Majalah Kardiologi Indonesia, 2018 Invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) is the gold standard for guiding decision making to identify patients who would benefit from revascularization. Now, computed tomography can also do that by using computational fluid dynamics to calculate fractional

Functional assessment of a left coronary-pulmonary artery fistula by coronary flow reserve [PDF]
, 2014 We report a 71-year-old man who presented with atypical chest pain. Coronary angiography did not reveal left main or proximal left anterior descending coronary artery stenosis, but a fistulous communication with a stronger tube-like fistula was present ...

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2017 BackgroundThe instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) is a novel method to assess the ischemic potential of coronary artery stenoses. Clinical trial data have shown that iFR has acceptable diagnostic agreement with fractional flow reserve (FFR), the ...

Biomarkers of coronary endothelial health: correlation with invasive measures of collateral function, flow and resistance in chronically occluded coronary arteries and the effect of recanalization [PDF]
, 2016 Objectives: In the presence of a chronically occluded coronary artery, the collateral circulation matures by a process of arteriogenesis; however, there is considerable variation between individuals in the functional capacity of that collateral network ...

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019 Background Concerns exist about reliability of pressure‐wire‐guided coronary revascularization of non‐infarct‐related arteries (non‐IRA). We investigated whether physiological assessment of non‐IRA during the subacute phase of myocardial infarction might

Fractional Flow Reserve-Based Patient Risk Classification
Diagnostics, 2023 Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a leading cause of death. If not treated in a timely manner, cardiovascular diseases can cause a plethora of major life complications that can include disability and a loss of the ability to work.

The future of ischemic stroke: flow from prehospital neuroprotection to definitive reperfusion. [PDF]
, 2014 Recent advances in ischemic stroke enable a seamless transition of the patient flow from the prehospital setting to definitive reperfusion, without the arbitrary separation of therapeutic phases of ischemia based on time alone.

Stable coronary syndromes: pathophysiology, diagnostic advances and therapeutic need [PDF]
, 2018 The diagnostic management of patients with angina pectoris typically centres on the detection of obstructive epicardial CAD, which aligns with evidence-based treatment options that include medical therapy and myocardial revascularisation.

Safety of the Deferral of Coronary Revascularization on the Basis of Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio and Fractional Flow Reserve Measurements in Stable Coronary Artery Disease and Acute Coronary Syndromes. [PDF]
, 2018 OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical outcomes of patients deferred from coronary revascularization on the basis of instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) or fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurements in stable angina pectoris ...
