Evaluation of Myocardial Ischemia with iFR (Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio in the Catheterization Laboratory: A Pilot Study [PDF]

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2020
Background: The Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio (iFR) is an invasive functional evaluation method that does not require vasoactive drugs to induce maximum hyperemia Objective: To evaluate the contribution of the iFR to the therapeutic decision-making of ...

Instantaneous wave-free ratio and fractional flow reserve in clinical practice. [PDF]

open access: yesNeth Heart J, 2018
To compare fractional flow reserve (FFR) and instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) measurements in an all-comer patient population with moderate coronary artery stenoses.Visual assessment of the severity of coronary artery stenoses is often discordant in moderate lesions.

Instantaneous wave-free ratio guided multivessel revascularisation during percutaneous coronary intervention for acute myocardial infarction: study protocol of the randomised controlled iMODERN trial [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2021
Introduction Recent randomised clinical trials showed benefit of non-culprit lesion revascularisation in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. However, it remains unclear whether revascularisation should be performed at the index procedure

Does the Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio Approximate the Fractional Flow Reserve?

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2013
This study sought to examine the clinical performance of and theoretical basis for the instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) approximation to the fractional flow reserve (FFR).Recent work has proposed iFR as a vasodilation-free alternative to FFR for making mechanical revascularization decisions.
