Anatomical Assessment vs. Pullback REsting full-cycle rAtio (RFR) Measurement for Evaluation of Focal and Diffuse CoronarY Disease: Rationale and Design of the “READY Register” [PDF]
Background: The morphology and functional severity of coronary stenosis show poor correlation. However, in clinical practice, the visual assessment of the invasive coronary angiography is still the most common means for evaluating coronary disease.

Usefulness of the Hybrid RFR-FFR Approach: Results of a Prospective and Multicenter Analysis of Diagnostic Agreement between RFR and FFR—The RECOPA (REsting Full-Cycle Ratio Comparation versus Fractional Flow Reserve (A Prospective Validation)) Study [PDF]
Background. The resting full‐cycle ratio (RFR) is a novel resting index which in contrast to the gold standard (fractional flow reserve (FFR)) does not require maximum hyperemia induction.

Clinical assessment of resting full-cycle ratio and fractional flow reserve for coronary artery disease in a real-world cohort [PDF]
BackgroundThere are few reports published on the comparison of the resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) and fractional flow reserve (FFR) on the assessment of the severity of coronary stenosis.

Increased dose of adenosine and the relationship between the resting full-cycle ratio and fractional flow reserve [PDF]
Background: Intermediate coronary artery stenosis can be evaluated with fractional flow reserve (FFR) and resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) to determine if the stenosis is functionally significant.

Fractional Flow Reserve Relates Stronger to Coronary Plaque Burden Than Nonhyperemic Pressure Indexes [PDF]
Background The relationship between fractional flow reserve (FFR), resting full‐cycle ratio (RFR), instantaneous wave‐free ratio (iFR), resting distal pressure/aortic pressure (Pd/Pa), and plaque burden as well as phenotype requires further elucidation ...

Comparison of Resting Full-Cycle Ratio and Fractional Flow Reserve in a German Real-World Cohort
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate non-hyperemic resting pressure ratios (NHPRs), especially the novel “resting full-cycle ratio” (RFR; lowest pressure distal to the stenosis/aortic pressure during the entire cardiac cycle), compared to the

Microvascular resistance reserve: insights into discordant resting and hyperemic epicardial coronary physiology [PDF]
IntroductionDiscordance between resting and hyperemic epicardial physiology is commonbut mechanistically unclear. Microvascular resistance reserve (MRR), a novelindex of vasodilatory capacity, may provide insight.

Use of physioLogy to evaluaTe procedural Result After percutaneous coronary intervention of Chronic Total Occlusion (ULTRA-CTO): protocol for a prospective, single-arm, multicentre, exploratory study [PDF]
Introduction Post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) fractional flow reserve (FFR) is associated with future major adverse cardiac events and may reflect residual ischaemia and suboptimal stent result (SSR).
