Waves and Windkessels reviewed

open access: yesArtery Research, 2017
Pressure and flow are travelling waves and are reflected at many locations. The forward and reflected waves, obtained by wave separation, are compound waves.

Novel Humanized Biosimulator to Predict Coronary Obstruction in High-Risk Valve-in-Valve Procedures

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2023
We developed humanized biosimulator to predict the risk of coronary obstruction among high-risk patients undergoing valve-in-valve (ViV) procedures. In this case, based on unchanged instantaneous wave-free ratio values measured during a ViV simulation ...

Is the Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio Equivalent to Fractional Flow Reserve?

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2013
We read the paper by Sen et al. [(1)][1] with great interest; the study was designed to explore whether the instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) was an adenosine-free alternative to fractional flow reserve (FFR) for the assessment of coronary stenosis.

Diagnostic accuracy of instantaneous wave free‐ratio in clinical practice

open access: yesJournal of Interventional Cardiology, 2017
AimsTo evaluate the correlation between iFR and FFR in real‐world clinical practice.Methods and ResultsRetrospective, single‐centre study of 229 consecutive pressure‐wire studies (np = 158). Real‐time iFR and FFR measurements were performed for angiographically borderline stenoses.

Simplifying the Assessment of Coronary Artery Stenosis by Enhancing Instantaneous Wave Free Ratio [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Cardiovascular Diseases Supplements, 2017
Instantaneous wave free ratio (iFR) does not require adenosine, but has a relatively wide intermediate range where functional assessment remains inconclusive. In this pilot study, we sought to enhance iFR through with the use of intracoronary (IC) saline (iFRs) and contrast media (iFRc) and determine whether these techniques correlated well with ...

Impact of Age on the Functional Evaluation of Intermediate Coronary Stenoses With Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio and Fractional Flow Reserve

open access: yes, 2021
The optimal strategy for assessing the ischemic significance of intermediate coronary stenoses with adenosine-induced fractional flow reserve (FFR) and instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) is still debated.

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

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
