Implementation of Coronary Physiology in complex clinical and angiographic scenarios

Cronary angiography was, for many years, the only available tool to diagnose and assess the consequences of coronary atherosclerosis, becoming the standard reference in the study of ischemic heart disease allowing to routinely describe the severity of coronary stenosis or the severity of the disease...

description Cronary angiography was, for many years, the only available tool to diagnose and assess the consequences of coronary atherosclerosis, becoming the standard reference in the study of ischemic heart disease allowing to routinely describe the severity of coronary stenosis or the severity of the disease based on the number of vessels affected. Subsequently, the introduction of invasive methods to assess coronary physiology allowed to obtain a precise assessment regarding the physiological impact of epicardial coronary stenoses, while demonstrating the poor diagnostic performance of angiography to assess the functional impact these stenoses. Among the coronary physiology techniques, the fractional flow reserve (FFR) and the instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) are the most used and are currently recommended in clinical practice to decide whether coronary revascularization is indicated. Both techniques received the highest grade of recommendation in the latest European guidelines for myocardial revascularization in the context of intermediate or doubtful stenosis in patients with stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD).
