Abstract
In our experience, MACE events were not higher in patients with FFR > 0.8 and kept under medical therapy and were similarly lower in patients with FFR â¤0.8 and underwent revascularisation (p = 0.73). Also MACE events were higher in patients with FFR â¤Â 0.8 and did not undergo revascularisation compared to other two appropriately treated groups (p = 0.03). FFR based revascularization decision appears to be a safe strategy in Indian patients.
