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

Fractional Flow Reserve: An Updated Review [PDF]
ABSTRACTRevascularization of ischemia‐producing coronary lesions is widely used in the management of coronary artery disease. However, some coronary lesions appear significant on the conventional angiogram when they are truly non–flow limiting. For this reason, it is becoming increasingly important to determine the coronary physiology.

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 ...

The Impact of Fractional Flow Reserve on Revascularization [PDF]
Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is recommended by society guidelines for assessment of the hemodynamic significance of intermediate coronary lesions when non-invasive evidence of myocardial ischemia is unavailable. However, the prevalence of FFR usage in current practice and how FFR values impact revascularization decisions are not well known.At a single-

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

Real-Life Fractional Flow Reserve [PDF]
Article, see p 2241 Rare are the approaches that have changed our understanding of coronary artery disease as has fractional flow reserve (FFR). After extensive animal and human validation work and hypothesis-generating observational studies,1 larger randomized trials with a superiority design have reshaped our therapeutic strategies in stable ...

ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

ABSTRACT Background Children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are at risk of severe outcomes from SARS‐CoV‐2 (SCV2). In the post‐pandemic context, where most children have been infected with SCV2, there are limited data on whether vaccination remains beneficial in children with ALL.
