Diagnostic Performance of the Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio [PDF]
Background— Aim of the present study was to perform a meta-analysis of all available studies comparing the instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) with fractional flow reserve (FFR). Methods and Results— Published trials comparing the iFR with FFR were searched for in ...

Diabetes mellitus and long-term safety of FFR and iFR-based coronary revascularization deferral
Introduction and objectives: The safety of physiology-based revascularization in patients with diabetes mellitus has been scarcely investigated. Our objective was to determine the safety of deferring revascularization based on the fractional flow reserve

Instantaneous Wave-free Ratio versus Fractional Flow Reserve to Guide PCI [PDF]
The instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) is an index used to assess the severity of coronary-artery stenosis. The index has been tested against fractional flow reserve (FFR) in small trials, and the two measures have been found to have similar diagnostic accuracy. However, studies of clinical outcomes associated with the use of iFR are lacking. We aimed

Waves and Windkessels reviewed
Pressure and flow are travelling waves and are reflected at many locations. The forward and reflected waves, obtained by wave separation, are compound waves.

Influence of contrast media dose and osmolality on the diagnostic performance of contrast fractional flow reserve [PDF]
Background—Contrast fractional flow reserve (cFFR) is a method for assessing functional significance of coronary stenoses, which is more accurate than resting indices and does not require adenosine.
