The instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) for evaluation of non-culprit lesions in patients with acute coronary syndrome and multivessel disease
چکیده انگلیسی

BackgroundAdenosine administration is currently required for evaluation of stenosis severity with fractional flow reserve (FFR). The instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) was recently introduced as an adenosine-free alternative in patients with stable CAD. The aim of the present study was to replicate the findings of previous iFR studies using an independent calculation algorithm and to evaluate the iFR for the assessment of non-culprit vessels in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods and results53 patients with ACS (65%) and at least one non-culprit intermediate lesion and 29 (35%) with stable CAD were included. A total of 123 stenoses were evaluated with both FFR and iFR. Classification match of iFR in ACS was not inferior to stable CAD (79.5% in ACS and 84.4% in CAD; p = 0.497). Accordingly, no difference was observed in iFR/FFR correlation between ACS and stable CAD (r = 0.66 in ACS vs. r = 0.69 in CAD). Overall, a significant correlation was found between iFR and FFR (r = 0.68; p < 0.001) with a good diagnostic efficiency at ROC analysis (area under the curve: 0.87). In addition, neither the localization of the stenosis within the coronary tree (p = 0.147) nor the time interval from the acute event (p = 0.550) significantly influenced the concordance of iFR with FFR.ConclusionsThe iFR is a promising method for the assessment of non-culprit lesion severity in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
