pFFR |
